Turkey Tagine Stuffing with Moroccan Spices

I’m in the mood for a new stuffing this holiday. Something with rich exotic spices! And crunchy textures. This Paleo stuffing is based on a Moroccan stew, slow-cooked in a Tagine clay-pot. That’s similar to baking inside a bird, right? This turkey stuffing is nothing like my mom's. It is gluten-free and grain-free, made with pure unrefined ingredients from Nature - onions, celery, squash, mushrooms, and toasted almonds, plus an enticing blend of Moroccan spices. The spice paste has a ...

Nobody will Guess it’s Cauliflower Fried Rice

I love cauliflower rice when it is barely cooked, because then it has the EXACT texture of real rice. My friends and family all believed it was rice, until I told them! Ha Ha! The only way to find healthy cauliflower fried rice is to make it yourself! As you know, it's almost impossible to find a restaurant meal of healthy, low-carb veggies, and non-GMO!  You won't find this fried rice in Beijing, Chinatown, or Jakarta. Cauliflower rice is easy to prepare in 10 minutes or less. Even better, it ...

Paleo Cauliflower Hash with Eggs

Here's a quick and easy comfort breakfast you can make in 15 minutes or less. Cauliflower hash is WAY tastier than potato hash. And since cauliflower is a low-carb vegetable, it's far healthier and easier on your waistline. How do you like your eggs? I like them soft boiled like in the photo. Prepare your eggs any way you like them. Or you can fry them over-easy, sunny-side up, scramble, or poach. This recipe is extremely flexible. Serves 4, with 2 eggs each. [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:207]

Low-Carb Cauliflower Risotto alla Milanese with Saffron

When I lived in Venice, Italy, I enjoyed risotto almost every day. Ha Ha! But sadly, it's loaded with carbs, and I gained a lot of weight.

I've resolved the carb problem with this Paleo-Vegan adapted recipe, so you won't gain weight like I did. It's super-low in carbs and even quicker to make. With Cauliflower Rice, you don't have to stand over a hot stove stirring ...

Spanish “Tortilla de Patata” Frittata with Cauliflower

Easy "Tortilla de Patata" is a favorite meal-in-minutes from Barcelona to Madrid to Seville. This recipe is a cauliflower take-off on that national dish of Spain. Cauliflower is an ideal substitute for potatoes, because it's delicious, a highly nutritious cruciferous veggie, low in carbs, and so quick to cook. It can be ready in a snap fo breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Potatoes and peppers are not on my diet, as they're in the nightshade family, which causes intestinal problems for some people - ...

Mediterranean Cauliflower Rice Pilaf

You won't find THIS rice pilaf in Athens or Mykonos! That's because it is made with cauliflower. A healthy alternative to potatoes or rice, no one will guess it is low-carb, grain-free, and Paleo. In fact one of my guests asked if I used Basmati rice! Easy to make in 15 minutes or less, cauliflower is an anti-inflammatory, cancer-fighting ...

Cauliflower Risotto with English Peas

Today I discovered fresh organic English peas in the market! When I lived in Italy, fresh peas in the pod were a sign of spring. Everyone rushes home to make this risotto, called “Risi e Bisi” in Venetian dialect, or “Rice with Peas”. However you won’t find this particular risotto in Italy! ...
