These are my favorites to replace regular breads, both plain and sweet as well as some brownies and cake recipes. Again I have to give credit to Elana Amsterdam over at elanaspantry.com I could practice and fail until I find a good one, but she has pretty much nailed most of these already so why should I re-invent the wheel when she does it so well!!

EAT CLEAN IN 2016 CHALLENGE!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL! I hope you all enjoyed your new years celebration!! Now it’s time to make those resolutions and this year STICK with it. If you are reading this you may have made a resolution to live a bit healthier this year. That is why I have decided to challenge you to EAT CLEAN in 2016!
This week’s recipes are comprised, most if not all, from a blogger I have been following for some time now. Elana Amsterdam. She has a site that follows the PALEO diet pretty strictly. You can find more of her recipes at ElanasPantry. She happened to post an entire weeks worth of breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes that I cannot say enough good things about.
TIPS
I’ll keep them short this week since I am doing 3 meals a day for a full 7 days.
TIP#1 Remember this is not a diet!! It is a clean eating, healthy, whole foods lifestyle. You may experience weight loss due to the fact that your body with start to rid itself of toxins that are in processed foods. Those toxins cause bloating and poor digestion.
TIP #2 Eating clean, whole foods do not contain processed sugars and starchy carbs like pasta and potato that many of us are used to eating. Stay away form those and you will most likely experience weight loss as well.
Be sure to read over the menu, and note that on Saturday I give you a couple of options. I only includes the first option on the shopping list, if you want option 2 or 3 you will need to add those ingredients to the list yourself.
To begin this week bake a turkey breast on Saturday evening and fry up a package of beef, pork or turkey bacon and put it away to be used throughout the week in various ways.
SUNDAY
BREAKFAST – Grain Free Pancakes(Einkorn, an ancient grain or for true, no grain use Almond Meal Flour), Turkey, beef or pork bacon and a bowl of fresh berries
LUNCH – Turkey Club, sliced from your cooked turkey breast (using a grain free organic bread) OR I suggest using two slices of tomato and lettuce leaves to replace the bun. Slap a bit of honey mustard onto the turkey and add some of your cooked bacon. It wouldn’t hurt to add a side salad to your lunch.
DINNER – Wasabi Salmon Patties(these are mine) or Salmon Burgers(ElanasPantry) with a side of steamed broccoli and a salad.
MONDAY
BREAKFAST – 2 sides grain free toast, scrambled eggs, grapefruit
LUNCH – Turkey Club, sliced from your cooked turkey breast (using a grain free organic bread) OR I suggest using two slices of tomato and lettuce leaves to replace the bun. Slap a bit of honey mustard onto the turkey and add some of your cooked bacon. It wouldn’t hurt to add a side salad to your lunch.
DINNER – Roasted Chicken or pressure pot chicken, Roasted broccoli, cabbage orange salad
TUESDAY
BREAKFAST – Shake with berries, fruit and milk.
LUNCH – Try a turkey roll and use some of the turkey breast covered with a bit of honey mustard, letuce leaf and roll up some avocado, cranberries and onions! Have a side of fruit with this.

Taco Stuffed Peppers by Tasty
I cannot take credit for this recipe at all, so click the link and watch the video, they tell you what you need. Later I may twist it up a bit so it is PALEO compliant. Easily you can use ground turkey or chicken instead of ground beef. If you are watching the carbs leave out the corn, sour cream and the cheese to make it a bit better for you if you are watching your carb intake.

Einkorn Pancake & Waffle Mix
If you want an ancient grain containing only 14 chromosomes, this is it!! This is a NON-GMO stone ground ancient grain that is easy on the digestion even for those who are gluten intolerant. I suggest you give it a try. The modern day grains are not normal, have been altered and is foreign to our digestion. Our digestion was made to easily digest the Einkorn 14 chromosomes. You can get yours by clicking here. The recipes for tasty pancakes, waffles and more are on the box.

Pressure Pot
I just purchased my 8 QT Pressure Pot and what a deal they are having on AMAZON right now.
WHOLE CHICKEN and BONE BROTH
Yes, just got my pressure pot 12/28/2015 and my first thing to do it cook an organic free range whole chicken. I have the chicken already amd I rubbed it with garlic powder, onion salt, lemon pepper and italian seasoning mix. Place on rack of pressure post and ad 1 1/2 cups of water, aTablespoon of lemon juice and 3 chicken bullion cubes into the pressure pot and cook for 6 minutes per pound. I took mine out after the pressure pot and did 10 minutes in my convection/browning oven for 10 minutes on 400 degrees to crisp and brown. DELICIOUS i might add and fed a family of 6 with plenty left over. I might add the bones were used to make bone broth in the pot right after we had dinner. YAY!!
I threw the bones and skin back into the pot, right into the juices from the cooked whole chicken, with the skin I peeled off and cooked for 90 minutes. Now I have 6 pints bone broth in my freezer.
Yes, this link is an affiliate, I do stand to gain a wee bit from it if you purchase, but, thanks in advance!
Week of Dec 28, 2016
Weekly tips!
Each week I want to share a few tips with you. I have so many and wish I could share them all now, but, patience little grasshoppers! This week I share some “tricks for the brain” and a bit about chicken thighs.
TIP #1 The chicken thigh…..well you either love them or hate them. I used to hate them, but, now I love them. They have been given a bad rap. But, did you know they are easy on the budget and deliver a huge taste, offers flavor and versatility to your dish and they are much juicier than the white meat. I prefer bone in chicken at all times just because the bones offer a full bodied flavor as well as much needed vitamins and nutrients. If your family does not like the bones, then take them out before serving, but, always cook with them! The bone in chicken is also a lot easier on your grocery budget.
TIP #2 This tip is a brain trick for those of you struggling with weight. Did you know your brain is programmed to your usual routine? Your brain knows approximately how many bites you take when you eat your dinner. It is also used to clearing a large plate. Try this over this weeks meals. With every other bite you take, just dip the tines of your fork into your plate, get a bit of sauce on the ends and lift to your mouth, go ahead and open wide, and place the fork in your mouth just as if you had a pile of food on it. Close your lips and remove the fork from your mouth just as you would if there was food on it! Continue this throughout your meal with every other bite. Your brain will count that just as if there was food in your mouth. I CHALLENGE YOU this week to try this, trust me it is difficult to remember to only have food every other bite, but, do it! Surprisingly you may find yourself full while still looking at a plate full of food.
This is another “brain trick”, use a smaller plate. Measure your plates, if you are using 9 or 10 inch dinner plates go down to an 8 inch luncheon plate or even a smaller 6 inch dessert plate and fill it up, make it pretty and eye appealing. Eating from a smaller plate, but, eating it all can also be a little tip to convincing your brain that you have had plenty to eat. Truth be known the 6 inch plate is plenty of food for most of us.
TIP #3 Serve up your dinner onto plates and put away all remaining food into containers and away into the fridge, out of sight. Eat one plate only, no seconds. If the food is put away and not setting on the table people will opt not to get it out and have more, they will be happy and content to eat what is given them and now you have something for lunch the next day!! We tend to cook too much food and if the food is set onto the table we tend to look at it and want more. Our eyes see more and our brain says eat more. Shut off that habit!
