Recipe: Paleo Fish Tacos

I made some bright and summery mango salsa with pineapple and avocado the other day, and it was delicious with a few grilled tuna steaks for dinner. I had leftovers the next day, so I made Paleo fish tacos for lunch! Sometimes eating leftovers can be a drag, but if you switch it up a little, you might not even notice.

Ingredients:

  • Grilled fish--if you don't have or want tuna, you could do red snapper or tilapia
  • Several leaves of Bibb lettuce
  • A few tablespoons (or more!) of mango salsa (get my recipe for that here)
  • One or two lime wedges

Instructions:

  1. Cook fish on grill (if you're using leftovers like I did, just microwave it to reheat)
  2. Assemble taco using lettuce as the taco shell. Add fish and top with salsa. (I like to separate the fish into smaller pieces with a fork or a knife instead of eating the whole thing in one piece.)
  3. Give the whole thing a squeeze of lime, fold over, and enjoy!

Recipe: Grilled Peaches with Goat Cheese & Honey

I love peaches in the summer, and I love grilling, so to me, a grilled peach is pretty much the epitome of the season. For this little recipe, I used a grill pan instead of the outdoor grill, which tends to be easier if you're just making a quick batch. Topped with goat cheese and a drizzle of honey, these make a perfect appetizer or even a unique dessert. 

Ingredients:

  • Two to three large, ripe peaches
  • PAM cooking spray (I used the olive oil one)
  • Several tablespoons of soft goat cheese
  • A couple tablespoons of honey
  • Mint, as a garnish

Instructions:

  1. Heat grill pan on stove, turned to medium-high heat.
  2. Wash the peaches and cut each one in half. Remove pits.
  3. Spray pan with PAM and place peaches cut side down on grill pan. Cook for about five minutes, then flip them over and cook for another two or three.
  4. Plate the peaches and crumble goat cheese over each one. Drizzle with honey, garnish with fresh mint, and serve warm.

Leaving up to 99% less residue, PAM is your ally in the kitchen and allows you to save time during prep and clean up.

Recipe: Paleo Buffalo Chicken Burgers

I have to be honest and tell you that ground chicken is not something that I would normally buy. If I'm going to make burgers, you can bet that they're going to be made of beef; but the other day ground chicken was ridiculously cheap at the grocery store, so I bought two pounds and stuck it in the freezer. I said, "I'm going to make Buffalo chicken burgers out of this!" and that's exactly what I did last night.

Ingredients:

  • One pound of ground chicken
  • 1/4 cups Frank's Hot Sauce
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1-2 tablespoons of butter
  • Lettuce for wrapping the burger (Iceburg or Bibb works really well)
  • Toppings: mayo, tomato, onion, chopped celery

Instructions:

  1. Mix ground chicken together with hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Separate meat into four sections and make a patty out of each one with your hands.
  2. In a medium to large pan, heat the butter over medium heat. Place burgers in pan.
  3. Cook about eight minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked throughout.
  4. Serve with lettuce, tomato, onion,  chopped celery, and a dollop of mayo if you're into it. Also, a sprinkle of celery seeds makes a nice touch.
