Sweet Potato Bell Pepper “Nachos” Whole30 & Paleo

Oh baby this dish was as fun to make as it was to eat!

I was worried this would turn out to be complicated but it was SO easy and SO perfect if you have different appetites in your house because everyone can build their own! Depending on how many are chowing down these will also leave you with some wonderful left overs! The timing of the foods line up really well and takes about 30 min start to finish (if you're really good at multitasking in the kitchen).
“Nachos”:
  • 1lb ground turkey 
  • 3 bell peppers (quartered) 
  • 1 sweet potato (sliced thinly) 
  • 1/2 onion (diced) 
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste 
  • Garlic powder 
  • Chili powder 
  • Salt, pepper 
  • Chosen Foods Avocado oil Spray




Toppings:
  • Salsa 
  • Cilantro 
  • Red onion 
  • Green onions 
  • Sliced black olives 
  • Guac (buy your own or make it!)
  • Anything else your heart desires!

Steps:
  1. Pre heat oven to 400F 
  2. Add onion to pan large enough to brown ground turkey, and sauté until starting to caramelize. 
  3. Add turkey, season with salt, pepper, chili powder & garlic. 
  4. Add tomato paste to browned meat, distribute and taste- season to taste. 
  5. Add sweet potatoes to one baking sheet, spray with avocado oil & season with salt and pepper. 
  6. Sweet potatoes cook for 20min, flipping half way through. 
  7. Add bell peppers to baking another baking sheet, spray, season with salt & pepper. Add to oven halfway through sweet potato cooking. Remove after 10min. 
  8. After vegetables have cooled plate up, top with ground turkey and go to town with your toppings & enjoy

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!
