![Orange Chicken [Whole30 & Gluten-Free]](https://i2.wp.com/wholesome-joy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/dsc_0002.jpg?fit=720%2C1080&ssl=1)
Forget takeout, this grain-free Chinese Orange Chicken is ready in 30 minutes, tastier than anything you'll have delivered, and will make all of the adults and kiddos happy! Even better is that it's made with whole ingredients making this dish Whole30 compliant, grain and gluten-free, and the perfect treat to your ketogenic lifestyle netting roughly 12 carbs per serving.
Historically, green beans are the one vegetable I have loathed. But.. no one told me about green beans when they're pretty much smothered in butter. These green beans are delicious, ready in a pinch, and feel fancy enough to serve to all of your guests!
Cutting out grains can be challenging. One day you're sitting back eating a pretzel bun chili-cheese dog and the next you're just holding a naked wiggly meat stick wondering "what am I supposed to do with this?" Trust me, I get it. For this exact reason, I have compiled a list of all of my most basic cheats!
I like to believe everything is better with a sauce. This Smoky-Lime Mayo is just what I am looking for when assembling a slider, chicken salad, or the base to Taco Tuesday's fish taco sauce.

This skillet sweet potato hash is my favorite base to build my breakfast around. It is the perfect amount of energy to kick start my day and when those bright yolks hit it, it's a magical flavor combination.

Usually it’s just food around here and after I press “post” I’m going to totally go head to toe with this guest room/ ROSIE’s room/ photo corner/ “office” [😂]/ whatever else I’m going to call it, #ApartmentLiving, out of embarrassment!
.
But, but, I WASN’T A SLOTH TODAY! This #enneagram9 got herself up and at it and that deserves a worthy mirror selfie! Speaking of, am I supposed to look through the mirror at the camera or into my phone through the mirror? 🤷🏻♀️

Trying my best to beat The Peacemaker sloth-like temptations these days and sometimes, just sometimes, a little proof that I can do it helps!

Nothing brings me more joy than having a crazy delicious dinner ready in 30 minutes. The only way we can have family dinner [at home] multiple times a week is if the meal is timely and uses minimal ingredients.

40 clove chicken checks all of the boxes. It’s perfect for a weeknight dinner, makes me feel fancy with the gooey roasted garlic, and is 100% real food.
