Creamed Turkey & Peas Over Biscuits

Here's another quick and easy 1 dish meal.  The biscuits mix up super quick and the sauce can be made while the biscuits bake.  My whole family liked this, but a couple thought it was too spicy.  Feel free to omit the cayenne or add at the table for those who like a bit more kick. This would be great with chicken also, but I had turkey on hand today.  Here's how to make it in 30 minutes!

Preheat oven to 400.
Mix up a batch of Cassidy's buttermilk biscuits (I use arrowroot powder and make buttermilk from coconut milk.)  Bake for 17 minutes.
While these are baking, make this:

Creamed Turkey & Peas
5 Tbsp butter
1/3 cup tapioca flour
1 Tbsp dried minced onion
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp dried parsley
dash cayenne pepper
4 cups non-dairy milk (I used coconut-almond milk)
2 cups frozen peas
4 cups cooked, chopped turkey

In a large skillet, melt the butter.  Whisk in tapioca flour, onion, salt, peppers, parsley and Worcestershire sauce.  Slowly add the milk.  Cook until thick & bubbly.  Fold in peas and turkey.  Cook until heated through.

By now the biscuits should be done.  Crumble a biscuit in a shallow bowl and top with sauce.  Or pour sauce in bowls and put biscuits on top.  Enjoy!


 

Fluffy Coconut Flour Waffles

We really like Brittany Angell's crispy paleo waffles, but decided to try her fluffy coconut flour waffle recipe.  These were really good, too!  I cut back on the sweetener and used coconut sugar.  Since it is Christmas break, we decided to drizzle them with melted chocolate chips and top them with strawberries.

 

Simple Balsamic Vinaigrette

With all the rich food during the holidays, I really long for simple things.  Here is a quick, easy, satisfying salad dressing that can be made in less than 5 minutes.

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1-2 Tbsp honey
2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
3/4 cup olive oil

Combine all ingredients except the olive oil in a blender or Vitamix.  Slowly add oil through the lid until emulsified.  Serve with any greens or veggies.
