Chicken with Quick Mole SauceBy Jill PlaceMole, a signature sauce in Mexican cooking, is made lower-calorie and even food-sensitive with this knockout recipe from Eating Well magazine.
I just LOVE cooking with herbs (the leaves of the plant) and spices (the roots, bark, and seeds, or essentially any part of the plant that isn't a leaf) as many of them have been used for healing for eons. And wellness gurus now tout their benefits for healing leaky gut.Paleo Chocolate Cupcakes with PecansBy Jill PlaceYou can make these crunchy (due to the surprise of the cacao nibs), moist Paleo gems with the pecans on top as written. Or frost them with your favorite Paleo frosting. Either way, you'll have a hard time keeping them in the house!Paleo Chocolate No-Bake “Cheesecake”By Jill PlaceThis recipe is almost verbatim from Kelsey Ale's cookbook, Paleo Sweets, and is dairy- and gluten-free. I took it to my Qigong teacher's farewell practice (Boo Hoo ... she's moving to Portland) in the park near the Rose Bowl (yes, I live near there!). It was devoured! Can you guess what the filling is (besides the tons of chocolate)? Bet you can't ...Dairy Free Cream of Chicken Soup MixBy Jill PlaceMissing cream soup? This gut-healing soup mix is gluten- and dairy-free and leaning on Paleo. Just add water and your own ingredients and eat it up FOR REAL! Makes great gravy too!Southwestern Pork and Bean SoupBy Jill PlaceI couldn't believe how easy and fast this Southwestern Pork and Bean Soup came together. And it was delicious too! This recipe, adapted from one from the National Pork Board, is a veritable nutritional powerhouse.Arugula PestoBy Jill PlacePesto is an ancient Italian pasta condiment that gets an update with arugula.
