Savory Cassava- Carrot Waffles or Tortillas
Savory Cassava- Carrot Waffles or Tortilla (Paleo, Gluten-free, Grain-free, Whole30, Dairy-free, Vegan) |
I was very hungry yesterday, I made a roasted chicken breast, but I needed something denser with carbs to accompany it, so I wanted to try something different. It`s crazy and funny at the same time because several times when you want to do a new thing nothing appears in your mind, or the first attempt is a waste, but from the first moment during the morning that I thought about it, it has been the exact result you are seeing right here.
To corroborate that this was not a fluke 😊 today I did it again, oh my gosh! 💥 but best of all, I put ground beef inside, more shredded carrot, and bent it, mmm it`s like a tortilla, but without having to work and cook each one on a skillet because the waffle maker does the work for you, and they did not break at all! I bet that you will love it too! I am very happy to be able to cut the time in the kitchen, I am dancing on one foot, will you?
So how could we call them? Waffles or Tortillas? Anything works here, depending on the food you will do and the uses you want for these babies. They are crusty outside and a little chewy inside, I am in love with them.
Each one is loaded with protein, fat, and fiber, offering a low glycemic index, carbs that become into resistant starches that heal the gut, raw carrots that have a bunch of vitamins A, also C, and B6, minerals: iron, calcium, and magnesium, and potassium, and sodium, they are gluten-free, paleo, plant-based, and grain-free, want more? I don`t.
Yeap friends, again I am hiding veggies! 🙈 as I told you my son does not like anything that seems not traditional, not known, or invented, with a different texture, so I think he has the wrong mama 😂 shhh don`t say anything ok?, only I am trying to find a way to improve his health, but I know that in general, the persons don`t like to experiment and change too much, there are a lot of them out there that are picky eaters, it`s very normal in children, but the adult people are too.
Everybody here is learning every day to change almost every aspect of life including eating well and being better and healthy, am I wrong?
Let`s do it!
