My stomach is screwed up. Consuming beef sticks and trail mix all day Wednesday and all day Saturday did not make my stomach happy. I just need to not purchase nuts when I’m traveling. I eat them, they don’t fill me up, so then I eat more. Then I just get fat. Stupid.
I traveled to Boston last week. Sad to say I didn’t get to see a ton of Boston. We landed. Went to Whole Foods to get the food I would be cooking that week, then went to the house we were going to film at. So I saw Boston for a good 6.2 minutes. But I did get to go to the AgainFaster office and meet some awesome people, so I can’t complain. All in all, it was a good trip. I filmed 7 cooking videos, learned a butt load from a professional chef AND crossfitter named Bryce, then got to read The Hunger Games while I flew all over the place. LIKE!
Turns out, I don’t really know what I’m doing in the kitchen. Well, you already knew that, but being next to a professional chef makes me even more incompetent. I burnt garlic for gosh sakes. This man, Chef Bryce, went to culinary school and has worked all over in the food industry. I, on the other hand, am excited if I don’t cut half of my finger off every time I’m cooking. He even taught me how to properly cut an onion! How exciting! I did half way fall in love with him when he made a chocolate coconut macadamia nut brittle. It was pretty similar to my Chocolate Coconut Bark but with much more expensive chocolate. Oh he fancy huh?!
So, here’s the thing. If you go back to some of my first recipes, from back in the day, before I was an actual website, and before I talked incessantly about myself and my life, you will find some delicious recipes. The problem is, back then I was working from 4am-9pm, not coming home in between and only was able to take picture in the dark. So my food looks like dog doo doo. And people tend to not flock towards those meals. So vain. Such a shame. So I’m bringing them back. Like a blast from the past. But in food form. So check out the first time I made Mushroom Gravy Slow Cooked Rump Roast and see with your own eyes how gorgeous my pictures were back in the day!

I have a question…I HATE coconut and I’m trying to switch over to Paleo, but everything seems to have coconut milk/oil. Does this pick up a coconut flavor? I’m scared to try because of my fear of coconut….
It doesn’t have much coconut flavor in it actually BranDee! It cooks off quite a bit
I’m actually allergic to coconut. What can I substitute this with? I hate that almost everything has coconut in it. Thanks!
almond milk may work, just won’t thicken up quite the same
Wow this was delicious! Okay, I didn’t follow the instructions exactly. I cooked in it my clay baker, not having a slow cooker and omitted the coconut milk because I didn’t have any. I used chantarelles, too. What I got was an amazing soup! I then I mixed in a little cream into a bit of the liquid, and got a lovely cream of mushroom soup. I know, not totally paleo. But totally scrumptious. Now I can’t wait to try it again with coconut milk. And maybe a slow cooker….if I get one. Thank you for the recipe!
My husband and I made this last night!…okay, just my husband made it, but I suggested it. So good! I’m one of those people that absolutely loves the broth that’s left over in the crockpot, and I was one happy camper. Beef, mushrooms, and onions? Basically a classic.
Feeling a little crummy today but still needed to out something on for dinner. This was SO EASY!! It looks amazing and cant wait to have this for dinner. Perfect comfort food. I had to use my dutch oven because my roast was huge but no biggie. My house is going to smell so good when my husband gets home! What do you recommend for a paleo side with this? Or does it even need one?
naaaaa its great by itself
Im cooking this right now. It looks soooo yummy and smells soooo good I cant wait to try it!! I love ur recipies. This is the 3rd one I’v made. For someone who is only 3 weeks into Paleo they are also very easy for me to cook. Love it.
making this tonight Juli! It is cooking while I am working my butt off & reading your amazing blog! Thanks for the great recipe! My family & friends thank you to because I always pass on your recipes to them! 🙂
hope you like it!!
This was so easy and delicious! I will definitely be sharing with my friends. I took some of the liquid out of the crockpot and let it simmer on the stove with a little arrowroot, to thicken, and added some sweet potatoes as well. Super yummy and was the perfect meal for a rainy day:)
I used beef broth instead and added some carrots… Definitely omg delicious! It’s recipes like tis that are selling hubby on eating Paleo!
Bryce is the man – He used to coach at Back Bay and now he owns his own gym, Fulcrum Athletics down in Attleboro. Hopefully you have more time in Boston this go around. You need to get on a duck boat!
quick question! i have this in the crockpot right now… and i’m concerned that the coconut milk is not going to blend well… looks a bit “chunky”… will this get better as it cooks longer or what to do??
I’m guessing it’s chunky because the coconut milk has separated in the can. It should even out just fine as it heats up!
Amazing!!! I didn’t eat meat for 20 years, so making a roast was way outside of my comfort zone. You made it so easy for me! My husband has requested I make this once a week. Thanks for constantly putting out amazing recipes. You always seem to know what I want to eat!
