For those who’re looking for some great healthy recipes, here’s a list of 10 from Health Habits. The recipes themselves were created by The Healthy Irishman. If you’re not familiar with the Healthy Irishman who’s real name is Gavan Murphy–a chef/caterer in Los Angeles, here’s a testimonial that he’s received from Cindy Crawford: (yeah, that’s right, the supermodel, Cindy Crawford!)
It is with pleasure that I am recommending Gavan Murphy as a chef and caterer. From May to August 2004, Gavan was hired to prepare daily, nutritional meals that were in keeping with a specific health and fitness program. The food was fresh and delicious, and there was always variety in the menu.
During the same period, I hired Gavan to cook for private parties and was very satisfied. Since then, I’ve recommended his services to several of my friends and wouldn’t hesitate to continue doing so.
Sincerely,
Cindy Crawford
Okay, if he’s good enough for Cindy Crawford, these recipes should be just fine for me… Follow the link to view the full recipe.
1. Chiturken Meatball Boats
“I had a couple of reasons for doing this recipe. First off, 4th of July is next weekend and I always like to do some seasonal bbq food around this time. Secondly, and probably more importantly, I had this ginormous zucchini (courgette) growing in my garden that I needed to do something with before some little people decided to move into it.”
2. Sesame Crusted Turkey & Spinach Salad
“I made this recipe with a two friends in mind. One’s a Paleo-head (guess who?) and the other a young father with another on the way who’s trying his hand at this healthy cooking stuff. There’s not a whole lot the latter guy eats that doesn’t resemble meat and potatoes but lucky for me he just so happens the likes raw spinach.”
3. Paleo Pulled Pork Wrap
“With summer on it’s way today’s recipe is a meat eaters delight. Your illustrious author here on HH, Douglaise Roberto asked me a while ago if I could come up with a healthy barbecue sauce with bbq season on it’s way.”
4. Paleo ‘Fried’ Chicken ‘n’ Strawberry Salad
“Who doesn’t like fried chicken? How about a gluten free healthy version that tastes amazing without all the unnecessary fat and calories. This is my version that, if I do say so myself, hits the spot.”
5. Grilled Cumin Lamb Kabobs
“Why is it that I like cumin so much? I don’t have many memories of eating it growing up (apart of learning how to use it at Ballymaloe). So what is it that attracts me to its peppery nutty flavour? It’s really just down to how good it makes food taste.”
