Avocado Breakfast Boats

 
So this morning I had to fast as I had to have some blood work done.  Of course this was the morning that I had to wake up super starving, So hungry I swear my stomach started eating itself.  Logically I had no reason to be this savagely hungry since I didn't have to stop eating until 2am the night before and probably wouldn't have eaten this early in the morning on any other day...but I assume that since my brain knew I had to fast, she went into panic mode.  By the time I got to the hospital, my innards were screaming and the entire waiting room was well aware of my situation.  I finish giving blood and now I'm both dizzy and nauseous.  How am I going to make it home? Why am I so dizzy? Ooooh yeah, I completely forgot I worked out Saturday and Sunday back to back and I'm still not used to working out after our Covid break.  ugh, I need to get home and get some protein in my system.  I get home and dig through the fridge.  What's quick? Whats got fat and protein?  Perfect! I've got a ripe avocado that I should probably use before she turns brown but what shall I eat her with?  Aha, let me try this Beyond Beef plant based sausage.  I found it on sale and have yet to try it.  Lets see if it is as good as the "beef"  But how do i combine the two of them into a meal.  Now when I was Paleo, I always saw recipes for eggs baked in an avocado.  It always looked spectacular but I never actually tried it.  So here is my opportunity! Sans egg of course!  This hardly needs a recipe but here goes anyways:

INGREDIENTS:
1 Avocado
2 Plant Based Breakfast Sausage Patties
1/2 medium Roma tomato, diced
handful of onion sprouts
Salt & pepper to taste
Avocado oil to drizzle

METHOD:
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
  • Cut avocado in half and remove the pit thing....is it called a pit?
  • Lie both halves face up on a sheet of aluminum foil and drizzle tops with avocado oil (I do this for no clean up purposes.  just pitch the foil when done)
  • Place both of the sausage patties on the foil as well and bake for around 10 - 15 minutes.  You can flip the sausages halfway through but I didn't bother.  Both sides were crispy for me.
  • Drizzle a few drops of oil and add salt and pepper to sprouts and tomatoes and mix them up.  I like to season my veggies so they aren't so dry and naked..
  • Chop or crumble the sausage right into the avocado.
  • Top with the tomato sprout salad
  • ENJOY. Mmmm

Farm Fresh Romanesco Salad

  Day 38 Plant Based Paleo Journey So today Lila and I ventured to the Farmers Market.  My friend had told me about this place the week prior but we hadn't the chance to go visit yet.  Lila was particularly excited to go, not for the goodness we would find there but rather that she could drive there.  (She currently has her driving permit and needs to fulfill her hours).  Anyways, we safely arrived at the market and were immediately greeted by tons of local squash, gourds, pumpkins. On my way to the patch, I was stopped dead in my tracks by the bright chartreuse Romanesco and purple cauliflower.  My creativity immediately started running, what could I make to showcase both of these stars?  So this what I came up with.  I didn't want to cook either and potentially sabotage their vivid colors so I needed to keep them raw....thus a salad.  I continued on my adventure through the market and discovered fresh radish, carrots and beets.  Oooh I...

Jackfruit Carnitas

  Day 43 Plant Based Paleo Journey I seriously can't get enough of these Jackfruit Carnitas.  I continually tell myself that I will try Jackfruit in another form like a pulled Jackfruit sandwich, tacos, burrito bowl, ooooh a buddha bowl, curry, hmp....even pizza....anything really!!! But it hasn't happened.  I cant get over how crispy and salty I can get these and end up recreating the same dish over and over.  So here she is again but this time I got fancier with it.                I needed some sides with my carnitas and since rice and beans are big Paleo no-nos...instead I introduce some carrot and cauliflower rice along with adobo chile sweet potato mash.  I had previously made the sweet potato mash for another dinner and its texture reminded me soooo much of refried beans that I was determined to incorporate it into a Latin inspired meal.  Adding in the adobo chile really hit the spot!   ...
