Paleo Broccoli Salad

January 15, 2015 By Natasha Leave a Comment

Paleo Broccoli Salad

Broccoli Salad. I know this isn’t quite something you’d think of for the middle of January, but I got it stuck in my head, and had to make it. So there’s that. My version has a few twists in it but still reminds you of that classic Broccoli Salad that your aunt or somebody would bring over to the summer potluck!

I don’t care for raisins. Like not one bit, so I subbed in organic dried goji berries and still achieved that little hint of sweetness in the dish. …

Sweet Potato, Bacon, Egg Breakfast Skillet

Sweet Potato, Bacon, Egg Breakfast Skillet

Sweet Potato, Bacon, Egg Breakfast Skillet

I love sweet potatoes.  And bacon.  And eggs.  Especially when you add all 3 of these ingredients together in a cast iron skillet.  The sweetness of the sweet potatoes with the saltiness of the bacon, and that gooey yolk that acts like a sauce.  Here’s an easy recipe that incorporates all 3 ingredients together along with some smoky chipotle seasoning. Enjoy this for breakfast, or really any meal of the day! I use FlavorGod Chipotle seasoning, however you may use a combination of sea salt, cracked pepper, chipotle powder and cumin to achieve a nice smoky flavor with a little bit of heat. In addition to using FlavorGod in all my dishes, I also love using OMGhee brand ghee, however you may choose to use regular butter instead.  Ghee is made from butter that has been heated and the milk solids and water removed.  I have switched to using butter made from grass-fed/pasture raised cows, such as Kerrygold, due to the health benefits versus grain fed cows.

Quick and Easy Paleo Shrimp Tacos

Paleo Shrimp Tacos

I like TACOS. Like, I really like them.  I could eat them on the daily, but especially on Taco Tuesdays! Shrimp tacos cook super fast, so this recipe is great when you need a quick dinner! I like to always have a bag of frozen, uncooked shrimp in my freezer because they are super easy to defrost in a pinch. 

For the shrimp, my favorite way to cook them is in the oven under the broiler for approximately 6 minutes.  It’s fast and hassle free.  I melt some ghee and my seasonings and toss the thawed shrimp to coat both sides.  Then lay them flat on a foil lined baking sheet for easy clean up.  You know the shrimp are cooked when they turn pink.

For the tortillas, I used Stupid Easy Paleo’s recipe for Simple Paleo Tortillas.  They are stupid easy! And so good!

For the Cumin-Lime Crema, I used the recipe from the Tacolicious’ cookbook.  When I’m in SF every other week, I enjoy going to TLish for some Taco Tuesday!!

For the salsa, I made a Fall inspired Pomegranate Apple Mango Salsa.  This may seem to be an unlikely combo, but trust me, it worked!
