Mediterranean superstars - feta cheese, olives, and pesto - unite in this creamy easy to make chicken dish.
Chicken stays moist if you cook it with the skin on, but the skin itself is high in fat. So before eating, remove the skin from your piece and rub it over the meat to transfer the herb flavoring. Then discard that skin.
Blueberry Muffins 2
1 3/4 C almond flour = 175 g
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp stevia = 1/2 C sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 C vegetable oil
100 g frozen blueberries I always weigh my fruits as you just cant be consistent trying to use a measuring cup with them
Preheat your oven to 350F and put muffin papers into your muffin pan. I got 10 muffins from this recipe.
In a large mixing bowl put all the dry ingredients and mix well with a whisk to remove the lumps. In another bowl put all the wet ingredients and mix them well with a fork. Dump the wet mixture into the dry and whisk to blend well.
Fold in the blueberries and fill the muffin papers about 2/3 full. Now pop them into your oven and bake for 35 minutes. They will come out a lovely golden brown 🙂
Let the muffins sit for a couple minutes in the pan then turn them out to cool. Do NOT eat them straight from the oven as the hot blueberries will burn your mouth. I give them at least 5 minutes before I shove one at my face. Warm muffins are so awesome!

Ingredients
1 1/2 Cup Almond Flour we get ours on amazon
6 Large eggs Separated
4 tbsp Butter melted
3 tsp Baking powder We use this!
1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar It's ok if you don't have this - We use this!
1 pinch salt
Servings:
20
Slices
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Add Cream of Tartar to the whites and beat until soft peaks are achieved.
In a food processor combine the egg yolks, butter, almond flour, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined. This will be a lumpy thick dough until the whites are added. Combine in two parts to ensure thorough mixing.
Add 1/3 of the beaten egg whites to the almond flour mixture and process until mixed.
Add the remaining 2/3 of the egg whites and gently process until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix as this is what gives the bread it's volume!
Pour mixture into a buttered 8x4 loaf pan. Bake for 30 minutes. Check with a toothpick to ensure the bread is cooked through. Enjoy! 1 loaf makes 20 slices.

A garlicky chopped mushroom salad that can be a base for many Russian salads. Try mixing in 4 chopped eggs or your regular egg salad. Add small pieces of cooked cauliflower for a version of a Russian mushroom "potato salad".
my version of Watergate Salad omits the marshmallows and adds cottage cheese for a higher protein treat.
