Menu Monday Vol. III

It's been a few weeks since I last linked up with Rachel at In No Simple Language for Menu Monday, so here's what's been on my Paleo menu lately!


Paleo Menu Monday Vol. III!

I mentioned the Paleo brownies I made for my birthday a few weeks ago, but never shared the link!



Seriously, so good & only 5 ingredients!  Well, plus the Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips I added!!

Roasted Veggies

There's no real recipe for this, but it's so easy! Just peel and cut up a sweet potato into chunks (a bit bigger than the picture)  and slice a zucchini and squash about an inch think.  Toss in some EVOO, chipotle chili powder, garlic powder and sea salt.  Roast on 450 for about 20 minutes!  So yummy and a good way to get in your veggies :)

I am a pizza LOVER!!  Ever since starting Paleo, it's definitely been something I've missed and dreamed of!  Cheese is a pretty important ingredient for pizzas and well...cheese is not Paleo.  So I just figured there was no way I could ever make a Paleo pizza since it would be missing such an important part!  But this pizza was the perfect solution!  It doesn't require cheese and I really liked the almond flour crust!  B liked it too, we've made it twice now!

I also used the same crust recipe and was able to tweak one of my most favorite pizzas - Thai Chicken Pizza - to make it mostly Paleo!  I subbed stevia for sugar and almond flour for the cornstarch in the sauce, also left off the cheese & subbed almonds for peanuts.  

These 2 pizzas made my pizza loving inner fat girl so happy!!

A blogger I follow, Jennifer Francis, posted this recipe a few weeks ago and when I got my new food processor I knew this would be one of the first things I made with it!!  I served it once with Garlic Lime Chicken and then again last night with Salsa Chicken from the crock pot.  Not exactly the best smelling dish to make, but the end result is super tasty!!

I also made Stuffed Spaghetti Squash again as our pre Spartan Race dinner!

That's most of what I've been cooking lately!  What are you going to try!?

  1. While I still know I could never go paleo, I'm sort of intrigued by the no cheese pizza! I want to try it!
    Hope you're having a good last week before spring break. Can't wait to see you next week!
