Here are five of my easiest Whole30 recipes that will be a hit with your family and friends!
This Sunday Salad is packed with luscious deliciousness. It has a great balance of textures and flavors. Whole30 or not, this is going to become a crowd favorite. It’s easy to assemble, and a perfect entree salad for Sunday dinner with leftovers (if there are any) for the week!
2. Marinated Onions
I lovea magic elixir–a special sauceor bit of magic that turns ordinary food into extraordinary. In my circle, I’m a little famous for the bowl of marinated red onions on my kitchen counter (we even call them “Counter Onions”!)…which isamusing, because how could I haveknown these onions would start a movement? Frommy Instagram stories, you may know that I prizea beautiful entrée salad, and every entrée salad I make includes a bit of this oniony goodness. And there just isn’t a simpler recipe out there!
3. Whole30 Heroine Chicken
The trick to this spectacular Whole30 recipe is to marinate the chicken for 48 hours before roasting. Now, you may see this recipe and say “oh, lemon chicken”, but there is something about the combination of ingredients, marinade and time that is a little piece of magic that I am not going to question.
4. Whole30 Salisbury Steak
I love an old-school dish, and I especially enjoy updating my old-school favorites. My Whole30 Salisbury Steak is a soul-satisfying, truly delicious, sumptuous dinner you will want to add to your weekly rotation.
5. Whole30 Shrimp Tacos with Avocado Crema
I have to say, Whole30 Shrimp Tacos are a total let’s go moment! To keep these shrimp tacos Whole30, we used Jicama wrapswhich lend a really great little crunch to every bite.
My Fabulous Whole30 Wedge Salad Recipe!
One dish I miss on Whole30 is a wedge salad. So, I created a recipe that would play on that and not make me feel one bit deprived. It starts with a wedge of iceberg, then tiny chopped peppers, crisps of Whole30 compatible bacon, soft-boiled eggs, this truly amazing Green Goddess dressing MAGIC ELIXIRS, then it is finished off with some fabulous crispy cashews that take it over the top. You’re absolutely going to love it!

In addition to its appealing mix of cooling and creamy elements, one of the hallmarks of a wedge salad is its total simplicity—overcomplicating it in an attempt to make a version that stands out from the crowd flies in the face of what this salad should be, which is dead easy.
The wedges of iceberg lettuce are topped with bacon, tomatoes, chives and red onion and then drizzled with a dairy free ranch. This salad is Paleo, Whole30, Grain Free, Gluten Free, Keto, Dairy Free and Specific Carbohydrate Diet Legal.
“The surrounding ingredients of a wedge salad are very expensive,” says Couper. “We typically use two types of blue cheese that are not inexpensive. Plus, we use hand-cut Nueske's bacon that we fry to order, and that's not cheap.” You can find picture-perfect versions of the wedge at Kinzie Chophouse (400 N.
Do not eat dairy. This includes cow, goat, or sheep's milk products like milk, cream, cheese, kefir, yogurt, sour cream, ice cream, or frozen yogurt. Do not consume carrageenan or sulfites. If these ingredients appear in any form on the label of your processed food or beverage, it's out for the Whole30.
Lettuce actually needs a good amount of airflow, in addition to a bit of moisture (but not too much!), in order to stay crisp. That's why restaurants store their lettuce in special perforated bins that allow for air circulation while it's held in the fridge.
If you think the grilled chicken nuggets are A-OK, think again. They're off-limits because they contain ingredients like cornstarch, molasses, and soybean oil. Even the fruit cups contain added sugar, and the salads have ingredients like soybean oils and cornstarch.
Kiwi is just one of the Whole30-approved ingredients in the Chili Mango-Kiwi Salad. 64. Pineapple. A single serving of pineapple boasts 131% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin C.
Let's start with a food list of what you can eat on Whole30: All vegetables, including potatoes. Fruit, including strawberries, watermelon, apples, oranges, and bananas. Seafood, such as fish, oysters, shrimp, and mussels.
Merriman's wedge theory: a heavy hand on the dressing, a sharp red-wine vinaigrette on the tomatoes to provide acid against all the fat and a kind of ragged perfect cut on the wedge itself.
This resulted in every bite tasting vibrant and flavorful. "Season your salad just like you would anything else," Simpson said. "Salt is a big difference between salads at home and salads in a restaurant." This doesn't mean you have to make your salads salty!
Waldorf salad is named for the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City, where it was first created for a charity ball given in honor of the St. Mary's Hospital for Children on March 13, 1896.
While homemade versions of chips made with whole foods are considered Whole30, no store-bought chips of any kind are considered Whole30 compatible — that goes for potato chips, sweet potato chips, Siete chips, plantain chips, terra chips, veggie chips, and any other store-bought chip you can think of.
Though diet sodas and sugary beverages are off-limits on the Whole30 diet, you can drink water, herbal teas, coffee, and any other liquids that don't contain any sugar or artificial sweeteners. Fruit juice, when 100% pure, is also acceptable on occasion.
A wedge makes work easier by increasing the force applied to the object, although it applies the force over a shorter distance. This gives the wedge a mechanical advantage greater than 1.
A wedge as a tool is used to push two things apart such as the blade of a sword and knife does when it cuts wood. A wedge can also be used to lift an object or hold an object in place. The mechanical advantage of a wedge depends on the ratio of its length to its thickest part.
The wedge provides a cold crisp texture to accompany the steak. Interestingly, Iceberg lettuce also helps our digestive system break down heavy proteins and carbohydrates.
It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place. It functions by converting a force applied to its blunt end into forces perpendicular (normal) to its inclined surfaces.
