Five Spice Paleo Noodles

Asian inspired Five Spice Paleo Noodles make use of one of our favorite tools in the kitchen… the Spiralizer.

If you want a little more, and why wouldn’t you… just double up the portion and make this a main dish.

Nutty Broccoli, with a Mustard Kick

Vibrant greens with a little punch and a sweet crunch. Nutty Broccoli is one of those sides that looks and tastes amazing with a simple meal or as part of a banquet table. I love to put this out for the family at Thanksgiving, Christmas or just on a weekday evening. I enjoy broccoli with some bite to it, so don’t overdo the steaming/boiling of the florets at the start, plus the green color when its cooked just right really brightens up any dish.

Coronation Chicken Salad

Said to have been prepared for the Coronation Banquet of Queen Elizabeth II, this creamy, and tasty chicken salad is at home in flat breads, lettuce wraps, or on it's own! Although traditionally prepared with cold chicken, raisins, herbs and curry spices... we've made a few modifications to increase the fats and keep the carbs to a minimum.

Almond butter chocolate cups!  YUM!

If you’d like to add a little kick, then 1 tsp of cayenne pepper goes really well in this dish, but does mean it wouldn’t be nightshade free
