\"GF<\/a>Since it was Sunday and I wanted to do something a little more fun and special for breakfast. \u00a0I wanted to make a quiche but needed some direction on how to make a grainfree crust.<\/p>\n

Thankfully the internet is chock full of recipes!<\/p>\n

I made a quick crust using the recipe from Elana’s Pantry<\/a>. \u00a0This quiche will be a recipe once the challenge is over!<\/p>\n

This crust was similiar to like a graham cracker crust, where you have to mold it around the pie plate.\u00a0The crust worked out great though! \u00a0I’m going to tweak it just a tad to fit our tastes and I would like to make it so that I could roll it out. The coconut flavor from the oil was a little overpowering and I would like something more subtle.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"GF<\/p>\n

This experiment worked out though and we had a delicious breakfast! \u00a0Asparagus quiche with some uncured Canadian Bacon on the side.<\/p>\n

I split a gigantic apple with Scott later as a snack. \u00a0I dipped it in some almond butter for extra umph. \u00a0That breakfast was a hefty one and all the protein lasted me well until late afternoon.<\/p>\n

My exercise for the day was getting some Vitamin D! \u00a0It was so nice out and the skies were clear, so the dogs and I headed to the backyard to catch some rays.<\/p>\n

It was glorious! \u00a0Considering Saturday was a hot mess where it was cold and snowed all day, this was a nice change.<\/p>\n

Dinner was quick and easy!<\/p>\n

\"Roast<\/a><\/p>\n

Chicken breast from a roasted chicken and some saut\u00e9ed cabbage and onions. \u00a0Sometimes I think cabbage gets overlooked as a veggie. \u00a0Most people either use it in cole slaw or for making cabbage rolls.<\/p>\n

But cabbage saut\u00e9ed in some ghee with onions and a little bit of salt and pepper is a really great side dish. \u00a0It’s easy and it tastes amazing. \u00a0The cabbage gets a sweetness as it cooks that is surprising.<\/p>\n

The evening was spent on the couch watching a really bad hockey game. \u00a0Scott and I snacked on dark chocolate chips paired with fruit juice sweetened dried cranberries.<\/p>\n

\"Steve's<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m not a fan of chocolate and fruit (ew) but this combo is my favorite! \u00a0I picked up some of Steve’s Paleo Dried Cranberries<\/a>. \u00a0These were the only dried cranberries in the store that didn’t have sugar added to them.<\/p>\n

The. Only. Ones.<\/p>\n

They are fantastic though! \u00a0Both Scott and I love them, and I hope they come in a bigger bag! \u00a0They are sweetened with apple juice so the sweetness isn’t overpowering at all. \u00a0The cranberries are huge whole dried cranberries so they pack a punch. \u00a0If you see them out, give them a try!<\/p>\n

Disclaimer: I found these at the store and bought them myself. Opinions are my own. \u00a0Steve’s Paleo has no idea who I am.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sorry that this post was delayed! We were rearranging our office yesterday and it wasn’t set up yet so that I could post!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
