Get your Fat Devil on...

Found a new delish recipe for an appetizer or a light dinner on MarksDailyApple (my favorite paleo/primal site). It is SO GOOD and more importantly EASY that I've had it twice in less than a week! So per the request of the eldest sister here is the recipe and some photos from my meal last night.

Ingredients:

2 hardboiled eggs

1/2 avocado

1 teaspoon hot sauce

1/2 teaspoon lime juice

salt and pepper to taste

Peel eggs and separate yolk from whites as you would to make deviled eggs (get it... fat devils...). Put yolks into bowl with 1/2 avocado and add hot sauce, lime juice and salt and pepper.

Mash together with fork until it begins to resemble guacamole. Scoop into empty egg whites and serve. Great with taco salad and some coconut milk!

Ps. I know mine don't look as good as the image up top, but A. I had to entice you with something that looked as good as they taste and B. they were much better than they look. Deeeeelish!!!

Happy Tuesday!

Okay, so I stole the mmmm mmm good from campbells (which is not in this recipe), BUT, it will give you that warm fully tummy feeling that heartily deserves the MMMMMMMMMmmmm.

Only 4 ingredients and I bet you already have 3 of them. I was hesistant to try, but with less ingredients than mac & cheese, it was worth a shot. And... survey says, DELISH! (ps. I got this recipe from Mommy Needs A Time Out- check out her blog sometime.)

Enjoy.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts

3 tablespoons good olive oil

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Cut off the brown ends of the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves then, cut in half long-ways.

Mix them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper.

Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 30 to 35 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to brown the sprouts evenly.

Finished Product (brussel sprouts and coconut milk- a nice light dinner... if i had chicken it would have been perfect)

Enjoy!

Delish Chicken Recipe- Love it for the Superbowl!

Found this recipe in the most recent Good Housekeeping magazine (thanks again marmy for the subscription!). If you know me, you know that I am NOT a cook. Not in any way. Cooking for me is making a bag of popcorn or microwaving soup. So hear my sincerity when I say, this recipe is EASY. Found all the ingredients at safeway in less than 10 minutes and cost me about about $15(other than the chicken, which I already had). So, without further delay the most DELISH chicken wing (without the wings) recipe to DEVOUR hot and fresh from the oven. (Oh and did I mention it's only 230 cal/serving) HAPPY COOKING!! - Em :)

INGREDIENTS:
1 pound(s) chicken-breast tenders, each cut crosswise in half, then lengthwise in half (I used chicken breast and just sliced it into tender like pieces)

1/4 teaspoon(s) ground red pepper (cayenne)

Salt and pepper

3 tablespoon(s) cayenne pepper sauce

1 tablespoon(s) water

1 tablespoon(s) margarine or butter, melted

1/3 cup(s) reduced-fat sour cream

1/4 cup(s) (1 ounce) crumbled blue cheese

2 tablespoon(s) light mayonnaise

2 tablespoon(s) fat-free (skim) milk

1/4 teaspoon(s) Worcestershire sauce

Carrot and celery sticks for serving (I added some red and yellow peppers too!)

DIRECTIONS:
Place oven rack 6 inches from source of heat; preheat broiler. (There is a broil setting on the oven...I checked :))
Spray 15 1/2" by 10 1/2" jelly-roll pan with nonstick cooking spray. Toss chicken with ground red pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place on prepared pan and broil 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, in microwave-safe small bowl, microwave cayenne pepper sauce, water, and margarine on High 10 seconds. Add to chicken in pan and stir to coat. Broil 2 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink in center.

While chicken is cooking, prepare blue cheese dip: In small bowl, combine sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise, milk, and Worcestershire sauce.
Serve chicken with carrot and celery sticks and blue cheese dip.
