I posted these on my Facebook page and everyone wanted to know my recipe. Honestly when I posted them I didn’t have a real recipe. These are so easy I just toss everything in a muffin pan, bake, cool and store so they can be reheated all week for breakfast. My boys love that they can pull it out of the refrigerator themselves and toss it in the microwave. When we reheat these we only heat them for around 40 seconds, otherwise they will get crunchy.

My general recipe for a 12 muffin tin:
12 eggs (we strongly prefer farm fresh)
2 heaping tbsp of cooked meat (we use turkey breakfast sausage, ham or bacon would work well also)
Various vegetables. If the veggies are hard like peppers, onions then we pre-saute them until they are soft. If the vegetable is already soft like spinach, kale or arugula we just toss it in.

Directions:
Grease each cup of the muffin tin. We use a Pampered Chef tin so I don’t use liners.
In a large bowl scramble your 12 eggs.
Place 2 tbsp of meat in each muffin cup.
Add vegetables to the top.
Fill each cup with egg about 3/4 of the way to the top. The egg will expand.
Bake at 375 degrees for about 35 minutes until the tops are golden and the centers are no longer runny.

If you really want to change it up sometimes we add spices like creole seasoning or garlic. The boys really just like the turkey sausage and egg muffins. Experiment a little and see what your family likes!

Salsa verde pork loin recipe!

My friend was telling me about this super simple, delicious meal that she prepares for her family and I knew I had to try it! I used four ingredients, but you really could use only two and have it turn out fantastic! This would be an excellent main course for those who are pressed for time. It worked beautifully in my crockpot, but I am sure you could easily cook it in a pot on the stove on low. I added fresh, roasted green chilies and cumin to mine. If you would like to see the video about how to roast fresh green chilies CLICK HERE. You could also always use canned green chilies!

[wp_ad_camp_2]

Ingredients:
1 Pork loin
1 jar salsa verde (green salsa) fresh or canned green chilies (optional)
1 tsp cumin

Instructions: Place everything above in a crockpot and slow cook on low for 6 hours or until the meat is falling apart. See? Simple!

Serving suggestions:
Pulled salsa verde pork loin over a bed of fresh spinach.
Pulled salsa verde pork loin over zucchini noodles.
Pulled salsa verde pork loin “tacos” using romaine lettuce.
Pulled salsa verde pork over cilantro lime cauli-rice.
Pulled salsa verde pork in an omelet.

The serving ideas are endless! Get creative! Heck, we re-heated it later and ate it as it was! It was insanely delicious and so ridiculously easy! This will definitely make it into our Paleo monthly meal plan!

This can also be made into puled pork by cooking until the meat is falling apart and shredding it with two forks!

Avocado Chicken Salad

In our house we have two favorites: chicken thighs and avocado. I was really looking for a way to make a Paleo friendly chicken salad to put into lettuce wraps, but all the recipes had mayonnaise in them. I still wanted the creamy texture of chicken salad so I decided to mash-up avocado with chicken and it was a total hit! I could eat this stuff right out of the bowl! This Avocado Chicken Salad is an ultimate summer salad and is so refreshing and delicious! Here is the recipe for the Avocado Chicken Salad we made:

[wp_ad_camp_2]

Ingredients:
1 whole avocado (Remove pit and dice)
2 chicken thighs (De-boned and chopped)
A squeeze of Lime juice
Garlic (powder or crushed)
1/4 cup Cilantro chopped
1/4 cup Red Onion chopped
Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)

Instructions:
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and serve immediately. We serve this with either iceberg or romaine or butter lettuce leaves or use bell peppers, cucumbers or carrots to dip in it.

My family LOVES these muffins! I love that they are ONLY three ingredients and they have a hidden ingredient that nobody will know is there! Pumpkin!! There is no oil or eggs in this recipe! Just water, pumpkin, cake mix and chocolate! They are so much better for you and I promise you can’t even taste the pumpkin! Plus, if you are on weight watchers, these have a low points value!

Chocolate 3 ingredient muffins

1 boxed chocolate cake mix (I used sugar free)

1 small can of pumpkin puree 15 ounce

6 ounces of chocolate chips

**MAKES 48 mini  cupcakes**

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix together cake mix and canned pumpkin. It is best to use a mixer for about 2 minutes on medium speed to get fluffier cupcakes.

Add in almost all of the 6 ounces of chocolate chips

Put in a muffin tin with liners. Batter is dense and does not rise much so these can be filled to the top.

Add a few tiny chips to the tops.

Bake for 22-25 min until a toothpick inserted comes out clean!

**ENJOY!**
