Tabbouleh With Millet and Hemp Hearts

One of my favorite salads, tabbouleh, is back to my table after experimenting with plant paradox compliant ingredients that taste the and have the same texture as bulgur. That is millet and hemp hearts. Millet by itself was a bit too soft to work, but mixed with some crunchy hemp herts / seeds does a great job to add texture to this lectin free tabbouleh salad.

Italian Fusion Seafood Nachos

I love the idea of sharing platter and eating with hands, and for this reason I loved nachos. For me it doesn’t really matter the ingredients as long as it’s tasty and healthy food, but I wanted to re-create the experience of eating nachos. I’ve made this dish before with chicken, and I’m still due to upload it on here, hopefully soon. Until then, the seafood option is as delicious, if not better.

Mustard Sage Crispy Chicken Wings Platter

I think is safe to say crispy chicken wings are my speciality, and I guess this happened because I never liked the ones in restaurants, that are usually too moist and ‘saucy’ for my taste. So I worked on perfecting my technique and I’m really happy with how they turn out every time.

Balsamic Brussel Sprouts and Millet Warm Salad

This salad may not look like much, but it’s a super easy and nutritious fix for when you don’t have much time, plus it’s good warm and cold, can make a main dish or a side to your protein of choice. And you just need few ingredients. Can I add is also quite a cheap meal? And vegan?

Cauliflower Rice and Seaweed Vegetable Poke Bowl

This lectin free bowl looks only plant based, but it has mini shrimps in it, which you can easily skip to make the dish vegetarian. The dressing has mayonnaise, which again can be skipped for a complete vegan version. So there is a little bit for everyone, and there is enough variety of vegetables to make it delicious and nutritious whatever the version.

Dr. Gundry’s Lemon Poppy Coffee Cake

This is seriously the best Plant Paradox cake I’ve made. This recipe from The Plant Paradox Cookbook by Dr. Steven Gundry caught my attention by… just being a cake with a beautiful texture. And I love cakes. I’ve been trying to perfect a grain free, sugar free, lectin free coffee cake for the past ten months and I’ve made some good ones, but this is the best so far.

Sunchokes Breakfast Skillet

Sunchokes or Jerusalem artichokes are one of those vegetables relatively new to my diet, which I only discovered after starting the Plant Paradox protocol. Sunchokes naturally contain inulin, therefore is part of the prebiotic plants group. This tuber is infamous for its gassy effects, but I think is rather unfair considering its health benefits, and a problem I have not experienced when I ate them.

Beef Liver Pate with Bourbon and Fresh Herbs

I do not have a problem with eating liver, quite the opposite. I grew up eating pate and liver in different forms and it was actually one of my favorite foods for a long time. It still is but since I had a hard time finding 100% grass fed beef liver or pasture raised chicken liver I preferred not to consume it at all. So when I finally found beef liver that is 100% grass fed and local, I went for it.

Seven Layers Salmon Egg Benedict

While I find it easy now to bake a grain free, lectin free bread, I don’t always feel like it, and lettuce is a great replacement for bread in many dishes. This was what I had for brunch today, my only meal until dinner (which is cooking in the oven and smells amazing).

Easy Almond Ricotta and Kale Salad

Ok, this might be the easiest salad I’ve ever made. If you have the croutons ready, it literally takes five minutes to make, counting washing and drying the kale. An easy healthy fix for any day.
