Real Food Recipes

When it’s time to host a family dinner, whether it’s an intimate affair of immediate members or a night where your home is bursting with tables, chairs, and bodies, take a page from the Italians and keep the conversation loud and light, and the food simple but good for the soul. 

Our sweet potato avocado toast is topped with a sunny side up egg fried in avocado oil until its edges are lightly bronzed and crusty but canary yolk still drippy when pierced. Drizzle with avocado oil to allow the combination to linger on your tongue, and you have a well-rounded, Whole30-Approved meal ready in 30 minutes.

Whether you’re looking for a dairy-free or gluten-free twist on the lasagna of your childhood, or you’re looking for ways to include more veggies in your meals, we’ve got you covered with this Whole30 lasagna recipe. It features cashew cheese instead of traditional dairy, and it swaps the typical noodles for something totally unique. Check out the recipe to see what it is!

Spaghetti with meatballs is as soothing to make as it is to eat. We upgraded the classic to make it lower carb with zoodles, and Whole30 and paleo approved with our Roasted Garlic Marinara Sauce with no added sugar. Our homemade, rich meatballs are ones you'll want to add into your regular meal prep rotation.

For evenings when time seems too short to finish science projects, finalize reports for tomorrow’s work day, and fold the laundry that’s been sitting in the dryer for three days, try these quick-cook dinner recipes. You can have a delicious meal made with high-quality ingredients on the table in 30 minutes or less.

If you’re planning to start a Whole30 and would like to make the transition a little easier and more convenient, check out all of the amazing Whole30 recipes you can create with the Primal Kitchen line of Whole30-Approved oils, dressings, vinaigrettes and marinades, sauces, and condiments.

These basic but meaty, zippy, umami, a touch salty and deeply savory grilled portobello mushrooms are the perfect stand-in for meat as a main dish; a complimentary accent to serve alongside a grill-crusted rib eye; or a keto, Primal/paleo and Whole30 bun substitute for a garlic aioli burger, pulled chicken slider, or salmon cakes.

Loaded with big, bold flavors, these easy recipes with our Italian Vinaigrette and no-dairy Dreamy Italian Dressing are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner. From one-skillet meals to Instant Pot classics, salads, and pasta dishes, there's a recipe to satisfy every craving.

When we set out to uncover which of our keto-friendly recipes were fan favorites, we were surprised that preferences were all over the culinary map. No shockers that our sweet treats were hits, but we also found that purely Primal standbys like bone marrow stood their ground in a sea of keto-fied comfort food makeovers.

Whip up this easy, inspired soup in the AirFryer in just 30 minutes. Primal Kitchen Sesame Ginger Dressing marries harmoniously with the liquid that leaches from the beef meatballs to create a heady, aromatic broth that’s rich in umami.

We tweaked traditional pasta primavera substantially—instead of cheese, we whipped up an herby cashew sauce; instead of pasta, we used zoodles; instead of a huge mix of different veggies, we opted to let the zucchini be the focal point. We added fresh shrimp cooked with lemon zest to our no-dairy remake, but if you want to keep the dish vegan, you can sub roasted broccoli and toasted walnuts or almonds.

You can have dinner that everyone will love on the table in just 15 minutes. All it takes is browning some meat, adding some veggies and sauces to the mix, then layering on even more flavor with some chopped nuts, toasted sesame seeds, and fresh lime juice. One-pot dinner for the win!

Our Keto Buffalo Wings are every bit as crispy-skinned, tender-on-the-inside, spicy and sexed-up as the most crave-worthy wings out there. We used an AirFryer to get the right texture (no deep-fried bath in cheap seed oils here!), and whipped up a finger-licking-good hot sauce made with our Primal Kitchen Spicy Ketchup to coat the wings.

Chicken wings are a go-to snack for game days, parties, and even fun family nights. This tasty take on the sports bar staple is air-fried rather than deep-fried and coated with our delicious no-soy Teriyaki Sauce & Marinade for classic wings with less mess and more sweet teriyaki flavor.

Every cook should have a trustworthy and simple stew recipe that they can make time and again and feel confident it will satiate and satisfy. Even if you’re cooking for one, stews make great freezer-friendly meals you can portion and stash in freezer bags to have at the ready.
