Paleo Smokey Turkey Veg Frittata

I realised I don't tend to post my savoury meals half as much as my sweet ha!
This one was so yum, it deserves a good mention!

Ingredients
- 250g Turkey Breast Mince
- 1 Leek Grated
- 1 Red Onion Chopped
- 1/4 Red Cabbage Grated
- 1/2 Courgette Grated
- 1/2 Sweet Potato Grated
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- 3 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 8 Eggs
- 4 Mushrooms
- Handful of Fresh Spinach

(PLEASE NOTE - This makes 4 Large Servings)

* Heat a large frying pan.
* Add all of your vegetables, onions and sweet potato to the pan and fry on high for a few minutes until softened a little...
* Add your turkey mince, sprinkle over your cinnamon and paprika and keep stirring as your mince cooks through.
* Once you are sure your mince is cooked through, whisk together your eggs and pour evenly over all of the mixture. (you may need to quickly stir to coat evenly)
* Leave this cooking on a medium heat for around 5 minutes and heat your grill.
* Slice your mushrooms and arrange on the top of your frittata. Sprinkle the spinach around the edges.
* Move the frying pan into your grill and grill the frittata for around 5/10mins. I suggest you keep an eye out though, they can go from undercooked to burnt VERY quickly!
* When the top is lovely and browned, your frittata is ready to go!

Blueberry & Banana Bread French Toast with Homemade Sausage Patty & Spinach

So, here is something that was born of a couple of other things ha!
For the Turkey Sausage meat recipe, read previous posts, here is the French Toast recipe...

* 2 Slices of Your Homemade Blueberry & Banana Protein Bread
* 2 Egg Whites
* 1/2 cup almond milk
* A few drops of vanilla
* 1/2 tsp cinnamon

(Side note - you can add honey to your liquid mixture if you like a little sweetness, I chose not)

* Heat a good non stick frying pan on low heat.
* Whisk together your egg whites, almond milk, vanilla and cinnamon (and honey if using).
* Pour onto a plate, and lay your slices of bread into the mixture.
* Allow each side to absorb some liquid a little, then flip over and do the same on the other side.
* Place in your frying pan! Give them a good few mins on either side.

* Add your Turkey Sausage Patties and a handful of fresh spinach!

Paleo Carrot & Cauliflower Protein Pancakes with Homemade Turkey Sausage Patties & Avocado

So, someone requested the recipe for these guys, so here it goes!
I'll sort of have to remember, as I create things as I go along ha!

Turkey Sausage Mix (Shape into whatever takes your fancy :) )

- 500g Turkey Breast Mince
- 2 Red Onions
- 10 Brussel Sprouts
- Black Pepper
- 2 Egg Whites

* Grate the onions and sprouts into a bowl. Add black pepper to your liking, then add the turkey mince and egg whites and work together well with your hands.
* That's it! When you're ready to use it shape into whatever you wish and dry fry or bake! (Takes longer to fry than pancakes so I always set these off cooking before I make my pancake mixture)

Carrot & Cauliflower Protein Pancakes

* 2 Egg Whites
* 1 Cup Almond Milk (either use agave sweetened or add 1tbsp Honey)
* 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla
* 2 Scoops Unflavoured Hemp Protein Powder (If you use an alternative and it's vanilla flavoured, then just omit the above vanilla)
* 1 tsp Spirulina Powder (optional)
* 1 cup Almond Flour (Ground Almonds)
* 2 tsp Cinnamon
* 1 tsp Ginger
* 2 tsp Paprika
* 1 Carrot (grated)
* 4 Large Cauliflower Florets (grated) this is roughly 2 cups of grated cauliflower.

* Put good non stick pan on LOW heat.
* Mix together egg whites, almond milk and vanilla.
* Add protein powder, spirulina, almond flour, cinnamon, ginger and paprika and mix well.
* Add your grated carrot and cauliflower and give a final good mix. Mixture should be thick, and if using hemp and spirulina will be dark green :-) ha!
* Cook pancakes in whatever shapes you like on low heat, when bubbles appear all across the top then flip and cook the other side...


Finally!

* Stack your pancakes up, arrange your sausage patties on top and then slice up half of an avocado and serve!

PS - Don't buy hemp protein especially, I know whey isn't paleo, but if you are lenient in your protein powder choices then whey protein will add extra tastiness to these bad boys!

PPS - Turkey sausage mix will refridgerate or freeze so you can use when you fancy!

PPS - So will pancake mix...

PPPS - Going now! Lol!

Paleo Paella

Now, before I make the Spanish people hiss at me, I realise this is in no way anywhere near a traditional Paella... Ok, so, now that's out of the way here goes...

- 1 head of cauliflower chopped into tiny bits
- heaped tsp coconut oil
- Small red onion sliced
- 1/2 cup mushrooms sliced
- 200g diced turkey breast
- 1 small courgette/zucchini
- 1 heaped tsp smoked paprika (add more or less to your liking)
- 200g king prawns
- 2 large handfuls of fresh spinach leaves

*Heat a large frying pan and put coconut oil in until melted...
*Keep pan on high heat and add your cauliflower 'rice' and onions and fry for 5 minutes.
*Add mushrooms, turkey and courgette and sprinkle over paprika.
*Keep stirring every couple of minutes until turkey is cooked through and your 'paella' turns a lovely golden brown colour.
*At this point, add your prawns and spinach and stir through. Leave to fry for another few minutes.
* Give it another stir, making sure everything is evenly displaced and evenly browned and then serve!!
* ENJOY!

Side Note - If I'd have had any in I would have added squid and maybe clams to this too. Or any yummy seafood.

Paleo Banana Pancakes

Ok, you have to believe me when I say that these in no way taste like they're healthy! Every time since I created the recipe I have to make sure I didn't put something 'bad' in without paying attention! THAT'S how amazing they are! AND GUILT FREE!
These grain free, dairy free pancakes are by no means 'settling'... I would take these over the regular bad boys any day!

Lauren's Paleo Banana Pancakes

- 1 Banana Mashed

- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder

* Heat really good non stick pan on LOW...

* Add almond flour, cinnamon and baking powder and mix really well until pretty much smooth (the mixture should be quite thick)
