Whole30 & Paleo Eggs in a Nest




This easy nest recipe is fun for breakfast, brunch or anytime of the day. My favorite part of this recipe is how you can customize it to meet your caloric needs for the day! If you track macros you can adjust the sausage, avocado and spirals as needed. If you need a lower carb option, opt for the butternut squash spirals rather than the sweet potato ect.
You can change the flavor profile to suite your taste as well! Try adding a side of smoked salmon to replace the sausage, or sauerkraut or kimchee in place of the marinated onions!
Instructions
  1. Make your No Crumbs Left Marinated Red Onions ahead of time.
  2. Dice sausage & cook in pan over medium heat. Set aside.
  3. In the same pan spray pan with olive oil and warm over medium heat (enough to coat the bottom but not enough to splatter when you add the spirals)
  4. Arrange two piles of spiralized veggie ‘nests’ in your pan (be sure to make holes in the middle for your eggs!)
  5. Let the veggie nests crisp up for about 2 min then flip
  6. After ~1 min on the other side add the eggs to your nest and cover pan w/ lid. (runny yolks take ~4 min)
  7. While eggs are cooking, layer arugula on plate
  8. Next carefully remove eggs in a nest from pan with a large flat spatula or fish spatula and set to one side of your arugula base.
  9. Artfully arrange the remaining ingredients - sausage, avocado, and No Crumbs Left Marinated Red Onions
  10. Sprinkle everything but the bagel salt & enjoy!

Fried Chicken + waffles = classic (but not healthy)

Chicken tenders made with paleo pancake/waffle mx + garlic rosemary cauliflower mash = super delicious  & pretty darn healthy!

Hearty Palmini Chicken "Noodle" Soup Whole30 & Paleo

Image
We are back with what may be the last soup of the season considering it seems to be warming up (at least here in sunny southern California!)

This hearty soup will leave you with a full belly and provide your body with a TON of nutrients! Considering even the noodles are made from a whole vegetable source this soup tops the charts in my book for wins! The star of the show of course is the can of palmini that give this soup its name! There is zucchini co starting in a quartered and sliced role rather than a noodle role that suites it quite well. The carrot chips give this soup a delicious bit while still being tender and delicious. I diced up rotisserie chicken, but feel free to prep yours however you like (if you like bigger chunks try shredding!). 
 Ingredients:
Chosen foods avocado oil spray1 small onion diced 1 cup celery, sliced thin (about 2 stalks) 1/2 package carrot chips (or 2 carrots sliced) 1 can Palmini 4 cloves minced garlic cloves 64 ounces (2 cartons) low-sodium chicken br…

Palmini with a Roasted Garlic & Mushroom Turkey Bolognese Whole30 & Paleo

Image
Something about spaghetti night brings me back to childhood. I feel like spaghetti night was always a fun night, and now I get it... it's a quick dish to whip up and yields a good amount of left overs. No wonder the grown ups liked it so much ahaha (am I a grown up?).

The base of this bolognese is very similar to my Fast Zoodles & Turkey Meat Sauce recipe. With just a few tweaks you can change this recipe to have different flavors, textures or macros to fit your preferences!

This sauce is great over Palmini, any spiralzied veggie, or even broccoli slaw!
