Whole 9 Seminar

If you are thinking about going Paleo or just want to learn more about it, check out whole9life.com I went to one of their seminars, and although I thought I already knew alot about nutrition, I learned sooo much and got the modivation to go all out Paleo, in which I have now been doing for a week and a half and already feel sooo much better! One thing I learned was that just cutting out a tiny bit of something non-paleo (such as dairy)(cream in your coffee everyday), can make a huge difference. I used think dairy was okay, but now I'm realizing, its for baby cows, not humans! Anyways, if you don't agree, try cutting it out completely for 30 days, and just see what happens. Its only 30 days of your life. The main thing that is hardest for me is not drinking lattes! But the post above this one will have a delicious alternative to lattes, check it out.

Coconut Almond Butter Chicken

I dont know if you guys saw the other almond butter chicken, but this one is much easier and better I think.

Ingredients:

1 chicken breast sliced in cubes
Trader joes frozen mixed veggies in butter sauce
1-2 cups of raw spinach
1-2 T of almond butter
any other veggies you want to add
1/4 cup of coconut milk

Heat coconut oil in nonstick cooking pan. Add frozen veggies and chicken and cook for a few minutes stirring occasionally. Pour in coconut milk, lower heat and cover. Simmer for 8-10 minutes (whenever chicken is cooked through). Add almond butter and spinach and stir constantly until evenly mixed in. You can also add coconut flakes to it which makes it even more delicious!
