January Whole30!

Happy New Year!!

It’s time fort he January Whole30. Since you are new to this, here are some resources that you should keep in mind before starting on January 5.

Here are the best resources for the Whole30…

It Starts With Food—the book that started it all. It is a great resource for all things Whole30—also the Whole30 website: www.whole30.com

Recipe Blogs:

Nom Nom Paleo—I have this book coming and can’t wait—there is also an iPad app that has amazing recipes (some of which you can find on the blog), including:

§       Easy Tandoori Chicken (I use coconut cream and lime juice)

§       Roasted Kabocha Squash

§       Slow Cooker Kalua Pork

§       Fiona’s Phenomenal Green Chicken

§       Cherry Chicken

§       Mexican Braised Beef

§       Prosciutto Wrapped Frittata Muffins (I don’t use coconut oil in this and use a little water instead of coconut milk)

§       Slow Cooker Thai Beef Stew

§       Slow Cooker Beef & Tomato Stew

The Clothes Make the Girl—I have both of the Well Fed Cookbooks—which are ridiculously good. Some of my favorites include:

§       Olive Oil Mayonnaise (I make mine in a mini food processor)

§       Moroccan Dipping Sauce

§       Best Chicken Ever

§       Chocolate Chili

§       Meatza

§       Bora Bora Fireballs (I cook the coconut with the balls instead of rolling them in the coconut later)

§       Creamy Spice Market Kale

§       Cumin Roasted Carrots

§       Velvety Butternut Squash (amazing with a lot less garlic—I only use two cloves—and eat it with Nom Nom Paleo’s tandoori chicken)

§       Thai Basil Beef (I use flank steak cut into thin slices instead of ground beef)

§       Deconstructed Gyro

§       Plantain Nachos

§       West African Chicken Stew

Here’s a great blog post with the top 30 reasons to do a Whole30

Also, a list of Whole30 Week 1 Meal Plan, and a month of Whole30 meals.

And one final recipe—my favorite breakfast bake (I usually take leftovers for lunch).

Enjoy!!
