So the other night, when Laura, Sergio, and I went to club it up, I had this lotion that I put on because I thought it smelled awesome. Like for reals good. It’s that kind of lotion you put on and instantly feel more attractive because you’re oozing smells of lust. That’s how I would explain it at least. So I squeezed on some of the lotion and instantly asked Sergio to tell me how good I smelled….he said I smelled like a stripper. WINNING. Not really.

Speaking of things that smell….my friend Jake got his stolen car back a couple days ago…I don’t think it smells ok in there. Wanna know why? This is why, please read Jake’s facebook status:

“well…3 weeks later, they found my truck. on top of that they got the guys who did it, along with 5 back packs full of meth, 2 hatchets, 1 sword, a bunch of stolen goods….and gay porn and lube.”

You can imagine what the comments were like to that status. I couldn’t stop laughing. It’s not that funny, it’s actually REALLY scary, but still. It’s kinda funny. He’s getting a new truck. They had to clean needles out of it. That’s even more scary. And not funny. Sorry Jake. I’m a bad friend.

I’ve come to a decision about something. Recently, I tried to back off the coffee and start drinking some tea. I don’t know why. I do dumb sh*t like this. I like caffeine. Like a lot. And I like the taste of coffee. Tea taste like dirty water. Seriously. Don’t write me telling me about tea that tastes good because the only tea that gets me going is tea that is filled with 1/3 cup of honey. So really, sugar water is what gets me going.  I’m easy to shop for.

    Felt like the three bears in my household tonight with this recipe.
    My father absolutely hated it and was very vocal about itl- but what can you expect from a bland meat and potatoes eating 85 yr old?!
    For me it was a little on the spicy side- but I’m a spicy wimp. When my mouth was chilled out a bit from the burning I very much enjoyed the flavors.
    My husband absolutely LOVED this, spice and all and is excited my dad hated it because it means more left overs for him, lol!

    I couldn’t wait to make this, and I just devoured a HUGE helping of it for lunch. My mouth is on fire, but I’m all smiles- This was awesome! Thanks so much for keeping beginner Paleos like me on track with amazing recipes- you rock!

    I’m always looking for new paleo crock pot recipes. We love making paleo enchiladas – making them in the crock pot will be even simpler. Thanks for the recipe!

    LOVE THIS. My 1 year old even ate it. She likes things a little spicy but the avacado breaks the heat. We added sweet potato chips as “crackers”. Delish!






    1. juli says:

      That’s awesome that a 1 year old will eat it!!! You’ve got a good child right there!

    This was so easy and turned out really delicious. I made the mistake of cooking it overnight and I kept waking up because it smelled so darn good! Very happy with this recipe and will definitely make it again in the future!






    1. juli says:

      Lol I slightly hate waking up to the smell of meat in the middle of the night. It keeps me awake, in a bad way

  10. Suzy says:

    Um yeah. I made this the other day and it was to die for!!! Although I couldn’t find a 4oz can of jalapenos so I just used 2 cans of green chilies. Which is OK because I am a wimp when it comes to heat.

    I think you should change the name of your blog to PaleOMGoddess! Because you are a goddess for sure! I wish I lived with you. You wouldn’t mind me and my two sons and two dogs would you? 😀
