Crepes are something that we make for breakfast on every birthday. I couldn't go without crepes, because they are a family tradition.  I created this recipe to be similar to the crepes I used to eat. They taste SO good! They are so easy to make, just blend all the ingredients together and your done!  Grain free and Paleo Crepes   Makes 12-14 crepes Ingredients 6 Eggs  1 C.

Grease your grill or pan with coconut oil.  Pour 1/4 to 1/3 C. of batter on your grill or pan. You will know when they are ready to flip when the top is no longer shiny. Once flipped they don't take very long to cook. I use a pancake spatula to flip these.      Serve

Moist Grain Free & Paleo Carrot Cake

I have been wanting to make carrot cake for a LONG time. It is one of my favorites! I created this recipe to have a moist and fluffy cake. It turned out so delicious!   I had an idea for creating "cream cheese" frosting with no dairy, I was getting so eager to try it out. I thought that a carrot cake was the perfect cake to go with it.
