Sometimes it's hard to make sure I get enough veggies in my day. Plus, with kids, it's near impossible to get them to eat any! This recipe incorporates a bunch of great veggies, is egg & gluten free, and completely delicious.
This is a simple dish that my family enjoys. I will often heat leftover grilled chicken for this recipe to make it even easier. It is a GREAT source of protein as well as monounsaturated fatty acids or MUFAs.
Our sauce today: Alfredo sauce! Yes, this classic from Fettuccini Alfredo works for a wide variety of different applications. Chicken of all varieties, fish, veggies, etc. A pork chop smothered in this is pretty darned good. The recipe is pretty darned easy. Please for the love of all that is Holy, buy yourself a wedge of Parmegiano Regiano cheese, grate it yourself, and stay AWAY from the green can. You will thank you.
Inspired by Abeeba the Krazy Kracker lady on you tube and KrazyKrackerLady.com I decided to try mixing up some crazy crackers of my own. I created this recipe because I'm allergic to carrots which so many people put into crackers. So I replaced them with the parsnip and beet combo and I like it! These go in the dehydrator, but if you do not have one, you can make them on a silicone baking mat or on any glass bake ware in your oven at the lowest temp you can set it. If you wish to make them the "RAW Foodist" way and do not have a dehydrator, then use tin foil crumpled up and placed in the side of the oven door to prop it open about an inch, to let some of the heat out. This will definitely use more energy. The idea being, if the food is prepared below 118 degrees, it's nutrients will remain intact and at their most digestible state so your body can use it most easily (in my understanding) I have also cooked them at 170, the lowest my oven will go, and they are delicious, but not quite as flavorful as in the dehydrator.
Wonderful spicy and fun dish using Hunt's Zesty and Spicy Sauce (sorry for the title mistake) as a base.
A quick and easy salad with italian flavors. This went great with the italian sausage dish we had for dinner. I sprinkled a little balsamic vinegar over it, and put chopped walnuts on Patch and Carlie's servings for some added crunch, and healthy fat
