  • Chicken & Guacamole on Brown Rice Tortilla
    Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15 Minutes | Serves: 2

    I'm so glad we have gluten-free alternatives such as this brown rice tortilla from Trader Joe's. Because this tortilla should be kept in the fridge or freezer, it tends to get a little stiff. Before using, heat on the stove top for just a few minutes, or use the defrost function on your toaster oven.

    Ingredients
    • 1 Chicken Breast
    • 1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    • Juice of 1/2 a lemon
    • Pink Salt and Fresh-ground pepper to taste
    • 2 Brown Rice Tortillas
    • 10 Cherry or Sugar Plum Tomatoes, halved
    • 2 cups Baby Spring Mix

    • 1 Tbsp Simply Organic All-Purpose Seasoning
    • Pink Salt or Sea Salt and Pepper to taste

    1. Turn on broiler
    2. Arrange fillets in a oven-safe dish
    3. Season both sides of black cod fillets with salt, pepper, freshly grated garlic, olive oil, lemon juice and all-purpose seasoning. 
    4. Broil for 5-6 minutes on both sides
    5. While the fish is cooking, wash spinach and cut tomatoes

  • Very Garlicy Herb & Saffron Shrimp
    Cook Time: 7 minutes | Serves: 4

    Inspired by a Spanish tapa, I ventured to use my beloved saffron in something other than paella. The Italian seasoning mix complements the saffron without overpowering it.  I used spinach but feel free to experiment and throw in any other hardy green veggie for color, nutrition and texture! Keep in mind that the Italian Seasoning Mix I use already has garlic in it, so if you want a milder garlic flavor, omit or cut my generous serving of fresh garlic.

    Ingredients

    • 1 lb Wild Jumbo Shrimp (I used TJ's Wild Blue Shrimp)
    • 1/2 package Spicely Organics' Italian Seasoning Mix
    • Pinch high quality Saffron (1 package of Spicely Organic's Saffron)
    • 4 cloves Garlic, grated or pressed or minced
    • 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    • 5 oz. Baby Spinach
    • Sea Salt or Pink Salt to Taste
    Directions
