Chicken Fajitas Style Dinner

Chicken with peppers and mushrooms

My plate chicken and peppers with Avocado

Hello! As promised yesterday here is my post on dinner last night. My husband wanted Burritos… so I decided to make this Chicken Fajita Style dinner, I had tortillas and beans and cheese for the family. Everyone could assemble their own burrito just as they liked it. Since I have given up all grains I could eat the chicken alone with avocado on it.
I want to do a future post on why I have given up grains. For now I will tell you it has been 4 months and I feel great! I have so much energy through the day. I sleep like a rock. I have experienced an overall feeling of wellness. If you are interested in learning more I highly recommend this book.Grain Brain

Kale Chips

Homemade Kale Chips Try these @ home they are a fun finger food, that is a healthy snack for the entire family. INGREDIENTS 1 bunch of kale, washed and dried thoroughly olive oil, for drizzling sea salt, for sprinkling DIRECTIONS Preheat the oven to 275 degrees Remove the ribs from the kale and cut into chip size pieces. Lay on a baking sheet, make sure to not crowd, I used 2 rimmed baking sheets. Toss the kale with the olive oil and salt, I found this easier to use your hands to toss the kale to make sure each leaf was coated evenly. Bake until crisp, turning the leaves halfway through, about 20 minutes. Serve as finger food. Let me know how your family likes this one!!

You could defiantly make this healthier by using brown rice and your own tomato sauce topping, for our family we make it just like Grammy does. Ingredients 1 lb. ground turkey 1 Cup instant rice 1 small head of cabbage, chopped 1 can instant cambells tomato soup 1 medium onion, chopped Directions Brown the turkey and chopped onions, adding salt and pepper to taste. Once the turkey and onions are done cooking remove from the heat and stir in the instant rice.
