It’s Super Bowl time, and I have the perfect Baked Super Bowl Chicken Drummies snack (or dinner) for you.

These are ridiculously easy to make, and I’ve prepared 4 different “flavors” for you to choose from.

Start out with simple chicken legs.

Soak up the awesome smells they bring your house, but just for a minute…..you’ll be ready to eat them immediately!

Enjoy!

p.s. I won’t lie, the “tea” ones were probably my favorite, and probably because they were so unique. Ryan’s favorites were the Basil Garlic legs. I didn’t try the Spicy ones, but Ryan wanted me to make note for y’all that they are super good, but very spicy….enter at your own risk.

Honestly, you cannot go wrong with this Vegan Lemon Lime Cilantro Spaghetti Squash.

I have been teaching my group of Gutsy ladies the art of flavor with herbs and spices.

They have been eating gluten free, dairy free, grain free, sugar-free, corn free (and more). But don’t worry, they have loved everything on their daily plates. And isn’t this what eating is all about -> fresh, unprocessed food that tastes amazing?!

I have been creating so much, with so little, lately.

Today, I have a Vegan Lemon Lime Cilantro Spaghetti Squash recipe for you.

Filed Under: Dairy Free, Eat, Egg Free, GAPS, Gluten Free, Grain Free, Inspire, Love, Low FODMAP, Paleo, Recipes, scd, Special Diets, Sugar Free, Unprocessed, Wellness Tagged With: , , , , , , , , ,

I was reminded of all the fun things that can be done with spaghetti squash when I came up with this Spider Web Spaghetti Squash Multi Flavored Gluten Free.

I needed another “main dish” recipe for the Holiday, 2012 eBook that I’m currently working on. My SIL mentioned, “What about something with Spaghetti Squash?”

Two things happened:

  1. I got super excited when I remembered I have a Spaghetti Squash and Meatball Boats recipe I’ve never shared with you yet (thus, will be in the eBook) and
  2. I immediately decided to make some multi-flavored spaghetti squash that night

It was good, easy and best of all…..it looked like spider webs so I knew it would be the perfect recipe to share for Halloween!

Mix in the olive oil and sea salt by hand.

Mushroom and Spinach Turkey Burgers

Filed Under: Dairy Free, Eat, GAPS, Gluten Free, Grain Free, Love, Low FODMAP, Paleo, Recipes, scd, Special Diets, Sugar Free, Wellness Tagged With: , , , , , , ,

I eat a lot of boring foods. Boring is subjective, but by Western culture definition, I eat very plain and boring. I don’t classify my Mushroom and Spinach Turkey Burgers in that category, though.

That said, this “boring” way of eating has helped me heal in a thousand ways. 

My boring foods might be boring on their own, but the way I put them together is delish.

Mushroom and Spinach Turkey Burgers Paleo Portobello Mushroom Pizza Nutiva Portobello Mushroom sarahkayhoffman.com

The best example I can (currently) give is turkey. I eat a ton of it, but I make it colorful daily so that it’s never too plain and boring.

Turkey is nothing to write home about.

No one eats turkey plain ole Jane and raves, “Best thing I’ve ever eaten!” Am I right?!

I eat a ton of it. They have ground, organic turkey now at Costco, and that works for us.

But rarely do I eat it as is. I make it colorful daily and dress it up in different ways so that it’s never too plain and boring.

Take these Mushroom and Spinach Turkey Burgers, for example. They are filled with flavor, and if you love turkey, you must try them to spice up the turkey life.
