Recipe | Cucumber Salad

My family likes to eat at this place called Bandera, it's in Scottsdale, Az. I highly recommend it if you live here or if you are coming to visit. But if you are not in the area, I thought I would share this recipe that my sister came up with, that is based off of the cucumber salad there.

Ingredients for about 6 people:

Add all to one bowl

5 mini cucumbers

corn cut from one ear

1 T chopped fresh cilantro

1/2 copped jalapeno

1/4 C. chopped red onion

2 T. capers

1 C. chopped cherry tomatoes

Crumbled goat cheese to taste

One avocado, chopped

 

Dressing:

1 t. salt

1 t. pepper

3 t. sugar (I used coconut sugar)

1/8 C. lemon juice

1/8 C. apple cider vinegar

1/4 C. olive oil

Wisk together & mix into salad

 

I like to put it in the fridge for about 30 minutes before eating it, it even tastes good the next day!

YUM!

Recipe | Pot Sticker Burgers

I orginally got this recipe off of pinterest, but I have recently discovered that it is no longer available on the persons website it was on. It has turned private. So, I thought I would post the recipe here, or the best I can remember it. I am not very good about following recipes anyway, but it is good to semi follow one.

I make my burgers, more like slider size, or almost like big meat ball size.

Ingerdients for burgers:

1 lbs of ground turkey

1 cup finely chopped cole slaw mix (save rest of the bag for the side slaw)

1 egg

2 tablespoons coconut aminos (this is sort of like a soy sauce, you can find it at health food stores, like Sprouts)

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 salt

Mix above ingredents together in a bowl, then form into patties of desired size, then cook them on a skillet, like pictured above.

 

Ingredients for cole slaw:

Rest of cole slaw mix

4 tablespoons of coconut aminos

2 tablespoons of rice wine vinegar

1/4 cup peanut oil

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon coconut sugar

salt & pepper to taste

Mix above ingredents in a bowl, refrigerate until burgers are ready.

 

**Sauteed veggies are good with the burgers & slaw also.

Enjoy!!!

 

Paleo Potsticker Burgers. 102313

I try to cook dinner paleo style. Our family loves this paleo recipe, I found it on pinterest but the original recipe is here. 

Pretty much I make sliders out of them & then either put them over a cabbage/slaw or a bunch of sateed veggies. My kids eat them on a bun, like a slider burger.

They are a huge hit & we make them every couple weeks now!

YUM!
