chipotle beef tacos

my favorite!!! beef tacos!!! yay!!! :D

SonRise Ranch grass-fed beef marinated in lime and chipotle grilled rare and sliced up to be wrapped up in cabbage or chard leaf with lots of "fixins" to add on the taco! chipotle flavor is awesome! i love me some spice! :)

yum ... rare grass-fed beef!

fixins

chard and purple cabbage

avocado

king salmon steak & italian style veggies

king salmon steak baked in toaster oven for 10 minutes with "italian style" veggies: broccoli, green bell pepper, and tomato sauteed with olive oil, italian herbs and crushed red pepper and then covered to simmer for a few minutes. when i cook veggies, i like to be very gentle with the heat and keep the veggies lightly cook so they still have some crispness :)

chicken & veggie chana masala

i love indian food and one of the dishes i really love is chana masala. eating a paleo diet, i dont eat chickpeas, so i took the chana masala flavoring and applied it to something else!

of course, its an interpretation based on my research of what goes into chana masala. i think i got close to the taste ;)

chicken chopped up
broccoli
tomatoes
onion
garlic
coriander
cumin
cayenne
tumeric
paprika
ginger
salt
lemon
green chili
butter

stir fry in pan and cover to simmer for 5 minutes

yumminess! :)
