Sharing one of my favorite fall comfort food dinners on Fed & Fit!
Thank you Cassy for letting me share one of my favorite fall recipes on Fed & Fit today! Although, I have never actually met Cassy in person, I feel like we would be instant friends. I mean she is hilarious, has the cutest, fluffy white dog (who would be best buds with my golden retriever), and loves to eat great food!
I found Cassy’s blog a while back and absolutely loved her joyful and fun approach to nutrition. When I first switched to a grain free diet due to my auto-immune disease, I kept seeing recipes for cauliflower everything, and must admit I have a huge fear of cauliflower. Well, the other day I finally made cauliflower rice and now have been craving it with everything. Thanks Cassy for one of the most simple cauliflower rice recipes on the internet, and I owe it to you for conquering my fear of this white vegetable!
So, lets talk about browned butter. Once you make this brown butter sauce, you will be wanting to drizzle it on everything. Browned butter transforms your kitchen into a magical place with the most dreamy aroma. Walking into a kitchen that smells good always makes me hungry, so this is a great dish to serve for guests or a basic weeknight dinner. This recipe is simple just keeping to the basics such as salt, butter, garlic and herbs but the combination of flavors is fantastic!
Grass-fed butter (this is my favorite!) is packed with important nutrients, vitamins and minerals. When introducing people to a real food diet, I love explaining the countless benefits of introducing healthy fats such as butter into your daily diet. And most importantly it adds irreplaceable flavor to your meal. If you cannot tolerate dairy, try substituting grass-fed ghee for this recipe!
This roasted chicken is simple to make and only requires a handful of ingredients, most of which I am sure you have on hand. It’s a great weekday meal or a meal to serve when you have guests over with a side salad or roasted vegetables. I threw the chicken in the oven, then moved onto making the cauliflower rice and dinner was on the table in about 40 minutes from start to finish. I served this meal with some parmesan cheese shavings as I do really well with raw or grass-fed cheeses, but left this ingredient optional for those who cannot tolerate dairy. I love aged Pecorino which is a salty, sharp Italian cheese made from sheep’s milk. It is a great cheese to garnish with especially for those who cannot tolerate cow’s milk cheeses.
Happy October and enjoy!!
