Bill and Hayley are known as the go-to source for information on the Paleo diet. They started off with The Food Lovers Primal Palate in 2010 and are now the bestselling authors of Make it Paleo, The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking.
The book focuses on simple, delicious recipes and beautiful photography. Bill & Hayley share their passion for dining, entertaining, and healthy living with others. We asked them to share a Paleo recipe they felt was perfect for the fall and Hayley told us: “My dad doesn’t cook often, but when he does, the result is something to behold. He has been making his famous chiffon pumpkin pie for the better part of four decades. It was bold on our part to reinvent this recipe as a grain-free alternative, but after some refinement, it finally got Dad’s seal of approval. This is sure to be a staple at our holiday dinners for years to come”
