Recipe Time- Paleo Style

So I am not a cook.

I do not like to cook.

Our food used to come from a box or one of the recipes I have memorized from growing up. Ex) Meatloaf, Beef Veggie Soup, Pinto Beans, etc...

On the other hand, I LOVE to bake.

I like to make anything from homemade cookies to Banana Split Cake!!

Dislike Cooking - Love Baking...not a good combo for this Paleo Bound lady.

But this weekend I threw my own little concoction together and it turned out pretty well! It was very basic but yummy! Also there might be a recipe out there like this however know that I did not look at any recipes but just used what I had at home!

Almond Crusted Pork Chops

4- 3/4in sliced pork tenderloin or chops
Dijon Mustard
1cup of Almond Flour
Salt
Pepper
Coconut Oil





Preheat oven 375

Grease glass baking dish with a little coconut oil

Combine Almond Flour, Salt and Pepper on 
a plate

Put a dab of Dijion mustard on one side of the pork and brush all over 
place mustard side down in the flour mixture then put another dab of mustard on the top side and repeat

Once both sides are covered with flour place in a glass baking dish

Repeat with all pork chops 

Put in oven and back for 20-25min



That is it! Super Simple, Super Quick and if you are doing Paleo you should have everything on hand! These were a winner for my whole family!

As a combine side I sautee'd some veggies in Coconut Oil(prob about 2tbls) and 3 cloves of garlic. Put the lid on and let them steam...so delicious!! 
A combination of broccoli, cauliflower, sweet peppers, onion, mushrooms and the garlic is so very yummy! I highly recommend it! 
YUMMY SAUTEE'D VEGGIES



One more recipe but I can't take credit for this one.

This is from my dear friend Melissa. She make the best guacamole around. I could sit down and eat the entire bowl myself!  

BEST EVA GUACAMOLE



2 Soft Avocados
2 Roma Tomatoes
1/2-1tsp Garlic Salt
1/2-3/4tsp Ground Cumin

Mush Avocados with a fork, dice up tomatoes mix together in a bowl. Add Garlic salt and ground cumin, mix well and taste. If there is not enough flavor add more garlic salt!! 

That is it! 

Seriously its the best stuff EVAAA!!

I busted out Jamie Eason's Day 15 yesterday and my booty is a burning! Whew...this week is going to be brutal! 

Here is Today, Day 16, at home workout!

I don't know why it's blurry, follow me on Instagram for a clearer pic

I hope you ladies are busting it with me! I can start to see a difference in my body and I'm very excited about the changes to come! 

HAPPY TUESDAY YA'LL

    1. They were really really good! Another good thing to do is just bake them with salt and pepper then make a Honey/Apple topping to put on top of them! I will be doing that either friday or next week! :) Hope you guys enjoy!
