Granola (paleo)

1 cup pumpkin seeds

1 cup sliced almonds

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup sunflower seeds

1 cup crumbled plantain chips (or substitute with dried fruit and/or shredded coconut)

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1/3 cup coconut oil

1/4 cup raw honey

2 Tbsp pure maple syrup

1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp salt

​​​

1. Preheat oven to 300º F

2. In a large bowl, add all the dry ingredients: nuts, seeds, plantain chips, cranberries, shredded coconut, pumpkin pie spice and salt

3. Line a large baking sheet or pan with parchment paper (a 10" X 15" pan seemed to be the perfect size)

4. In a small sauce pan on low heat, add the coconut oil, honey, maple syrup and vanilla and stir just until melted and warm

5. Pour the mixture over all the dry ingredients in the large bowl and mix well. I just used my hands

6. Spread the sticky granola across the parchment-lined pan to form an even layer

7. Bake about 25 minutes. You just want a nice golden-brown color on top. Don't overdo it, the granola will burn on the bottom – remove the pan sooner rather than later! (Cooking times and temperatures will vary – check granola often toward the end of the cooking time)

8. Remove from oven and let cool completely

9. Break apart in clumps and seal in an airtight container

Meatzah

1lb ground beef–I used Grass Fed Beef

1lb ground pork

2 eggs

2–3 cups marinara-no sugar added**

1 container mushrooms

1 zucchini

1/2 onion, roughly sliced

5–6 garlic cloves, pressed

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

2 teaspoon oregano

1 teaspoon parsley

1 teaspoon thyme

basil, to garnish

​

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Pull out a large mixing bowl and add your beef, pork and eggs and mix well to combine.

  3. Now add in all your spices to your meat mixture: garlic and onion powder, oregano, parsley, and thyme and thoroughly mix the spices in with the meat.

  4. Now grab a 9 x 11 baking dish and throw your ball of meat into the dish and press down until meat is the same thickness throughout.

  5. Bake for 15 minutes.

  6. While the meat is baking, chop your veggies to get them all ready to plop on top of your meatza.

  7. Once the meat is done cooking, pull it out of the oven, top with the rest of the ingredients: marinara, veggies, and garlic.

  8. Put back in the oven for 10 minutes.

  9. Once the the veggies are cooked a bit, turn on your broiler and cook for about 5-7 minutes.

  10. Now eat! Careful, it’s hot hot!! Great for leftovers!
