Today's segment is nice and easy. A lot of you males are living on steamed vegetables/salad and meat and today is to provide you a little kick to get a bit more out of your meals without adding the unnecessary fats. Also the general rule is to stay away from creamy dressings but today's will keep you in good stead without adding to the waistline. Welcome to 'Vaughn's Kitchen: Is it even Paleo?'. I stole both these ideas, 1 from my mum and 1 from Jamie Oliver, that kid's a genius.
Mum's Neverfail Marinade:
Olive oil
Soy Sauce
Garlic crushed or diced
Directions:
1. Add ingredients in a bowl.
2. Mix meat through the marinade and cook straight away or let sit for up to 24 hours.
3. BOOM! Always tender steak, not even kidding. (Check out those guns!)
Jamie's easy creamy:
3 Heaped tbsp of Natural Yoghurt (I used natural cow or some brand, tastes awesome from woolies).
2 tsp of Dijon or Hot english mustard (I used Dijon, but if you don't mind a good kick in the teeth try the hot english, goes just as well with more spice).
3/4 - 1 whole lemon juiced depending how juicy
A handful of soft herbs diced, I used chives but you can throw in coriander, dill, parsley or crushed fennel seeds.
Salt and Pepper (optional) -----> There's no mucking around with knives children, 'serious face on'.
Directions:
1. Mix yoghurt and mustard to combined.
2. Add lemon juice and stir through. (at this point I added a little more yoghurt to get the flavour and consistency right, don't be afraid to play around with the ingredients.
3. Mix through the herbs and salt and pepper. Serve over salad.
4. BOOM! Creamy, delicious and healthy salad dressing or can be served over cold meats at the Christmas table...just saying.
The salad had Grated Beetroot, Cos Lettuce, Baby Spinach, tomato, capsicum and cucumber in it.
Next week we have a guest chef and will be covering a snack idea or two for those people on the move. See you soon and eat well.
