So the other day I gave you pictures and descriptions of what I’m eating. How about I share a few that I love?
Paleo Granola
So one thing I was missing (not craving or causing unhealthy food associations) is something crunchy. I found this recipe for granola using nuts, seeds, coconut, and cacao nibs. Exactly what I wanted.
Anna’s notes: I used almonds, raw cashews, raw sunflower seeds, raw pumpkin seeds. I roasted longer than the recipe said to get a better toasting on everything. Probably cooked it a total of 1 hour, stirring every 10 minutes.
Beef Chili
This was inspired by a Whole 30 recipe in the book. Didn’t follow it exactly.
1 can fire roasted tomatoes
1 lb ground beef
1 package beef stew meat
1 cup beef broth
3 TBl of my chili mix.
I used my instant pot but you could do this on the stove or slow cooker. I browned all the meat with salt, pepper and garlic. Dumped in my liquids and my chili mix. Cooked on manual at high pressure for 35 minutes and did a natural release for 20 min. Opened my pot and stirred. Turned out great. Now you may also ask what is in my chili mix. I have that recipe too.
Anna’s Chili Mix
Dump all the spices into a container and shake.
Last one for today – Dump Ranch Dressing

This turned out great. I used dill as my herb and it was perfect for me.
