About this ebook

Creamy Chicken Zucchini Fettuccine
Ingredients
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1⁄2 tsp Himalayan or fine sea salt
• 1⁄2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 1 large head (600g) cauliflower, roughly chopped
• 2 cups chicken stock
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
•2 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
• the juice of 1/2 lime
• 1 tsp capers
• 225g mushrooms, sliced
• 450g leftover cooked chicken, chopped (I used grilled chicken)
• 1⁄4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (to garnish)
• 2-3 large zucchinis, peeled and julienned
Instructions
1. Peel the zucchini (or not, I peeled mine just for the look and munched on the peels while I was cooking) and cut them into wide julienne strips with a mandolin. Set aside. (I used the wider setting of my mandolin to create Fettuccine-like “noodles”, but you could also do finer noodles with the thinner setting or you could also use a vegetable spiralizer.)
2. Add onion, garlic, salt and pepper to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat for one or two minutes, until fragrant and slightly softened.
3. Throw the cauliflower in and continue cooking for a minute or two.
4. Add chicken stock, cover and bring to the boil; lower heat and continue cooking until the cauliflower is tender, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, cook the mushrooms in a large skillet until nice and golden. Add chicken and continue cooking until heated through; Reserve.
6. Ladle the cauliflower mixture into your blender; add Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, balsamic vinegar and lime juice and process on high speed until super smooth and silky in consistency. Throw in capers and pulse 2-3 times just to mix them in and break them down a little. Pour that cauliflower mixture over the reserved chicken and mushrooms and bring to a simmer over low-medium heat.
7. Divide the julienned zucchini between serving plates and ladle the chicken sauce on top.
8. The heat from the sauce alone will soften the zucchini some, but it you want your "pasta" to be even softer still, you can also add the zucchini to the pan, stir until well coated and cook over low heat for a minute or two.
9. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

    CHAPTER 1- WHAT IS PALEO DIET

    The Paleolithic diet is sometimes referred to as the Caveman's diet, or the Hunter-Gatherer diet, the Stone Age diet and the Warrior diet. These days though, more people simply refer to this eating regimen as the Paleo diet. This follows the dietetic restrictions of our prehistoric ancestors, particularly the hunter-gatherers of old. This diet relies heavily on fresh produce, while shying away from processed food items that have proven time and time again to be detrimental to one's health.

    It can be reasoned that, back in the Stone Age, health conditions like: cancer, diabetes, and tooth decay (among many others) were non-existent. People from that era, lived long lives and they certainly did not need to count calories in order to remain fit and healthy. It can also be reasoned that there were no documented accounts of overweight or obese populations from that era.

    In other words, this is a diet that helps promote good health by simply eating good food.

    Despite popular misconception, the Paleo diet is not a new fad at all. In fact, it is the basis of many modern day fad diets like: Atkins, baby food diet, cabbage soup diet, blood type diet, fruitarianism, Good Carbohydrate Revolution, high protein diet, liquid diet, morning banana diet, raw food diet, Scarsdale, South Beach, Sugar Busters, Zone diet, and the infamous Hollywood 48-Hour Miracle Diet (a.k.a. grapefruit diet.) However, unlike these aforementioned eating regimens, the Paleo diet does not encourage periodic starvation or the removal of solid food.

    The Paleo diet was first suggested to the world in 1975, by a doctor named Water L. Voegtlin. He was a gastroenterologist who argued that the Paleolithic humans were carnivorous in nature. They devoured meat, and supplemented their diets with starches from fruits, nuts, seeds and vegetables. He used this as a basis for his successful treatments of gastric conditions like: abdominal angina, bowel obstruction, colitis, Crohn's disease, dyspepsia, gastritis, GERD or gastro-esophageal reflux disease, indigestion, IBS or irritable bowel syndrome, peptic ulcer.

    The good doctor also noted that his patients experienced:

    • Gradual weight loss,

    • Have higher energy levels,

    • Have less acne and skin lesions,

    • More stable blood pressure, and

    • More stable blood sugar level, etc.

    The Paleo diet is quite versatile. It follows certain guidelines as to what you can or cannot eat. But you also have the liberty to change this eating plan to suit your own personal dietary restrictions. For example: you can remove nuts from this diet if you have peanut or nut-based allergies. You can remove shellfish or other seafood items if you have religious or cultural restrictions against these. You can make this diet vegetarian or strictly vegan.

    If you are new to this diet, you can follow this one simple guideline: if a caveman does not have access to it, it should not be included in your meals.
