I’m really into dried figs right now. They remind me of when I was younger and ate the sh*t out of Fig Newtons. Holy balls those lil’ cookies of happiness really got me going. I could easily eat a whole box of those. Who am I kidding, I could STILL eat a whole box. The seeds give a little crunch to a soft cookie and make life wonderful. People who don’t like Fig Newtons know nothing. But if you don’t like the cookie version….how about the dried fruit version? Stupid good.
Anywho, I’m talking so much about cookies BECAUSE there are literally 9 DOZEN cookies sitting on top of my microwave on the counter. No, they are not paleo. Yes, they are pure sugar and flour. And yes, they make me drool everytime I walk by them. And think about how many times I walk through the kitchen in one day…holy crap…that’s a lot of drooling. Mopping the floor is easy, I guess. Terrible joke. But seriously, these cookies never leave. That’s probably because my roommates are extremely thin and have something called self control. I have self control in the fact that I just make paleo desserts instead. Or consume mass amounts of dried figs. Or pecan coconut butter. Sh*t that stuff is good. Just you wait. JUST YOU WAIT.
You know what’s weird? Old Navy commercials. Really weird.

Made this today and loved it. Not sure it’s the best meal for a 99 degree day, but it was amazing. Thank you!
Made this for dinner last night and it was wonderful! I think next time I’ll cut the meat a little because I had spaghetti length shreds of meat that we had to twirl around on forks. OR use the meat as spaghetti noodles and top with meat sauce. Hmmmmm…..
This was spicy and AWESOME! I also had some over broccoli for breakfast.
Word of warning: wear gloves or something when cutting up those peppers. I touched my eyelid after washing my hands and it still felt like the devil had spit in my eye. True story.
Well, made this combination two weeks ago and I didn’t follow instructions, I used chicken and it turned out more like soup…great soup but nonetheless, that’s what I get! I added a little cheese on the top for the kiddo….which, I know isn’t paleo but there was tons and Sometimes a tablespoon of cheese goes a long way. Great blog J.. Love the stories, can’t imagine the time and effort
Made this overnight and my house smelled like ‘yum’ by 5am when I got up for class.
I added a bag of shredded cabbage to get a little more veggie action and am sitting here eating it for breakfast after an awesome workout!!
Excellent recipe! Julie, can’t wait to try more! I WILL absolutely be sharing this recipe and this website in general with everyone I know and probably some random strangers that I inevitably begin conversations with like in the grocery store or waiting in any kind of line:)
This is totally kick a$$!!
Wow! I stumbled across your recipe yesterday, and have already shared it with two other friends. This was amazing!! Usually, something this good requires a lot more work. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe. It was great in the Colorado heat, but I’m pretty sure it will be even better in the middle of a Colorado winter. 🙂
Looks amazing! Making this this week!! 🙂 Can’t wait!
Try using your own chilies and dicing them up – also used fresh tomatoes – my apartment smelled like a little slice of heaven this morning. Add and egg to a good heaping spoon fool and instant amazing breakfast! Thanks so much! Welcome Fall!
Made this last night & it cooked overnight so my house smells amazing because of it! Even my jacket smelled like it, so I got to take the yum smell with me in the car!
Such an easy recipe & love the spices! Couldn’t find white pepper, will have to track that down. I’m now sorta obsessed with your blog & recipes & your humor, thanks for all you do!
Made this dish…excellent and super easy. I ate this on top of some sweet potato hash and an egg on top. Will try more of your recipes!
Juli you make me so angry because I got jalapeño in my eye while I made this. So angry but I still love your blog and recipes!
been there. many, many time. more so in my nose than eye.
