Paleo Bun for ONE!


This simple bun is a great simple base. I have used it with a burger, and in a breakfast biscuit.
There are variations, and add ins to suit your needs.
In the first attempt I used grass bed butter for a burger bun with chia seeds. For my breakfast biscuit I used walnut oil for a more fluffy crumbly texture.

Paleo Bun For One
1 Egg or 3 TBS Egg Whites
1 TBS Almond Flour
1 TBS Coconut Flour
1 TBS Coconut Oil (or melted grass fed butter, or walnut oil)
1/4 TSP Baking Powder
 Pinch of Himalayan Salt

Add ins: Chia, spices, seeds to compliment your protein.

Mix, let sit to thicken (mine always thickens in Colorado right away!) Scoop and form into two buns. Bake on oiled parchment paper @ 350 for 10 to 12 minutes until a nice golden brown, High altitude for me was 12 minutes.

 In this burger I used butter, and chia seeds.

An Oopsie bread lunch idea.

Image
I have some Oopsie bread left over and I wanted to keep it light today. I also am still running on this low-no and Paleo inspired cooking spree (Oopsie bread goes in the low carb category). So for this lunch inspiration I grabbed a little of every thing from the pantry. Now if you are seriously thinking going Paleo you want every thing to be organic/free range/grass fed. I have to clear out my pantry first before I go shopping again I don't like to waste food. Ask my husband about that, he has to eat all the left overs for his work lunches. Also Fridays will be leftover day, or Sunday afternoon. those tend to be the days I just need a rest!  Myself I have a strange aversion to eating leftovers. Although I know I cooked it, and I enjoyed it (first time around), I just can't do it. My Mum is that way too, strange thing to pass along. 

Oopsie Bread (or for Paleo: Almond) Lunch

1 small can Light tuna, Salmon would be nice.

Jalapeno peppers or green chillies  (or both), as much as you can handle.

Olives (any kind), as many as you want.

Juice from lemon or lime if you are doing the full can  of tuna about 1 Tablespoon

Fresh Cilantro, chopped about 1 Tablespoon

Avocado, 1/2
Combine all ingredients except avocado, and cilantro. 

ImageI smashed my avocado separately because I wanted it more on the chunky side.

Gently mix in you avocado.

Then add your fresh cilantro (yay to my indoor herb garden!)

This was wonderful on Oopsie Bread (try it!), and I can't wait to try it on Almond  Bread.
