MOboysgirl Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 We've been doing whole 30 since August. Still sticking with this way of eating most of the time. My bigger problem is finding recipes we like. We're really not picky eaters and I'm a fairly good cook so I'm a little frustrated. I've probably only kept 5-6 recipes to make again. (Not including grilled meats and veggies, egg salads, roasted veetables and pot roast.) I thought it might be fun to post what we had for supper last night (or any other night) and if you liked it. We had chicken skillet with sweet potatoes and apples from wellplated.com. We really liked it and it's very easy to make with enough for leftovers for lunch today. Now I'd love to hear from you!!!

MOboysgirl Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 That's a great idea! What seasonings did you use? Have you tried cauliflower rice? I bet it would be good over that too. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babsie95 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I used an chopped onion, half a bag of shredded carrot, lots of garlic, fine chopped beef, ginger, coconut aminos and after all that cooked I added a bag of angle hair cabbage and topped with chopped cashews. the cabbage almost made it like a noodle stirfry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job. I used to make stir fry before whole30. Not sure why I forgot about it. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babsie95 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I haven't in a long time...I guess because I usually eat it with rice and couldn't quite get over that. But using the cabbage really gave it good bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsp64 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I pan cooked the following: Avocado oil, olive oil, 1 chicken breast, mushrooms, 1 chopped onion, kale and spinach, salt, pepper, paprika Separately, I coated diced butternut squash in a hot pan with the fats (olive oil, avocado oil) and then sprinkled them with salt, a generous dash of cinnamon and smoked paprika and then roasted it in the oven for 20 minutes. It was delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My confidence in all these new ingredients isn't quite there yet. Closer every day- especially with your post. Thanks so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellmaestra Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I shared this in another thread, but this Indian Beef and Potato Curry is delish: <http://myheartbeets.com/indian-ground-beef-coconut-curry/>. I make a lot of stir-fries; when in a hurry I fry up some ground turkey, throw in some bagged broccoli slaw, some almonds, coconut aminos, a little sesame oil, and thicken it with some sunflower butter. It's good by itself or served over cauliflower rice. Stephanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen_Suep Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Oven fajitas for framily dinner. I piled the plate high with the onions and pepper and chicken while I made sure everyone else had cheese, beans, rice, etc. I'm not following w30 as strictly right now but this was definitely 100%compliant on my part at least.

That's a good one. I've made paleo tortillas and these would be good in them. Even better than the taco meat i was using! Thanks keep the ideas coming I love it.

Go with the fajita ingredients over salad or wrapped in lettuce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellmaestra Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I hadn't thought of throwing angel hair cabbage in a stir-fry... that sounds great too! S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted October 26, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 26, 2016 One of our favourite dinners is to sautee 2# ground pork, drain and then drench in Sunshine Sauce. In another large pan/wok, steam-fry shredded purple cabbage and whole green beans until tender. Add coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, S&P, fish sauce etc to the veggies as they steam. Plate the veggies and then top with the saucy, creamy pork. Seems plain/dull but is a fave in our house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great reminder for those new to the "program." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive made a corn beef brisket in the past with cabbage. Didn't check the spices at that time. Would love to have that meal again. Yum- thanks for the reminder.

kruddock Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Nothing too elaborate on a weekday evening. We had grilled chicken breast (seared in pan on stove then baked in oven - stays moist inside) just seasoned with salt and spices, roasted butternut squash seasoned with olive oil, salt, garlic & onion powder & dill, steamed green beans with ghee, mayo/mustard dip. Made enough for leftovers today. While food was cooking in the oven, I had time to make mayo, boil some eggs, rice up cauliflower and cook turkey sausage.

I need to remember to keep it simple sometimes. I also find myself prepping for the next meal, while one meal is cooking. Constantly cooking.

Chillenb Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I made a pumpkin curry soup with coconut milk, ground beef, and most of a head of cauliflower. It's rainy today as well, so a perfect day for leftovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
