Paleo Onion Rings
Yield: 35-40 Pieces

Ingredients
- 1 red onion
- 2/3 cup cashew meal
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 3 eggs, beaten
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Chop the ends off the onion, peel and slice the onion (larger than 1/4" thick). Remove the rings and transfer the smaller bits to a dish for later use in a salad or dressing.
- Prepare the stations. I used my Pampered Chef coating trays but you can easily use a few glass dishes or bowls. In the first station beat your eggs until the yolks and whites are combined. In the second station combine the cashew meal, sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. In the third station spread a layer of parchment across your baking sheet and let's get dippin'!
- Dip the onion rings into the beaten eggs and using the fork for the egg station flip the onion so it's equally coated. Transfer the dipped onion to the cashew mixture and use a new fork for the second station to flip and equally coat in the dry mixture. Then transfer the coated onion to the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Continue this process until your baking sheet is filled. Note: If you don't let all the drips drop off before you move from the egg station to the cashew station your dry mixture will start to clump up fast and you will need to add more ingredients and start over. So be sure to let the drips drop.
- Bake the onions for 6 minutes, flip and bake for an additional 4 minutes. Transfer to the broiler for 30 seconds to a minute to brown and finish. Let the onion rings cool. They will firm up further if you let them sit. Patience, my dear.
- Enjoy! :)
Turmeric Pickled Eggs
Yield: 8 Pickled Eggs

Ingredients
- 1 cup organic apple cider vinegar
- 2 4-inch pieces of fresh turmeric, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 jalapeño peppers, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 1 cup water
- 8 eggs, hard boiled & peeled
Directions
- Bring the vinegar, turmeric (you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground turmeric if you don't have a fresh piece), jalapeño peppers, garlic, mustard seeds, sea salt and water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir everything until the salt is dissolved. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the brine cool to room temperature.
- Put the eggs in a glass container, such as a mason jar, or something that will hold all of them comfortably.
- Pour the cooled vinegar mixture over the eggs and push them down to submerge. Cover and refrigerate everything for 2-4 hours so the eggs can infuse the color and flavor.
- When you slice the eggs in half you'll find a golden ring on the outside. If you'd like the golden color to flow all the way through to the yolk you can leave them in the brine for 24 hours or longer.
- Transfer the eggs from the brine to a new container. You can keep the eggs in a covered container in the refrigerator for about a week.
- Serve the turmeric pickled eggs as a snack or appetizer or simply add them to your salad.
- Enjoy! :)

- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Fill the skillet with meatballs, evenly spaced apart. When balls start to brown and cook halfway up the sides, flip then over.
- While the meatballs are going in the pan, add the avocado, spinach, lime juice, fresh ginger chunk, stoneground mustard, olive oil and 2-3 pinches of sea salt to a food processor. Process until everything is mixed and creamy. Give it a taste to test whether more sea salt is necessary. Transfer to a small serving bowl then return to the skillet.
- Continue to move the meatballs over in the pan to keep warm. Crowd the pan by adding more raw balls to the skillet to start to cook. Brown meatballs on all sides and be sure they are cooked throughout before you transfer them from the skillet to a large serving bowl.
