no pasta

I was inspired by the way noodles and dumplings are pan fried in Asian cuisine – that crispy texture is to die for! 

Crispy Coconut Orzo with Peas

light coconut milk

water

2inch piece of ginger, sliced

salt

orzo pasta

olive oil

scallions (sliced thin (about ½ cup))

peas (thawed)

lemon juice

This recipe originated on an episode of Giada Entertains. Episode: Jade’s After Party.

To a medium saucepan add the coconut milks, water, ginger and salt. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Add the orzo and stir. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes or until the pasta is al dente, stirring to prevent sticking. Drain well. Remove and discard the ginger.

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and heat another minute. Add the drained orzo and spread out evenly in the pan. Cook undisturbed for about 4 minutes or until the bottom of the pasta is getting browned and crispy. Flip the pasta, add the remaining oil and continue to cook an additional 4 minutes undisturbed to brown the other side. Flip again and brown another 3 minutes. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir in the scallions and peas. Cook another 2 minutes to warm through. Finish with the lemon juice. Serve warm.

Awesome Paleo Lasagna Recipe

lb grass-fed ground beef

onion (chopped small)

San Marzano peeled tomatoes and sauce

tomato sauce

tomato paste

mushrooms

spinach (thawed)

zucchini

cashews

almond milk

garlic pressed

basil

thyme

oregano

tsp black pepper

parsley leaves

red pepper flakes

tsp salt

onion

tsp dried garlic

Day before: Soak cashews in water (no need to refrigerate)

In a large pot, add 2 tsp of olive oil and sauté onion and garlic over medium heat, or until onions are tender

Add Italian sausage and beef in pot, cook until meat is browned

Drain fat

Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato paste

Add remaining lasagna sauce spices

Allow sauce to simmer in pot while continuing below (best if simmered 30 mins to 1 hour)

In a frying pan with a little olive oil, sauté mushrooms (with any kind of seasonings or parsley if you like)

Set sautéed mushrooms aside

Place thawed spinach in bowl, squeeze as much water out of it as possible

Set spinach aside

Drain water from the soaking cashews, and pour cashews into a food processor

Add almond milk and spices to the food processor

Pulse or blend until cashews become a smooth and creamy consistency (something like ricotta cheese)

Add 2 cups of the cashew "cheese" into the bowl with spinach and blend together

Preheat oven to 350º F

Slice zucchini lengthwise, (first trim two opposite sides so it doesn&#039;t roll around on the board) Slice noodles about 1/4-inch thick (works by hand with a knife) don&#039;t worry about them all being the exact same thickness

Get out a 9&quot; x 12&quot; baking dish

Smooth a little bit of the lasagna sauce along the bottom of the pan

Place one layer of zucchini noodles lengthwise across the bottom of the pan

Add about half of cashew cheese and spinach mixture along the top of the zucchini noodles layer

On top of that, add half of the pan of sautéed mushrooms

Top with lasagna sauce enough to cover the top (don't skimp, there'll be plenty)

Repeat the above steps with a second layer of zucchini noodles, cashew cheese and spinach, and again with the sautéed mushrooms and lasanga sauce

Now bake uncovered for about 50-60 minutes (or until it starts to bubble around the edges)

Remove from oven, let stand a few minutes, slice and serve
