I made granola for the first time, And if I do say so myself, it is absolutely amazing! Truth be told, it is a keto granola. But I think anyone would enjoy it. It is both crunchy and chewy at the same time. Go figure! It is loaded with collagen, vitamin C, protein, and chocolate.
Today we are going to do a Chicken Parmesan that is scrumptious and super easy.
I used only two chicken breasts which is enough to last me for three meals. You could easily double the recipe. Here are the ingredients as I used them:

On WEDNESDAY February 26 at 7:30 pm EST, we’ll welcome Jill Escher to the show. Jill is the author of Farewell, Club Perma-Chub: A Sugar Addict’s Guide to Easy Weight Loss and founder of www.endsugaraddiction.com. The recipe below is one of Jill’s favorite breakfast recipes! This breakfast may seem unusual at first, but it is super nutritious and delicious, costs next to nothing, and takes only minutes to make.
Chop 3-5 fresh organic veggies of your preference into rather small pieces. Veggies can include, for example, broccoli, carrots, jicama, radishes, celery, kale, red or green cabbage. It’s easiest to do this just twice a week, storing your chopped veggie mix in a container in the fridge.
Add fats, either organic olive oil or organic avocado oil, maybe some chopped organic avocado, plus some balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle salt to taste. Mix it all up. Add organic sunflower seeds or chopped organic almonds or organic macadamia nuts if desired.
Top it with a dollop of chopped organic chicken liver and/or organic eggs and/or leftover organic, grassfed meat from last night’s dinner.
But you ask, how does Jill make chopped liver in the first place? Here’s her favorite way, and it’s super easy:
Place one pound of fresh, organic chicken livers on a baking tray. Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes or until well browned, flipping them halfway. Take a large onion and sautee it in a big dollop of rendered duck fat (available at US Wellness Meats, Whole Foods and other finer grocery stores) til translucent, almost browning. Add the baked livers, a dash of balsamic vinegar, some salt, and if you like, an organic hardboiled egg or two. Then place the whole shebang in a food processor til it looks like, you know, chopped liver. Yum!
What a way to start your day, all the nutrition your body could need, a treat for the digestion, and zero blood sugar spike. You will never, ever dream of cereal, waffles, pancakes, donuts, bagels, muffins or toast again.

2 -4 cloves garlic
¼ cup apple cider or white vinegar

3. Place peppers, tomatoes, garlic, and a teaspoon of salt into a food processor.
4. Blend in the food processor for 20-30 seconds, depending upon desired consistency.
5. Taste the sauce, and if necessary, add more salt (pulse-mix a few times to stir in any added salt).

Tuna salad is a favorite food of many of my patients that are in treatment for eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and bulimarexia. It’s easy to make, scrumptious, and full of protein! To avoid some of the not-so-healthy ingredients in store-bought mayo, I make my own. It’s so simple to make. Homemade mayo is mouthwatering and delicious; it beats the taste of store-bought mayo any day! My tuna salad recipe has become a favorite among family, friends, and patients. Organic, pasture-raised, chicken can also be substituted for the tuna to create an amazing chicken salad!
What kind of canned tuna is healthiest? According to Dr. Cate Shanahan, it is best to buy tuna that is in olive oil, rather than water. Olive oil preserves the essential omega-3 fats better than water. However, if it’s packed in another oil (such as canola, sunflower or cottonseed oil), Shanahan recommends opting for water-packed tuna. Canola, sunflower, and cottonseed oils tend to oxidize during processing. Not good news for your heart!
Tuna Salad
1-2 cans of wild-caught tuna, drained and flaked with fork (or cooked and cooled organic chicken, cubed) chopped onion (to taste) chopped celery (to taste) 4 egg whites (sauteed in olive oil and chopped) – save the egg yolks for homemade mayo homemade mayonnaise (recipe follows below) raisins or grapes (to taste)
Combine all ingredients. Serve on top of lettuce leaves, with a side of organic tomato slices and dill pickles.
Coconut Oil Mayonnaise
4 egg yolks + 1 whole egg 1/4 tsp ground sea salt 1/4 tsp garlic salt juice from 1/2 lemon 1/4-1/2 c white wine vinegar – (Coconut Secrets Vinegar) 2/3-1 c coconut oil
In food processor, very slowly process egg yolks and whole egg. With processor still running, slowly add in sea salt, garlic salt, lemon juice, and vinegar ingredients until completely mixed. Test for degree of saltiness and salt to taste. With processor running, add coconut oil and continue processing until blended completely.

Okay! My family voted my baby back spareribs the most delicious they have ever tasted. No kidding! If you haven’t had this sort of success there are a few things you might want to try.
First, did you know that there is a membrane on the back of your baby back pork ribs? There is! You have to remove it if you want really juicy tender ribs! To remove the membrane, separate it at the short end and then grab it with a paper towel. It usually pulls right off!
The other thing you have to do it marinate the ribs for at least three hours. You can also use this as a mopping sauce as well if you are doing your reds on a grill! The marinade is simple:
Baby Back Port Ribs Marinade
1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar (the benefits of coconut palm sugar) 1/2 cup Worcester sauce 1 tsp garlic pepper 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp bourbon smoked paprika 1 tsp mustard 1 tsp chili powder
After they have marinated for 3 to 4 hours you can bake them covered loosely with aluminum foil for about an hour at 350 degrees. Either make your own barbecue sauce or use your favorite barbecue sauce. Wrap them in heavy duty aluminum foil two hours before dinner. Cook them in the oven over very low heat or place them in a smoker on the grill on low heat. Remove them from the aluminum foil. Baste with your favorite barbecue sauce until they just turn dark; or stick them under the broiler for half an hour.
Enjoy the most mouthwatering, tender ribs you have ever tasted!
