Meals Under 20 Min: Pesto Shrimp & Zucchini Pasta

If there's anything that can be created in less than 20 minutes, I'm in!  How about you?  I mean, most days I barely have time to get myself together let alone cook an extravagant meal with 10,000 ingredients.  Don't get me wrong I love cooking!  And I don't mind taking the time, SOME DAYS.  However, generally speaking I'm rushing just like most of you!  

Because we want to eat clean, and usually in the evening I'm trying to cook meals that are primarily veggies with protein.  I love shrimp because its easy to make and it goes with so many things!  I get the frozen wild shrimp often at Whole Foods or Trader Joe's - but it can be purchased anywhere.  The key is to look for the wild stuff.  By letting it set out for a few hours or keeping it in the fridge the night before is a great way to de-thaw it without having to think about it.

Gut Healthy Dal with Grain Free "Naan" bread

Ok, you guys I may have made one of the most amazing lentil recipes yet for me and my fam!  We're on day 3 now and its a huge hit and SO filling!  Usually my husband needs meat in addition to anything vegan I make but this time he's loving it as much as I do!  I also paired it with some delicious grain free, naan bread!  Ok, so my husband calls them pancakes but they are much more dense and I cut them into quarters and served them with the dal and my, oh my they are fantastic!  I consider them a mix taste-wise between corn bread, a pancake, and bread.  My husband just says they are pancakes but you be the judge!  Either way, they add to the texture, and keep this recipe grain free, dairy free, gluten free, and all the other buzz words.  AND they are natural meaning made with REAL FOOD!
