Whole30, Paleo & Good REAL Food
Who loves chocolate covered macadamia nuts?? Then this nut butter is for you! It’s so easy and delicious.
RECIPE: Roast 1 cup of macadamia nuts and 1 cup of cashews at 350* for 8-10 mins. Put 3-4 large pitted dates, 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tbsp coconut oil, pinch of salt and the nuts into your @blendtec twister jar and blend!
This one’s for my girlfriends who say they don’t have time to cook a healthy meal. 15 minutes start to finish. It’s not paleo but still pretty healthy in my books.
RECIPE: Aidell’s teriyaki and pineapple chicken meatballs (I get these at Costco) chopped red bell peppers, canned pineapple and some pineapple juice and some coconut aminos. Throw into pan and cook till warmed through. Put on top of quinoa or rice of choice.
Green piña colada: pineapple juice, lite canned coconut milk, spinach and ice.
My family loves this meal!!
Let’s call this “lazy caprese salad” because it seriously took me less than 5 minutes to throw together.
RECIPE: Cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese (you know it’s fresh when it’s watery and soft, 1 scoop of pesto from Costco and drizzle of balsamic glaze from trader joes.
To make paleo/whole30 subtract the cheese, make your own pesto or just basil leaves and use oil and balsamic vinegar. Simple and delicious is my motto for summer lunches.
Holy YUM! These baked banana egg white pancakes hit the spot and definitely had a more traditional pancake texture than my Paleo German pancakes.
RECIPE: 2 eggs plus 7 egg whites, 1 ripe banana, 1/8 c maple syrup (optional) 1 tbsp coconut flour. Blend in blender. Cook at 375* in greased pan or cast iron skillet for 25-30 mins. The last 5 mins I threw some frozen berries on top. Serve as is or with some more maple syrup…. I get a little out of control when I’m eating Paleo.
Kid friendly fruit and veggie Popsicles. My little girls LOVED them, especially since they helped make them. I love giving them treats that are actually healthy!
