01/30/2012 1 Comment

You are looking at an amazing dish of scrambled eggs, Colombian style.   This picture was taken in Colombia at Henry’s parents’ house.  Anita, their maid, taught me how to make these and they are truly delicious, wet, tasty and totally satisfying. We will be sharing a couple more incredible experiences with you over the next couple of weeks.

We are happy to be home and we thank you all for your continued viewing and commentary. Happy New Year to you all!

Ingredients (feeds 2 Svendblads or 3 servings)

  • 6 eggs
  • 2 medium tomatoes, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter, unsalted (coconut oil perfectly acceptable)
  • 1/2  bunch of scallions, finely chopped
  • Sea salt to taste

Here’s how to prepare this delicious dish:

Heat a skillet (non-stick if you have it ) with butter or coconut oil over medium heat. Add peeled tomatoes and scallions and cook about 5  - 7 minutes until 1/2 cooked. Pour the eggs in the skillet with the tomato mixture and cook over medium heat, without stirring, until mixture begins to set; then fold eggs over to ensure that they do not burn. …continue to misx until the eggs mix with the tomato and scallions and cook about 2 minutes or until the eggs are the consistency you like.

We serve ours with bacon of course and some avocado.  Looking for your feedback as ever. Jo

    • 1/4 cup of sweet potato flour
    • 2 lbs of calf liver
    • little sea salt

    Place all liver filets on a board, on paper towels, dry all liver filets on paper towels; Salt and pepper on one side.  Prepare new sheet with sweet potato flour lightly sprinkled with sea salt.

    Heat pan non stick pan with coconut oil, on medium – 3/4 high.

    Place liver into sweet potato flour and coat perfectly …. shake off extra…

    Heat pan with coconut oil and place into pan on medium -3/4 high. (important and according  to our stove..please pay close attention..only needs to cook 1 -2 minutes a side…TOPS!!!

    Your liver after its dried and salted and peppered on one side, dab into sweet potato flour, dab on each side t; o remove excess.

    Place into medium-hot coconut oil 1 – 2 mins on one side, 30 seconds on the second since and serve.

    Patacones

    12/12/2011 3 Comments

    My brother Marc asked us to finally post this for him.  So babe, here it is: Colombian Patacones for you! My husband and mom in law taught me how to make these amazing treats. You should have these like most carbs after your workouts, don’t forget.

    spacer

    Fabulous Ingredients Required:

    • 2 Large green/unripe Plantains
    • Sea Salt, to taste
    • Water
    • 1/4 cup coconut oil

    Here is how you make these great companions for your food:

    • Peel and cut the plantains  into 3/4 inch long slices.
    • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
    • Douse Plantains with Coconut Oil and place into oven for about 10-15 minutes turning over as needed.
    • Remove Plantains from oven before completely cooked and use two cutting boards to smash them into a thinner “patacon”.  These should now be about 1/4 the size you started with.
    • Splash with some water, sprinkle sea salt, and brush with some more Coconut Oil.
    • Place back into oven.  Cook for another 10-15 minutes turning to make sure they are nicely browned on each side.
    These are so incredibly delicious and healthier then the Colombian twice fried traditional; you will love them.  These are amazing with guacamole, cuban style dinner, or anything else that you love!
    Enjoy Jo & Henry

    Coconut Flour Pie Crust for Pumpkin Pie

    11/08/2011 11 Comments

    This is the same pumpkin pie filling as the Perfect Paleo Pumpkin Pie from last year. We have one small modification to the last year’s pie…We only go to a little over 1/4 cup of sweetener instead of 1/2 cup. We’ve made the change on the original recipe page. 

    spacer

    Here are the ingredients for the super easy pie crust. 

    Add all ingredients together and blend well with a hand mixer, line a deep 9 inch pie pan, like the one I am using and line equally thick throughout.

    Pour the PERFECT PALEO PUMPKIN PIE FILLING into pie pan and bake on 350 for about 50 minutes, cool and enjoy!

    Spicy Macadamia Nut Okra

    10/26/2011 6 Comments

    spacer

    Okra is one of our most favorite vegetables to cook. Tonight I thought that I would try a different rendition to go with our perfectly cooked King Salmon. Check out a few of our other Okra recipes under Veggies and Sides.

    This dish calls for 4 cups of Okra. Simply chop off the tops and soak in 1/2 water 1/2 coconut vinegar solution for 20 minutes.  Strain well and rinse well.

    Prepare a wok on high heat adding:

    After the bacon has rendered a bit, add the next ingredients below.

    Continue to cook for about another 7 minutes uncovered, stirring often. Then cover and reduce heat to medium, and allow to simmer for 15 minutes – you may want to taste to see if the Okra has been cooked to your liking. You may need 20 minutes total depending on your stove an pot.
    This dish rocks, it simple and an easy companion to fish and other dishes! Looking forward to your feedback. Jo
