Roasted cabbage

This is our new fav in our house!!  Everyone loves it.  That says a lot seeing there are 6 of us that range in age from 4-40 something. 😜

I've seen some recipes where they've named it cabbage steaks.  I like that name so I'm sticking with it!!  Cabbage steaks it is!!

I cut the cabbage 1 inch thick.  No more than 1 inch thick or it will not cook thoroughly. Drizzle some olive oil on top, add some minced garlic on top, sea salt 

and pepper.  

Bake on 350 for 40 minutes. Voila!  I make a couple heads on Sunday and put it in the fridge for easy grab and warm up sides thru out the week for dinner sides!

You're welcome. 😜

Spaghetti makeover

So I love my new toy the Spiral Slicer.  I bought it from Bed Bath and Beyond super cheap!

My first attempt to use it was for my easy, once a week, go to dish!!  My faux spaghetti.  Haha

1.  Thinly slice up 2 zuchinis 

2.  Throw them in the frying pan with a little coconut oil, on medium heat for about 5 minutes.

3.  Add your favorite spaghetti or meat sauce.  My favorite is ground turkey meat sauce.  

Voila!!  You have a quick dinner. 

The kiddos like it too but once in awhile I'll make them some gluten free noodles while we have our faux spaghetti. Just trying to show you how easy it is to make family dinners simple. Sometimes it takes the younger ones a little more time to cross over to eating clean 24/7 but you can still make clean choices for them. 

Turkey taco salad

Remember back in the day when spaghetti was your easy go to meal??  Well turkey taco salad is mine!!

Easy peasy:

Brown your ground turkey add taco seasoning (see recipe below) and place a top your favorites:

Chopped iceberg lettuce

Avocados

Onions

Tomatoes

And salsa

Very few calories and very filling.  And for those mommies out there, I let the kids enjoy all the toppings and trimmings but I make them a side of taco shells or low carb tortillas! Or make you a lettuce taco!

For the first time, I made my own taco seasoning:

3 tbls chili powder

3/4 tsp garlic powder

3/4 tsp red pepper flakes

3/4 tsp dried oregano

3/4 tsp onion powder

1 tsp paprika

1 tbls cumin

1 tbls Celtic SeaSalt

1 tbls black pepper

Mix ingredients together and store in air tight container.  2-3 tablespoons is the equivalent to a seasoning packet. 

Enjoy!!
