Mango Salsa (GAPS, GF)

I’ve been watching “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” and “Hungry for Change” on Netflix today for motivation, and I’m trying to turn it around from my holiday binging…so here we go.  I am making this tonight for supper.  We are having it with fish, although I think it would be good with chicken or pork too.

Mango Salsa (GAPS, GF):

Chop up:

1 red onion

1 cucumber

2 red peppers

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

3-4 mangoes (I only had three, wish I had four so I’d say 4…)

1/4 – 1/2 c. chopped cilantro

Mix all in bowl.  Juice two limes and put juice over salsa.  I thought about adding raw honey but decided against it, but it’s a thought. 🙂  This makes a decent size bowl – there are six of us eating tonight and I think it will be just enough.

We had this last night and liked it so well that I’m making it again tonight…

Honeyed Baked Apples (GAPS, GF)

These were super easy and awesome.  I’m not even going to go into measurements or anything precise like that 🙂 so here it is:

Peel and core as many apples as you want.  I melted a little coconut oil in a 8×8 Pyrex baking dish.  Place apples in baking dish.  Put 1 T. raw honey in the hollowed out part.  I put 1-2 T. ghee (you could use butter or coconut oil) over each apple, dusted them liberally with cinnamon and put them in the oven.  Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour.  Midpoint, I spooned the liquid over them so they didn’t dry out.  I also decided I hadn’t been quite liberal enough with the cinnamon, so I added more. 🙂

Cool a little bit…and enjoy!  We topped ours with chopped walnuts, which are optional if you are dealing with nut allergies.
