Bacon Wrapped Veggie Stuffed Chicken - 400 Calories

Bacon, chicken, veggies, what's not to love? Oh, did I mention BACON?? There aren't alot of spices in this recipe because the bacon adds alot of flavor and the cumin and marjoram add a nice, clean flavor.

8 Ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast, split almost all the way through and pounded to about 1/4 inch thin
3 Strips of nitrate free, uncured bacon
4 Asparagus spears
1/2 Red bell pepper, sliced thin
1/4 Red onion, sliced thin
1ish Cup leaf spinach
1 Teaspoon minced garlic
Marjoram
Cumin
Salt
Black pepper
Splash of vegetable broth

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Spray a nonstick pan with olive oil from the misto and heat on high. Add the onion, garlic, red bell pepper, and asparagus and saute for 3 minutes. Add the spinach and a splash of vegetable broth. Saute until the spinach is wilted and remove from heat. Sprinkle the chicken breast with salt, pepper, cumin, and marjoram. Place the vegetables on the chicken breast, then fold/roll closed. Wrap the chicken with the bacon. Place on a pan and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 - 7 minutes and serve.

Cauliflower Leek Soup - 100 Calories

I love cauliflower soup! My grandma and dad make great soup but use flower and cream. This is completely paleo friendly, tastes great, and has my own twist on it!

1 Head of cauliflower
1 Leek
2 Cups of organic vegetable broth
1 Cup unsweetened, silk coconut milk
1 Tablespoon of ghee
1 Teaspoon of salt
1/2 Teaspoon of pepper
1/2 Teaspoon of curry powder

Microwave the cauliflower until soft. Pull all the florets off and place in a pot. In a separate nonstick pan, add the ghee and the leek. Sauté until soft and add to the cauliflower. Mash with a potato masher and add the vegetable broth and coconut milk. With an electric mixer, mix until you get to the consistency you want. I like mine alittle chunky. You can also use an immersion blender to make the soup creamier. Add the spices, stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.

Sweet and Spicy Sriracha Chicken - 483 Calories

Everyone that knows me knows I love the heat. I also love sweet. This dish is the best of both worlds! Sweet and spicy sriracha chicken. Sriracha gives it the heat and honey the sweet. Since commercial sriracha isn't paleo, I found a quick and easy sriracha recipe on nomnompaleo.com (http://nomnompaleo.com/post/36060636540/paleo-sriracha-homemade-20-minute-sriracha). When I made the sriracha, I did not cut and discard the seeds and ribs because I wanted a hotter sauce. I also substituted a plum tomato and unsweetened organic ketchup with 3 drops of organic stevia extract for the tomato paste.

9 Ounces on boneless/skinless chicken breast but into 1 inch chunks

1/2 Red bell pepper cut into 1 inch pieces

1/4 Red onion sliced

6 Stalks of baby bok choy, each stalk cut into 4 pieces

2 Tablespoons of sriracha

1 Tablespoon of minced garlic

1 Tablespoon of ghee

1 Tablespoon of honey

1 Tablespoon organic coconut aminos (soy sauce substitute)

1/2 Teaspoon ginger

Heat ghee in a nonstick pan. Add chicken and sauté until brown. Add the veggies, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 3 minutes and add the coconut aminos. Cook for 3 more minutes. Add honey and sriracha. Cook for 3 more minutes then serve.
