My friends came over to hang out and one had my saltless paleo meal. She really really really like it. B/c I seasoned things well with garlic & marjoram . . .and my beef brisket was bangin!
Breakfast: banana muffin, 4 strips of bacon, coconut milk blend
Lunch: worked through lunch, warmed up my lunch but never made it around to eating it.
Dinner: 1 cup of raw spinach, beef brisket, paleo bbq sauce, sauteed bok choy with mushrooms, 1/2 cup of tom kha soup (thai coconut soup)
Snack: nuts & raisains (handful of walnuts & handful of pecans & handful of raisins) This mixture made about 1 cup.
2 cans of coconut milk
2 cups of chicken broth
1 stalk of lemon grass
1 teaspoon of dried cilantro
2-3 dashes of dried ginger
1 cup of sliced mushrooms
3 stalks of diced green onion
(optional: dash of garlic powder/toasted onion powder/sea salt, pepper-personally I think garlic overpowers the lemon grass)
Bring the coconut milk & chicken broth to slight boil turn down to low-medium heat. Clean and crush you stalk of lemon grass, cut it into pieces and place in the bubbling liquid. Add all of your seasonings: cilantro, ginger, garlic power, toasted onion power, a dash of sea salt if you choose). Let cook for 20 minutes uncovered. Add mushrooms & green onions. Let cook another 10 minutes. Tomorrow for dinner, I'll throw in some shrimp while I warm it.
It is tasty soup, but not as tasty as the restaurant versions I've had. Here is the original recipe, of course mine is paleo friendly--no fish sauce or soy sauce. Also, I don't add the chicken, b/c I don't like it:
