Scrambled Eggs with Avocado and Salsa

Scrambled eggs really aren’t that hard or time-consuming to make. People think you have to mix the eggs ahead of time, but you can just quickly stir them a few times while cooking and they’ll become scrambled - Amazing!

We like mixing two Omega-3 Eggs with ½ cup Egg Whites and adding Spinach. Then, top with slices of avocado and fresh salsa. It’s a quick breakfast fit for a king (or queen).

A New Twist on Chicken Fingers

Yummy Chicken Fingers

This one was super easy and kid friendly! Before I explain this recipe, let me tell you ahead of time that it is not 100% Paleo. Although we try to stick to a fairly strict Paleo diet, we do enjoy small amounts of whole grains here and there. However there is very little bread in this recipe. If you are a Paleo Nazi you might want to try almond meal or gluten free bread.

For the bread crumbs, I toasted 3 slices of bread and combined my organic flaked coconut in a food processor until it was the consistency of bread crumbs. I did make 3lbs chicken breast because I am feeding my family of six, so I think 2 slices of bread would be enough for the 2 lbs it calls for. Here it is…..

You will need:

• 2lbs Chicken sliced thin (like you would for any chicken fingers)
  
• Even amounts of bread crumbs and coconut combined
  
• One egg beaten and a little milk mixed together
  
• ½ tsp curry, ¼ tsp cinnamon, pinch of salt and pinch of pepper combined
  
• Olive oil

Once you get your chicken cut up sprinkle the spice mixture on it. Then dip the chicken in the egg mixture and roll in your bread crumb mixture. Place on the pan that you coated with olive oil. Cook at 375 degrees for about 25 min. THAT’S IT! Easy…ENJOY!

Chicken Satay

So, here is the first recipe on our new blog. I am trying to stick with inexpensive, quick meals that the whole family can enjoy. Feeding a family of six and making it so that everyone enjoys it can sometimes be challenge. However, if you teach them when they’re young to eat a variety of vegetables and things other than mac and cheese and hotdogs, they usually don’t complain too much.The recipe for today came from one of the many paleo sites on the web. There are several with some really great, simple recipes and most are completely free!

The main dish was chicken satay. (I made an extra serving and it was just enough for the six of us) It was fairly easy to prepare and turned out pretty tasty. Here’s what you need:

• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 3 tbs olive oil, divided
• 3 tbs lemon juice, divided
• 4 large boneless skinless chicken-breasts (about 1 1/2 bs)
• 1 medium-size onion
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/3 cup almond butter

Combine cumin, salt, 2 tbs oil, 2 tbs lemon juice, add chicken and marinate10 minutes. Broil chicken until tender, flipping when halfway done.For the sauce: Heat 1 tbs oil over medium heat and saute the onion until golden, stir in water, garlic powder, and 1 tbs lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Remove pan from heat and beat in almond butter until melted. Serve warm. 4 adult servings.

For the side dish I made some steamed carrots and added honey and dill. Very yummy!

I am known for adding some raw spinach on the side as a standard staple for just about every meal, and top it off with some olive oil and vinegar. The whole meal was satisfying and filling.

No meal is complete without a glass of wine.
