Creative, Healthy and Delicious Paleo-inspired Meals
If you read my last post you know that my husband and I are on a five week fitness reboot challenge. I'm happy to say we've completed week two and are feeling stronger and healthier! Food is a big part of this challenge and I've became more adventurous by trying ingredients I don't normally use such as cauliflower and zucchini. Here are some of my favorites dishes. Enjoy!
BREAKFAST
Cauliflower tortilla toped with eggs, bacon, and bell peppers
Sausage, asparagus and baked eggs. Cook the sausage first then add asparagus with salt and black pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Crack eggs on top of the asparagus and then broil for 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle red chill pepper on top before serving.
LUNCH
Leftover salad bowl. Steamed broccoli, diced cucumber, radish, pineapple, roasted potatoes, and pork adobo over romaine lettuce.
Brussels sprouts with bacon and mushroom. Recipe here
DINNER
Polpette Di Vitello. Recipe here
Don't they look fantastic? My kids couldn't stop eating them!
Zucchini noodles.
Zucchini noodles with Polpette di vitello and pesto sauce. To make zucchini noodles I highly recommend this.
Pork chops with my homemade pesto sauce (one cup of basil, 1/4 cup of almonds, 3 cloves of garlic, salt, black pepper, and 1/2 cup of olive oil) Blend them together till all ingredients are mixed.
It was so good that my father in law, a true meat and potato Oklahoman, thought the pork sat atop mashed potatoes!
