After completing Whole30 the hubby
and I started focusing on eating paleo as much as possible. We’ve had the
occasional glass of wine and sweet treat on the weekend, but overall we’re 95%
paleo. With that said I’ve been on a mission to find new tasty and health paleo dishes.
While searching for new recipes I decided to buy Against All Grain: Delectable Paleo Recipes to Eat Well & Feel Great. I never thought I would love a
cookbook as much as I do Against All Grain! Danielle Walker is a genius and
food wizard!

Danielle’s recipes are simple, easy to make
and delicious. Each dish I’ve made has been a hit in our house. Best part you
don’t even realize you’re eating paleo!

Danielle created over 150 recipes and
all of them are grain, legume and dairy free. Including a wide variety of baked
goods, desert and even grain-free granola and breakfast recipes!

Let’s get to good part! The food.
Hands down the best gluten/dairy free
bread I’ve ever eaten. It’s moist, dense and fluffy all at the same time — the
secret ingredient is cashew butter. I sliced it right up and made a chicken
salad sandwich! This morning I enjoyed a slice with raspberries perseveres and
fresh carrot orange juice.

Slow Cooked Chicken Tacos
I love mexican food. Chips &
guacamole, street tacos and margaritas — that’s my jam. When I saw this recipe
I knew I had to give it a try. Instead of using a tortilla, the hubby and I
enjoyed the chicken over shredded cabbage and topped it was avocado. Think of
it as a taco salad.

Mexican Chicken Chowder (similar)
Our weekly cook-up includes some type
of soup. During winter months soup is a filling easy on-the-go lunch. At first I
wasn’t sure about the recipe, but was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.
The combination of sweet potato, spinach and chili peppers was a little fiesta in my
mouth.

Curry Chicken Salad
Chicken salad is another weekly
staple, but I never thought about curry! Grab some leafy greens and top it with
a scoop or two of the Curry Chicken salad and you have lunch! The flavor will keep you wanting more.

These are just a few of the items I’ve made from Against All Grain. I’m looking forward to diving into the desert section.
