I have been playing a LOT with cranberries this holiday season, in many different ways, and have completely fallen in love with them as an ingredient. Such little bursts of color and flavor! This Cranberry Chicken Stuffed Squash is my favorite cranberry creation to date: there are many layers to the flavor, such as the warmly savory shredded chicken, the subtle sweetness of onions and parsnips[...]
To be honest, this Spaghetti Squash Chicken Chorizo Skillet is a riff on grain-free paella. But... I forgot the shrimp, so it has no rice, no seafood, and no right to be called any type of paella. But! It does have golden chunks of chicken and savory slices of chorizo on a bed of smoky paprika-spiked vegetables, so I think it still has a lot of tastiness to offer. I made it for a pale[...]
I called out that this is paleo pot pie in the title, but that's not to say that these sweet babies are just "good enough for paleo". It's my goal to publish recipes on Fresh Planet Flavor that are... good. Objectively. Of course, the definition varies person to person, and there's no getting around the fact that my taste-buds have adjusted after years of trying to avoid refin[...]
Getting right down to brass tacks, because none of us have any time at all right these days (amirite?): the rich flavor of this slow cooker curry and its hands-off technique make for the perfect meal-prep situation. Load the ingredients into the slow cooker in 20 minutes flat before leaving for the office and low, slow heat does the rest while I'm gone? Sold. You could shave&nb[...]
This Chicken Scallopini is quite non-traditional. But that never stopped me before, and this version is delicious in its own way. I'd say it tastes both rich and fresh at the same time... although you might think that those are mutually exclusive characteristics! Traditional scallopini is made with noodles, mushrooms, broth, white wine and cream. Very heavy, and not Paleo in the slightes[...]
Sometimes I get a craving for Indian food. Warm, thick, spicy, creamy... and vindaloo--a tangy, spicy curry from Goa, India that was originally brought to the region by Portuguese colonists--is a particular favorite of mine. There are plenty of great Indian restaurants in San Francisco, but the only way I really know I'm eating clean these days is to make it at home. Luckily, this re[...]
It may not look like much, but this Slow Cooker Curried Chicken Stew is something that I've made again and again. Each iteration a little different, because why not when it's such a simple formula? The delight is in the tweaking. I paired it with rice, here, but if you're avoiding grains then, by all means, enjoy it with some caulirice, heaped in a roasted bell pepper, or simply by[...]
I don't know when I first tasted chicken and biscuits. Maybe my beloved Texas grandmother made it for me, I can't be sure. What I very much DO know is that this is the perfect dish to serve on a cold winter night, preferably in front of a roaring fire. Like a deconstructed chicken pot pie, you top this unfussy recipe with biscuits instead of a crust. Tip: this dish is a great way to make use o[...]
