Paleo Turkey Tacos

Leave a comment

These Paleo Turkey Tacos, also known as “Super Clean Turkey Tacos” are a simple and delicious way to get a nutritious dinner on the table, without the unwanted carbs and grease that come with a traditional taco.

For something a little more filling, some diced red potatoes or yams would go great mixed into the turkey. You can use traditional Mexican pickled vegetables, or your favorite sauerkraut from the Farmers Market or grocery store. I used Wildbrine Organic Red Cabbage Sauerkraut and it was delicious!

Vegan-Paleo Squash Blossom Fritters

2 Comments

“Vegan-Paleo Squash Blossom
Fritters” is about as complete a description as I could get for these
very interesting, chewy-yet-crisp treats that were basically an experiment.
But I guess that is how it’s supposed to work on here, right? I started
thinking I was going to make a gluten-free, vegan squash blossom pancake, but
the texture of these, coming from the tapioca flour, is definitely more
“fritter”- like. These seem best right out of the oven, but I’ll
bet they would be great cold or reheated also. The problem is, I gobbled them
up so fast I didn’t have any to save for later, so now I have to wait until I
get some more fresh squash blossoms on my hands. Technically, these only
fulfill the ingredient guidelines of being “Paleo.” In order to be
truly paleo from a macronutrient standpoint, they wouldn’t be so heavy on
carbs. But, they are gluten, grain, dairy free and totally vegan as well. So
enjoy these as a healthier indulgence and as a great way to enjoy the
season’s squash, zucchini and other blossoms from the garden or the Farmers
Market. I’ll bet the chewy texture of these is unique from many things you
have tried before. Read More

Radish Tops and Beet Greens Tacos

Leave a comment

Don’t
throw away your radish tops! Sometimes I get a bunch of radishes or beets
with a really healthy, abundant supply of greens attached to the top. For
some asinine reason, we have been hard-wired in our culture to throw those
greens out. But they are full of both macro and micro nutrients and
phyto-chemicals; and if done right, can be made into the star ingredient of a
variety of dishes. In this particular case, I made my radish tops and beet
greens into nutrient-dense, vegan tacos. You don’t need to wait to get a
healthy head or radish tops to try this though. Just about any kind of root
vegetable greens or other leafy greens will work just as well as the radish
tops. Enjoy! Read More
