LOW CARB - Grilled Chipotle Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Serves: 2

1-2 chicken thighs, depending on size

2 T. 100% pure avocado oil

1 T. smoked paprika

1 t. ground chipotle pepper (or more if you like spicy!)

2 t. cinnamon

1 T. garlic salt

1 t. black pepper

-------------------

2 sweet potatoes, baked (45 min - 1 hr at 450F or 230C)

1 c. kale, chopped

1/2 bell pepper, chopped

1 T. EVOO

squeeze of fresh lemon juice

sea salt & pepper, to taste

handful pepitas, lightly toasted (optional for garnish, use whatever nut/seed you have handy)

Directions:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Coat the chicken breasts liberally with avocado oil. Season evenly with paprika, chipotle, cinnamon, garlic salt, and pepper. Allow to sit for 10-15 minutes before moving to the grill.

Grill for 5-10 minutes per side (depending on size of chicken thighs and what type of grill you're using) or until grill marks show. Set aside to rest and come to room temperature. Once cooled, shred chicken using 2 forks held back to back, like this.

When the chicken is grilling, chop your kale and bell pepper and add to a large bowl. Mix EVOO, lemon juice, sea salt, and pepper in and massage lightly with your fingers to soften the kale. Add the shredded chicken in and toss well.

To assemble, slice the sweet potatoes open lengthwise and mash the insides slightly. Scoop large spoonfuls of the chicken/kale mixture into the middle of each sweet potato. Sprinkle with pepitas for garnish. Then gobble it up, skins and all! Can be served warm or at room temperature.

VEGGIE - Grilled Vegetable Wrap

Makes 2 wraps

30 minutes or fewer
When you roast asparagus, bell pepper, and squash for this recipe, you’ll be making extra veggies and squash that can be added to salads, pasta, or rice dishes later in the week.

12 thin asparagus spears, trimmed
1 small red bell pepper, cut into ½-inch strips (1 cup)
1 small yellow summer squash or zucchini, cut into ¼-inch-thick rounds (1 cup)
1 Tbs. olive oil
½ cup white beans
1 small clove garlic, minced (½ tsp.)
½ tsp. red chile sauce, such as sriracha
2 8-inch whole-grain tortillas
6 small whole basil leaves
8 thin slices red onion
1 cup baby arugula leaves

1. Preheat grill or broiler. Toss together asparagus, bell pepper, squash, and oil on large baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Grill or broil vegetables 4 to 6 minutes per side, turning once.
2. Mash together beans, garlic, and chile sauce in small bowl until smooth.
3. Spread half of bean mixture over each tortilla. Top each with 3 basil leaves, 1/2 cup roasted vegetables, 4 onion slices, and 1/2 cup arugula. Fold bottom third of tortillas over vegetables, and roll up tightly, tucking in sides as you go. Cut wraps in half on diagonal. Serve immediately, or wrap each half in foil or wax paper, and chill until ready to eat.

Healthy Sweet Potato Skins

Author: Pinch of Yum
Prep time: 20 mins
Cook time: 60 mins
Total time: 1 hour 20 mins
Serves: 2-3

Ingredients
• 2 medium or large sweet potatoes
• 1½ tablespoons butter
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 bag fresh baby spinach
• ¼ cup light sour cream
• 2 ounces light cream cheese
• 1 cup chickpeas
• ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Bake sweet potatoes at 350 for 45-60 minutes, or until fork tender.

3. Scrape the sweet potato out of the peel, leaving a thin layer inside with the peel so that it can stand up on its own. Mash the sweet potato with the cream cheese and sour cream. Stir in chickpeas, spinach, and salt and pepper.
4. Coat potato skins with a drizzle of oil and bake for about 5 minutes to get a crispier outside. Remove from oven and fill each skin with the sweet potato mixture and top with shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake again for 10-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and filling is heated through.

VEGGIE - Zucchini Pancakes with Sautéed Tomatoes and Feta

Ingredients

For the pancakes:

2 medium zucchinis

2 eggs

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup diced onion

2 cloves minced garlic

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper

For the sauteed tomatoes:

1 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered

1/4 cup onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

Salt and pepper

Crumbled feta cheese
Instructions

1. Use a grater to shred the zucchini, and set aside.

2. In a bowl, combine egg, flour, onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well, then gently stir in shredded zucchini and parmesan cheese.

3. Heat a skillet/griddle to medium. Spray with nonstick spray if needed/desired. Scoop spoonfuls of pancake batter into the center of the pan, spreading the batter to about 1/4 inch thick and about 4 inches wide. The batter will not naturally spread itself out – don’t be afraid to shape the pancake as you scoop. Cook pancake for about 3 minutes until underside is golden, then flip with a spatula and cook for an additional 3 minutes on the other side. When pancake is complete, set aside on a clean plate (or, if you’re like me, preheat your oven to a very low heat, line a baking sheet with foil, and place the pancakes in the oven as you make them – they’ll stay warm as you put everything else together).

4. Meanwhile, begin preparing the sauteed tomatoes. Heat another pan over medium heat. Add olive oil, minced garlic, and onions to the pan and saute for 2-3 minutes until the onions soften and become fragrant. Add tomatoes and a pinch of salt and pepper. Saute the tomato mixture for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes have softened and are heated through.

5. To serve, scoop tomato mixture on top of the zucchini pancakes and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Enjoy!

#1 Spinach and ricotta frittata

Serves for 2

1tbsp oil
1/2 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
100g mushrooms, sliced
3 eggs
50ml milk
Black pepper
100g ricotta cheese
50g fresh spinach, thinly chopped

Heat the oil in a frying pan, and cook the onion, garlic and mushrooms over a medium heat for 5 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent.

Meanwhile, lightly beat the eggs with the milk and plenty of black pepper.

In a separate mug or bowl, combine the spinach and ricotta.

Remove the onion mixture from the heat, and transfer to an oven-proof dish if you’re planning on baking your frittata. If not, leave it in the pan. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables, and dollop the ricotta mixture on top, ensuring that all areas of the frittata get some ricotta.

If you’ve constructed your frittata right in the frying pan, use this method to cook your eggs, alternating between the hob and the grill to cook the frittata from both sides. Alternatively, place your oven-proof dish in the oven, and bake for around 20 minutes at 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F), until the eggs have set.
