Easy Paleo Gluten-Free Banana Bread Muffins

Wednesday, December 3, 2014

Today I suck less at making healthy treats for my son... and me!

I'm halfway through my Whole30 journey which will become a WholeLife! I've found this way of eating to be easy, fun, and great on my body. No more major stomach issues, I'm sleeping better, and easily losing that extra 5lbs.

Once I'm done, I'll be adding these little treats into my diet. I don't want to go back to my chocolate binges, but I need a little something sweet in the afternoon.
These banana bread muffins are really easy to make and my son loves them too! I'll be doing a follow-up post with raw cacao in these babies. The best part -- NO FLOUR and NO ADDED SUGAR. And they still taste great!

Thai-rrific Curry Quinoa

Thursday, August 14, 2014

Today I suck less at making white people Thai food.

I LOVE Thai food. I have some serious wanderlust for a trip to Thailand but, we'll save that for another post. Last night I was craving curry so I decided to give it a go and make my first Thai dish. Yes, this is a total white person version and I know I have an abundance of quinoa dishes. But, you've gotta start somewhere right? So, here is the Thai-rrific dish I came up with from what I had in my kitchen already.

Ingredients
  • 1 lb Chicken Breast cut into thin slices
  • 1 can Coconut Milk
  • Ghee for the stir-fry
  • 1 bag frozen Broccoli
  • 1 bunch of fresh Spinach
  • 2 tbs Curry Powder
  • 1 tbs Ginger (fresh would be best but, I didn't have any)
  • 1/2 tbs Turmeric
  • 2 tbs of Chili paste
  • 1 cup of Quinoa cooked

Wash and slice Chicken Breast. Cook your quinoa. There is a big debate on whether or not you should wash your Chicken. I'll let you decide.
Wash and chop Spinach.
 Combine Coconut Milk, Curry Powder, Ginger, Turmeric, and Chili Paste.
 Heat Ghee and Stir-fry your Chicken until cooked through.
 Steam your Broccoli while you cook the Chicken.
 Remove Chicken and drain pan. Add Broccoli and Sauce, then add the Chicken and Spinach.
Pour over your cooked Quinoa and Enjoy!
