Hungry for a very simple, one-pan paleo recipe packed with protein and veggies that’s easy to whip up and tastes incredible?
Y’know, when I first started cooking paleo meals a couple of years ago, what I really wanted were recipes that were super tasty, loaded with paleo and gluten-free goodness, and didn’t take a long time to make.
I know those aren’t always easy to find. Recipes that involve real food always take a little extra time. You can’t just grab something from the freezer and nuke it on high for 5 minutes.
But darn it, when I get home dog-tired from work I still want a healthy meal I can knock out in a half hour or less. [av_sidebar widget_area=’Lockerdome’ av_uid=’av-2h9gvu’]
We’re all busy enough right? Who wants to spend hours in the kitchen preparing gourmet paleo meals if you don’t have to. Especially after you’ve had a tough day and the kids are screaming they’re starving.
Well here’s a delicious one-skillet wonder to the rescue! With a few veggies on hand and a package of pre-cooked sausage from your fridge, this one can go from pan to plate in about 30.
You can still multi-task and listen to the kids tell you about their day at school while you prepare this no-brainer meal.
And before you know it you’ll be serving up a hearty and hot dish that makes everyone smile.
Real, tasty, savory food like grandma used to make – only faster and simpler. Especially great for all you “no time for this” moms out there who want to serve their families healthy meals and not waste any time doing it.
Hope you enjoy this super easy paleo recipe – and as always, let me know what you think!
Ingredients
- 1 tsp basil
