Greek Nachos

Recipe via Camille.

Ingredients:
Pita Chips
Feta Cheese
Diced Tomatoes
Diced Cucumbers
Diced Marinated Artichoke Hearts
Sliced Olives
Your Favorite Hummus
Cooked, shredded chicken (I've been cooking a batch in my crock pot in chicken broth, placing in the kitchen aide, mixing for 20 seconds, and I get perfectly shredded chicken. I think freeze in small bags and pull out when needed, that made this recipe super easy!)

Place chips on a plate. Get the hummus and dilute it. (We used two parts hummus to one part water.)

Sprinkle the hummus "sauce" over the chips. Sprinkle diced tomatoes, olives, artichokes, and cucumbers, and mix a little for variety of colors and flavors. Then add feta and chicken and enjoy!

Chicken Coconut Curry

• Recipe via Camille. 
• 
  
• Ingredients:
• 
  
• About 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
• 2-1/4 teaspoons vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1/4 onion, thinly sliced
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions:

In a medium saucepan heat oil and curry powder, mix together to make a curry paste.  After a few minutes of heating add garlic and onions and saute.  The onion should be clear after about 5-8 minutes- that's when you know it's ready.  

Add the chicken to the pan and stir well to coat with curry oil.  Cook until no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.  

Pour in the can of coconut milk, tomatoes, and tomato sauce.  Add the sugar and stir together.  

Simmer on your stove on low for about 30-45 minutes, stir about every 5-10 minutes.  

Serve over rice.  

Acai Bowl

Recipe from Camille here.

2 Frozen Acai Packs (found in freezer section of health food stores- I got mine at Sprouts)
3 Bananas
Strawberries
Blueberries
Frozen Cherries (optional)
Granola/Cereal with Granola base
Honey

Step 1: Chop up your toppings. The rest goes fast, so you'll want these babies ready to go. As a side note, traditional bowls use bananas, strawberries, and blueberries, but you can definitely mix up your toppings! Try raspberries and nuts, dried coconut/mango/pineapple, cherries, etc. for different flavors. But if you're a newbie, I'd try these guys first.

Step 2: Grab the acai puree packs, and run them under warm water for a minute just so they are lose enough to come out. Cut off the tops so you can easily remove from packaging. And also note, you'll need one pack per bowl, so you can easily scale this recipe up or down.

Step 3: In your blender toss in 2 bananas, 2 acai packs, and if you opt for some frozen fruit, that too. Just go light on the frozen fruit, it can change the texture you're after. We did about 2/3rds cup of frozen cherries. Many of the stores you can buy these at also have options to add some nut butter or protein powder too. Feel free to do so if you want some protein in the mix! You could definitely just go with bananas and acai too.

Step 4: Blend it all up. You may need to mix around with a spoon, the mixture will be thick.

Step 5: Pour into bowls. Mixture will be thick. 

Step 6: Add your sliced fruit to the top of the acai. Nothing special, just place it right on top.

Step 7: Add your granola/cereal to the top. 

Step 8 (optional): Sprinkle cereal/granola on top of the fruit, and drizzle with a little honey for added sweetness.
