Default Flax or Almond Quick Bread - aka Rivvin's Angry Bread

Your Hardware:
A square or round glass container roughly the size of bread with a flat bottom.

Your Software:
1/4th cup flax meal or almond meal (they are both delicious)
2 tbsp fat (coconut oil or butter)
1 tsp baking powder
1 egg

Mix all of that together very well and then pour it in your container.
Microwave it for 1 minute 20 seconds.

Congratulations, you just made some bread. Now pop it out of the container and onto a plate and let it cool off and firm up a bit.

Repeat for a 2 sided sammich.

Note: The author is playful and takes on the persona of bread that has been rejected, some of the language he uses may offend.

I read Rivvin's whole thread on MDA a few week ago -hilarious!

So, how did your "bread" turn out? I'm going to try it soon.

[COLOR="Black"]Strawberry-Topped Chicken and Baby Spinach Salad[/color] (from Rachael Ray magazine)
8 oz fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1 small shallot
3 1/2 tbs balsamic vinegar
3 1/2 tbs veg oil (I would sub evoo probly)
1 tsp honey
3 skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lbs) (I plan to use any leftover chicken I have around)
1 bag (6 oz) baby spinach
2 oz goat cheese log, sliced into 4 rounds
1/4 bunch chives, chopped (I plan to use dried as I don't have fresh right now - and estimate)

1. In a blender, puree one-quarter of the strawberries, the shallot, 2 1/2 tbs balsamic vinegar, 2 tbs oil, honey. Season with salt and pepper.

2. Season chicken with salt/pepper. Heat remaining oil in skillet over medium heat, add chicken and cook, turning once, until cooked through, about 8 minutes, tranfer to a plate and tent with foil. (I'll just be using some leftover chicken)

3. Meanwhile, add remaining strawberries, balsamic vinegar and 1/4 c water to the skillet and simmer, stirring until the berries are warmed through, about 1 minute.

4. in large bowl, toss spinach with strawberry vinaigrette and divide among 4 plates. Slice chicken into 1/4 inch thick slices and place on top with the warm strawberries, goat cheese and chives. Season with salt/pepper.

Doesn't it just sound like spring!!!

Default Paleo Scotch Eggs

Scotch Eggs

- 4 eggs
- 1 pound of lean sausage (minimum of 70% meat is best)
- oil for cooking

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Prepare hardboiled eggs according to your recipe and cool in ice water. Peel when cooled.

Roll or pat 1/4 pound of sausage evenly flat, wrap around each egg, making sure that none of the egg remains exposed. Fry in medium hot oil on stove top, rolling frequently to brown evenly (this will take about 8 min).

Finish off in the oven for 6 to 8 minutes to ensure that sausage is completely cooked. Eat at once or chill and serve cold later.

Good with pickles or hot sauce or mayonnaise or condiment of your choice.

Based on recipe at Mark'sDailyApple.com
