Paleo Plan Banana with Coconut Milk

This really hits the spot when I have a sugar craving, almost tastes like ice cream.

  • A banana, chopped
  • 1-2 Tablespoons almond butter
  • 1/4 cup light coconut milk (Trader Joes)
Pour almond butter over bananas and pour coconut milk over all of it.

ENJOY!

Chocolate Covered Frozen Banana Bites

For a Relief Society Bucket List party, I was supposed to bring a recipe I had never tried before. I was working the whole day, and there was nothing in the cupboards, and I didn't want to go grocery shopping. This recipe hit the spot, and was a HIT!


1 banana
1/3 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup chocolate chips
shredded coconut

Melt peanut butter and chocolate chips together in microwave. Chop up banana, dip in chocolate, sprinkle with coconut. Place on wax paper, freeze for one hour.

YUMMY!

Leticia's Yummy Chicken Soup

A friend from church needed some help with some tech stuff, which I volunteered Jeremy for. She served us a very yummy dinner, everything was so good. Here is a recipe I asked her for because it actually tasted so healthy--and it is!


*1 whole organic free range chicken (so the taste is very mild)
*four celery stalks (organic -- don't ever buy celery that is not organic) - chopped
*two organic carrots - diced
*one cup of basmati rice
*two large organic potatoes - diced

Remove with kitchen scissors most of the fat from the chicken and hanging skin. Place it in a pot with hot water and bring it to a boil. Boil for one hour, adding water as it evaporates. Remove the chicken from the pot and remove all the meat from the bones and discard all of the skin. Place chicken pieces back in the pot along with potato and carrots. Boil until the carrots and potatoes are tender. Now add the chopped celery and the rice. Boil at medium heat until rice is cooked.

When you save the left overs, the next day you will have to add chicken broth when you reheat the soup. If you add water, the chicken flavor will be too weak.
