Recreating a favourite


After my recent success with Oopsie Rolls, I decided I would try making wraps with them so that we could have fajitas! They turned out pretty damn well, and although the texture was a bit odd as a replacement for tortilla wraps, they did the job! I also had to make a basic guacamole to go with it, so I was very pleased with my cooking efforts! Tonight, we're having a simple steak and sweet potato chips meal!!...

Trial and error...

Whenever we've changed our diet, we've had to learn how to make new things, and inevitably learn new cooking skills! This has been very true for me this past couple of weeks!  I've been getting a little bored with our normal menus, so have been trying out new things! Some things have worked, others have been huge failures, but below are some of the things that I will definitely be making regularly!




Chicken fillets coated in egg, herbs and ground nuts. Served with mashed butternut squash, absolutely delicious!! This idea came from Mark's Daily Apple, and will be used as often as possible!


Now this paleo chocolate and nut cake is truly divine! Not something for every day, but to be able to have a slice of chocolate cake without feeling guilty, is incredibly good! Thanks to Modern Paleo Warfare for this recipe!


Oopsie Rolls! What a great find these are! Still egg like in texture, but firm enough to hold a filling, and rather cheesy too from the cream cheese ingredient! I have Ang to thank for telling me to Google these!!



And finally, paleo chocolate fudge! Although unlike fudge in any sense, these are little bites of heaven!! Recipe was found via Pinterest on Eat Nourishing's website!

And so, off I go to write a new menu for the week! I finally have enough ideas to keep things interesting!! Hopefully you'll want to try some of these too!
