Creamy + Dairy-Free We love making creamy sauces and dishes that are still dairy-free. This easy chicken marsala has a thick and creamy sauce, and you won’t even know that it’s made with coconut milk. We use full fat coconut milk and the arrowroot starch on the chicken thighs to get the thick and creamy texture, but then season it with garlic, balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs to mask the coconut flavor....
Such a tasty orange chicken recipe When cooking with natural ingredients, it really doesn’t take much to pack in the flavor.

Getting that sticky orange chicken Let’s be honest, the reason you order orange chicken at a restaurant is for that sweet, sticky sauce....

Ingredients in this nut free pesto Most pesto recipes call for pine nuts, which I’m not a big fan of. So, I made up my own version of pesto without them and here’s what you’ll need: Sunflower seeds – These have a more neutral flavor than pine nuts and provide the same texture and thickness to the pesto.Fresh garlic – Can you really make pesto without a bunch of garlic? Artichoke hearts – These add a slightly tangy and creamy flavor to the sauce....
Chorizo – What It Is And Where To Find It Chorizo is a Spanish pork sausage, and it gets its flavor from dried smoked red peppers. My step-dad loves it, and I can remember him making it when I was younger. It is a little fattier than regular pork sausage, and given its smoky flavor it is often used to add flavor to dishes. We’ve found clean, sugar-free pork chorizo in a couple of places:...
Why Do You Use Nutritional Yeast For This Grilled Cauliflower? Well, if you’ve never cooked with nutritional yeast…you’re missing out! Let’s start there. It has a cheesy, umami flavor that is quite pleasing to the tastebuds. People hear the word yeast and get scared though. Don’t be scared. Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast. That means it doesn’t contribute to yeast overgrowth or issues. It’s also rich in folate and B vitamins and even has protein in it....
What Are Plantains? Plantains look like oversized bananas, and they can range from green to yellow and brown, depending on the ripeness. Green plantains are more starchy when cooked, like a potato. The green ones are great for making plantain fries as an example. The yellow and brown ones are more ripe and are sweeter. They are softer and what we used for these ground beef and plantain bowls. We love plantains because they are not only delicious but also a great resistant starch, which is good for digestion....

What a waste of your Whole30....

Paleo Chia Seed Pudding You can always make chia seed pudding with just chia seeds and coconut milk or the nut milk of your choice, but I have been loving adding hemp seeds into the mix for a little extra texture. It gives the chia pudding more of an oatmeal like texture, which I really love! It also adds a little extra protein as well.

You can even save a little extra time by buying pre-riced cauliflower. It can usually be found in the fresh produce or frozen aisle of the grocery store. We get ours at Trader Joe’s in the fresh produce section....
Creamy + Dairy-Free Sometimes it seems challenging to achieve true creaminess without the dairy, but we love using full fat coconut milk and garlic together to make creamy sauces. The garlic masks the coconut taste, and it ends up being super rich and silky. In this recipe we added onion and used Italian seasoning on the chicken with fresh thyme added to the sauce, too. It ended up being a really delicious combination!...
