Hey hey .... you know it's September and guess what that means? I  was   doing a September Whole30! Yup. It's true! And that meant I had to be a little more mindful of what I'm eating, how I'm eating and WHY I'm eating ;-) Not a big deal, said no one ever! A slight understatement, just for the record! Anyway. This idea came from Made It Love It Paleo ... and of course, because the concept was so simple, I hopped right to the kitchen and made one just for kicks. Yes, it was Day Two and a Tuesday morning. Cloudy, but still, already 85 degrees outside.  At 7:30am. BUT I had leftover stuff from the holiday weekend.  And because I was kind of on a No Spend Week, I was trying to use what I had on hand, yeah, even in the beginning stages of a Whole30 ...  and what the hell, leftover chicken was in the house and only 18 eggs left ... so let's do it! Uhm, hello? It's a keeper due to the simplicity of the whole thing!  Again, it's just th...

*It's another repost from the past but it's what I made this week!  Instead of the radishes though, I just served this over a bed of shredded lettuce and it was spot on with the saucy/dressing! And yes, it's Whole30 Approved! This recipe comes from a book I got a while ago,  Primal Blueprint Quick & Easy Meals . which prompted me to get back in to the actual cookbook mode ... even though I have tons of them, I need more that are on track with this new way of eating! By the way, in case you didn't know, 450  Swagbucks  will  give you $5 in Amazon cash ... and that's how I've been buying the cookbooks ... Another side note ... I do NOT like to have them on my Kindle. I mean, yeah, it's sort of cool to just open up the Kindle BUT I don't like the layout/format whatever. It's not the same as looking at the 2 pages, side by side ... so I've decided no more cookbooks on the Kindle. Anyways ...  It's  Whole30  Compliant! Sweet! P...

Cilantro Lime Rice

*I'm joining in on the #SeptemberWhole30 Challenge which officially started on Monday, September 5th (thankfully AFTER the holiday weekend was almost over!!* Did you see my excitement a few weeks ago when I finally found the bags of riced cauliflower at Trader Joe's? I made a bag of that stuff that very night without any thought ... that's how excited I really was ;-) It was really easy too since the cauliflower was already riced ... all I had to do was zest a lime, chop some cilantro, juice the lime and cook the "rice". I have turned so many people on to this stuff in the past few weeks that I may never find it again at the Trader Joe's by my house! *Type 1 Diabetics should be stockpiling this stuff with only 3 grams of carbs per serving! This isn't really a recipe, so to speak, but more of a process. And I'm looking forward to making it again! Here's what you need: 1 12 oz bag of riced cauliflower (or you can certainly rice yo...
