KETO BLT~SUMMER FOOD!

BE BRAVE,  ADD SOME FRESH DILL

"Summer was our best season: it was sleeping on the back screened porch in cots,
or trying to sleep in the tree house; summer was everything good to eat;it was a thousand
colors in a parched landscape;

but most of all, summer was DILL."

-Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird. 

Endless uses for Kale! Summer salads are just the beginning...

Crisp Apple Kale and Quinoa Salad

Toss with  fresh lemon, feta, olive oil, oregano, honey and a bit of  fresh mint leaves....so refreshing!!

Sorrelishious! ok, not a word...

Its sour taste comes from oxalic acid, which also gives rhubarb its tartness. ... Personally, I like sorrel's tangy taste in salads.

Sorrel is a small edible green plant from the Polygonaceae family, which also includes buckwheat and rhubarb. The French translation of sour (“sorrel”) is spot-on: These leaves have an intense lemony tang. In Vietnamese cuisine, sorrel leaves are known as rau thom (fresh herb), and it's called gowkemeat in Scotland. 

Uses:   Sorrel is used for reducing sudden and ongoing pain and swelling (inflammation) of the nasal passages and respiratory tract, for treating bacterial infections along with conventional medicines, and for increasing urine flow (as a diuretic).

Sweet Potato Hash

Sweet potatoes, chicken breakfast sausage, pecans....Drizzle with  maple syrup to serve!
