hey everyone and welcome it back into my channel and welcome to a new video don't
forget to subscribe if you haven't already and let's go ahead and make some
delicious at comfort food so we're starting off with pancakes because I
think that is the most perfect comfort food breakfast so I'm using an egg here
you can use the flax egg if you like but I love eggs because they're full of all
the essential amino acids their source of protein and they just taste really
good and next up I'm using some coconut milk you want to use the canned coconut
milk and only the thick part - just make sure you do that half of a banana that I
mashed up for a little bit of sweetness as well as some apple cider vinegar
which is great for digestion balancing your cholesterol some vanilla which we
know it has some potent antioxidants and then we are just going to whisk all of
the wet ingredients together until you get like a nice smooth batter this is
important because you don't want like chunks of banana you just want make sure
everything is nice and smooth so that your pancake batter is nice and even and
then I'm gonna be adding in some coconut flour you can try and sub with some
almond flour um you're only using a tablespoon or a couple tablespoons
rather so it's not that much but coconut flour is high in protein and fiber and
makes these grain free and paleo some cinnamon which balances your blood sugar
which is also why I put it in my coffee as well as some baking powder which is
just gonna help keep them fluffy and rise a little bit and I like this one no
no this is the one I've used since I was like a little kid I feel like my mom
always had this one of course taking my Star Wars spatula and then just mixing
up our pancake batter and what I love about this is that you can easily make
them and then you keep them in the freezer and then just pop them in the
toaster the morning up so you can even make them on the weekend and have them
during the week then I'm taking these enjoy life with chocolate chips and I'm
putting a few of those on top after I've cooked them as well as some sliced
banana which is high in potassium it helps boost your bone health and keeps
you regular and those are our banana chocolate chip pancakes I love them you
can make a batch of these and then eat them all week long and they're the
perfect comfort food lots of healthy fats but they're paleo gluten free and
dairy free next up another comfort food you have to
have is pizza and I have nailed this like paleo paleo pizza guys so I'm
starting off with cassava which is also called yucca root or you go root I find
this in like my grocery store I've seen it since I was little so if you look or
you ask I'm sure you can find it and I've seen this like even when I was in
France and it's a lot stickier than a potato so you kind of just boil it then
it like a you would a potato and then mash it up and then I'm putting it in a
blender with some olive oil you might be able to sub the yucca root or the Casa
buffer potato I haven't tried that but you can try and then putting in the
olive oil full of nice healthy fats a dash of Himalayan salt which has 84
essential minerals in it and also helps balance the pH in your body once again
some coconut flour we're not using much here so you can probably just sub in a
different kind of flour it just kind of helps everything to bind it once again
high in protein high in fiber and some baking powder which is just gonna help
give it like the crust rise a little bit and keep it nice and fluffy
once I blend that up you're gonna have a sticky dough like this so I'm putting it
on a sheet of parchment paper just so that I can spread it out another way you
can do this is you can put another sheet of parchment paper on the top and then
use a rolling pin but I'm just using my hands and as you can see the dough
spreads quite easily bead you want to make sure you put a little bit of olive
oil on the bottom so that it doesn't stick because it's not like a normal
type of dough you don't want to make sure it sticks and then I'm going to
bake that off before we top it for 10 minutes once it's done I'm going to put
on some tomato sauce you can also do pesto I think that would taste really
good and the reason is broken is because like you know when the dough Rises and
it gets like those bubbles that's what happens so you can prick it with a fork
to stop this if you didn't forget like I did so just pick it with a fork to stop
the bubbles from happening but this crust turned out honestly it's so good
and then I'm also putting on some cashew ricotta I have made my own before and
I'm gonna leave that down in the description box I'm in that video I also
made a paleo lasagna with like a zucchini noodles with this homemade
cashew ricotta but this is just one that I got at the farmers market just to kind
of save a little bit of time and it was really
but you can totally make your own and I make my recipe all the time it's really
good honestly my family in France who eats a cheese all the time and do not
like miss cheese at all so that's how good it is and then I'm topping it with
a little bit of basil after it comes out of the oven you want to make sure you do
the basil afterwards because you don't want the basil to like wilt and get kind
of gross and basil is great because it helps with digestion and also improves
your immune system and that is it you can put whatever kind of toppings you
like but I'm one of those people who likes a really basic pizza but this is
paleo it's grain free the crust is really easy to make compared to other
gluten free paleo and so and it's delicious next up we're making these
almond butter drunken noodles I love Thai food and one of my favorite things
for these drunken noodles so I thought I would try to make my own kind of
healthier sauce so I'm starting off with a little bit of almond butter and I
prefer almond butter to peanut butter because it's lower in the glycemic index
and also with peanut butter it has a lot of fun aflatoxins
and mold when they grow so you have to be careful not to consume too much
peanut butter some broth which I like it adds a little protein as well as some
coconut aminos which is better for you than soy sauce so I kind of just use it
in place where I would use soy a little bit of apple cider vinegar as well as a
little bit of maple syrup which boosts your immune system and also gives it a
little bit of sweetness to kind of balance out the almond butter and the
coconut aminos I'm gonna whisk that over a medium heat until you kind of get like
a smooth sauce it comes together really easy and really quickly so if you're
like a fan of like Thai food or peanut sauces I know you're gonna love this one
and then for the pasta I'm actually using these new pasta low calorie pasta
noodles they're made with konjac root and it's only 25 calories me not that I
count calories but I love that these are lower in carbs because all the carb
comes from fiber so it's no net carbs so you literally just rinse them their
precooked and then you heat them up and add them to whatever you like I really
really like them you couldn't just Google better than noodles or konjac
noodles so they're two like brands and noodles that I like just add them to the
sauce and then kind of mix it up I really like them I know my friends
really like these noodles as well and I find they taste a lot better than those
like if you've seen those tofu shirataki noodles they seems a lot better than
those those are zero calories these are like 25 they taste really good
or even if you want to do 50 50 I think that would be a good with
like normal pasta I'm topping it with some slivered almonds just had a little
bit crunch and a little bit of parsley to make it pretty but those are like
some super quick drunken noodles it's like warm it's pasta it's comforting
it's amazing and it tastes really good so I hope you guys enjoyed this video
