Freakin Amazing Grain-Free Pasta Alfredo with Paleo, GAPS, SCD Options!!

Get ready for this!! Jeremy said that this tasted just like alfredo!!!  It is very low fat and tastes amazing!! I use a 100% buckwheat noodle. It is used in many Japanese dishes. Buckwheat is actually not a grain, it is a seed and has a low glycemic index and it is high in protein! I buy mine at Whole Foods but you can also *Prime it* from Amazon. Oh how I love Amazon.....

Prep time: 30min
Cook time: 8min for the noodles
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1 Large Head of Cauliflower (Bring water to boil and then boil cauliflower for 15min and strain)
1 Ripe Avocado
3/4C Hot Water
4oz Aged Cheddar Cheese
3T Butter
3T Plain Yogurt
1T Herbs de Province
1t Garlic Salt
1/2t Black Pepper
16oz Eden Selected Buckwheat Soba (If you get any other brand, watch out!! Because many are not 100% buckwheat. They throw in wheat flour into the mix!!)

Instructions:
Cook cauliflower as stated above and place all above ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth. This is super delicious! Get ready!!

Boil water and cook 16oz 100% Buckwheat Soba for 8min. Strain and then mix with your alfredo. Then serve. I also put in red bell peppers and peas and topped with fresh cracked pepper for grins. It was delicious!! Enjoy!!

For a strict PALEO version of the alfredo, visit this site and substitute Cashew Cream for the heavy cream. You can also do spaghetti squash instead of Soba if you are limited in that respect for GAPS, SCD.

Paleo Tortillas

         

Prep time: 5min

Cook time: 10min

Yields: 7 five-inch tortillas or 3 eight-inch tortillas

Ingredients:
6 Egg Whites

3.5T Coconut Flour 

4T Liquid (Yogurt/Almond Milk/Coconut Milk) 

1/2t Salt

Instructions: 

Mix all of the tortilla ingredients in a small bowl with a whisk. Heat your skillet and fry them up with olive oil/coconut oil/butter/ghee! I did one at a time with 1/8C of batter and poured it on the pan and immediately started gyrating the pan to thin out the tortilla.  Cook on the first side for 45-60 sec and then the other side for 30-45 sec. Flip carefully. I perfected the flip by tortilla #3 or so... LOL.  

If you want to spice things up, add to the batter 1/4t Chili powder, 1/4t Cumin, 1/8t Chipotle Powder and 1/4t garlic salt for Mexican Enchiladas or Tacos. You can also fry them for longer and add 1/2C Grated Cheddar Cheese to the batter to make crunchy tostadas!!

For crepes, you can add to the batter a squeeze of Honey and 1/2t Cinnamon. Spoon your fruit in and top with whipped coconut cream!!  

The possibilities are endless!! Enjoy!
