Page Under Construction; Still adding......

Kale Chips
Wash and throughly kale. I like to take the ribs out of mine.  Preheat oven to Broil. Toss with coconut oil. Lawry's seasoning salt, pepper, pinch of chile powder and garlic powder (optional).
Place under broiler on cookie sheet until crispy. Stir once or twice.

Puffs
Precook your meat and veggies and cut into small pieces.  Any type will do. I like to use chicken and brocolli. Pre heat oven to high broil. Slice cheese into small cubes. Grease cupcake pan with Ghee. Seperate the whites from the yokes of 4 eggs. Mix the yolks with a fork adding about 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Maybe more maybe less depending on taste.
Using a hand mixer beat egg whites on high until they peak. Once they are high and fluffy fold your yellows into the mixture using your fork. Fill each cup with eggs. Place pieces of chicken, brocolli, and a cube of cheese in middle of each cup pushing them down a little. Use a spoon to cover the filling with eggs and place in oven close to the heating element.
Once eggs are a brown, only a few minutes, take out and flip using a spatula. Place back in oven until done cooking.
These keep great and are a good use of leftovers!

Green chile stew
1.5 lbs Hamburger (not lean)
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2-1 onion chopped
1/4 tsp chile powder
Lawrys seanoning salt to taste
1 potatoe, peeled and cubed
1 can rotel (see recipe section for homemade rotel recipe)
8 oz chopped green chile
salt and pepper to taste

Brown hamburger with garlic, onion and lawry's seasoning salt. Boil potatoe until soft in just enough water to cover. Add remaining ingredients and let simmer until hot. Serve with half an avacado cubed. This of course is best the next day but you can eat it right away too.

If you are carb free make sure and cube the potatoe large enough to avoid.

Homemade Rotel
Roma Tomatoes
jalapenos
green chiles (optional)

Ratio- 1 jalapeno : 2-3 tomatoes

Boil RO water. Place tomatoes in boiling water until skins split. Remove and immeadealty put in ice water. Peel and cut out stem base. Dice jalapenoes and cube tomatoes. Stir in large bowl to mix well. Place in canning jar using all the juice from the bowl leaving 1/4 inch space on top. Top with water if necessary. Wipe the rims and place new canning lids to seal. Put jars in large pot and fill with water, tap water is fine, till there is at least 1 inch of water over the jars. Bring to a boil and let boil for 10 minutes. Gently remove from the pot using canning tongs, do not touch the lids. Once they have cooled, tighten the lids and store for future use. You now have canned homemade rotel!!


For you Mommas of kiddos still on bottles or just eating mash just like my lils: this is how I make their food.

Meat mix: I cook meat (beef, chicken, lamb, salmon) with onion, celery, fresh herbs, carrots, zucchini, squash, broccoli and any other veggie I can come up with. (I keep the starchy veggies to a minimum and usually only use carrots or cauliflower). Once everything is almost done cooking I put in a ton of green leafy veggies to soften. Spinach, collard greens, mustard greens, kale, and any other greens I have on hand. I mix all that up and put into a blender, the mix ends up being about 1/3 or less meat to 2/3 or more veggies. I make sure and use all the broth that was used to cook this cuz it is full of nutrients from the food.
Fruit mix: I then make their fruit mix. It changes depending on what is available. I use a lot of apples. Now that the boys are older I don't cook the apples I just blend them raw. I use a lot of berries, full of antioxidants, and other fruit available such as peaches, pears, etc. My favorite thing to mix with the fruit mix is pumpkin and squash. I cut them in half, place on a cookie sheet face down, cover bottom of cookie sheet with water and cook for an hour on about 400. Scoop meat out into a blender add apples and berries and blend. I like to make it with just apples and pumpkin adding stevia, nutmeg and cinnamon, super yummy.
Then at meal time the boys eat 2/3 meat mix to 1/3 fruit mix with a long squirt of flax oil. Once a day I blend a whole avocado and mix into their food. You can adjust the thickness by adding water depending on how you child is doing with solids.

For breakfast the lils eat a smoothie: strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, banana, vanilla coconut yogurt, spirulina, and flax oil. They love it! You can get organic frozen berries at Costco.
