    Everyday Is A BBQ Day with Primal Kitchen’s BBQ Marinade

    BBQ is all American family’s classic favorite food! Especially at holidays, nothing is better than grilling together and enjoying the great smoky food. About this year’s BBQ marinade, I want to introduce Primal Kitchen’s BBQ marinade sauces. Here I will show some recipes to update your normal BBQ recipes to the next level. How about Chinese BBQ Pork Buns?

    Do you love Dim Sum? I do! If you have Asian friends, the first ever meal he/she brings you to try probably would be dim sum. If this is not the first meal with your Asian friends, I believe you hear about Chinese dim sum a lot, right? As dim sum restaurants are not the places to go during these special days, let’s try to make them at home! Not difficult at all, with Primal Kitchen’s organic and no sugar Classic BBQ Sauce.

    Chinese BBQ Pork Buns

    Celebrate a Asian food-inspired Christmas or the coming Chinese New Year in style with gluten-free BBQ Pork Buns, made with Primal Kitchen and packed with uncompromisingly delicious flavor. Whether you’re hosting a family party or looking for something savory and celebratory just for two, this dish is for you.

    Primal Kitchen organic and no sugar Classic BBQ Sauce comes with just enough smokey flavor to really make this recipe pop. Luxurious and soft, these Chinese BBQ Buns come to life when combined with our brand new, best-selling sauce, renowned for its depth of flavor and high quality, Whole30-Approved ingredients.

    Whole30 BBQ Chicken with Coffee Dry Rub & Hawaiian BBQ Sauce

    This isn’t an average grilled chicken recipe—it starts with a punchy, memorable homemade dry rub that’s Whole30, keto, and Primal/paleo—gets cooked through in the oven, brushed with Whole30 Approved Hawaiian barbecue sauce, and placed on a hot grill to develop a crisp charred exterior. Made with salt, seven spices, and decaffeinated coffee granules, this recipe’s Whole30 dry rub seasoning mix works beautifully on just about anything… from poultry to beef to cauliflower and eggplant, you can use all winter long to season any food you’d like to roast, bake, or grill.

    This recipe coats the chicken pieces in the Whole30 dry rub first, then bake the chicken in the oven in order to ensure even cooking. Then basting the chicken with Whole30 barbecue sauce before placing on the grill to char—if you coat the chicken pieces with barbecue sauce before cooking it in the oven, the sauce would burn and turn bitter rather than develop the lightly charred flavor that only a grill can provide.

    Air Fryer Paleo Chicken Tenders with BBQ Sauce

    Most kids, no matter how old, adore chicken tenders. OK, maybe some (or most?) adults love them, too. These eat-with-your-hands family favorites are breaded with a spiced coating then usually deep fried until they reach golden perfection. Moist on the inside, crunchy on the outside, chicken tenders are fun to dunk in BBQ sauce, ranch dressing, ketchup, honey mustard, sweet and sour sauce, and on and on. Instead of buying frozen pre-made chicken tenders, or ordering them out at a sports bar, here created a Primal/paleo chicken tender recipe that includes no eggs, dairy, gluten, or grains. This paleo chicken tenders have an extra special zip, as using Primal Kitchen Vegan Ranch Dressing in the wet batter to ensure that this seasoned grain-free coating sticks to the chicken pieces. Dip the chicken tenders in Primal Kitchen Classic BBQ Sauce for tangy, smoky BBQ-ranch flavor.

    Instead of deep fried in canola or vegetable oil, this recipe coated the breaded chicken tenders with sprayable avocado oil then baked them in the Air Fryer. If you don’t have an Air Fryer, you can bake these chicken tenders in the oven at 425ºF for about 8 minutes per side (turn over halfway through baking) for a total of 16 minutes. Check out the full recipe at here.

    No Cook Meal Plan – Paleo BBQ Chicken Wraps

    Liberation can be won from standing over a hot stove, creating your own sauces, having anxiety about burning food, overcooking or undercooking meat, or feeling pressure to make everything from scratch because you want to eat more real foods. You don’t have to wave the metaphoric anti-cooking white flag either and order takeout or buy another ready-made meal from the grocery store because you don’t want to deal with the post-work hassle of deciding what to cook for dinner.

    Whether it’s too hot to turn on heat-creating kitchen appliances, you don’t know how or don’t want to cook, or you’re bone-tired and frazzled after meeting daytime obligations and can’t face an hour or more of food preparation, this no cook meal plan can be your saving grace. It’s a dinner that require little more effort than chopping produce; putting a store-bought rotisserie chicken to good use; and letting real-food, pre-made dressings, mayos, and sauces do the hard work of adding palate-pleasing flavor and variety to your and even your whole family’s evening meals. Check out the full recipe at here.

    Primal Kitchen products are unlike any others that you’ll find in the grocery store. The entire collection aims to satiate exquisitely with real, simple, exceptional ingredients—like avocado oil, collagen, oil of oregano and apple cider vinegar—that contain no dairy, gluten, grain, refined sugar or soy. As the founder, Mark would say, EAT LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT, because it does.

    Sip on The Scrumptious Taste of Snickerdoodle

    I love holiday coffees – pumpkin spice latte, peppermint mocha, eggnog latte… Sounds so yummy, but also sounds so guilty. I want to introduce this keto-friendly holiday coffee drink which delivers all of the flavors that you expect for the coming holiday – it is the Snickerdoodle Caramel Latte!

    Here is the recipe from Primal Kitchen. It is so simple, so tasty and the most important, you can drink it without feeling any guilty. It blends your milk of choice (this recipe used coconut), steamed, with hot drip coffee swirled with Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel for a burst of cinnamon-sugar flavor. Top with real whipped cream, or coconut cream if you can’t tolerate dairy, a couple pinches of ground cinnamon, and a swirl of keto-friendly caramel. This Keto Snickerdoodle Caramel Coffee perches the angel and the devil on your shoulders, only for once they’re in silent agreement that you should sip and savor this fancy, seductive coffee drink in peace.

    Keto Snickerdoodle Caramel Coffee with Collagen

    Ingredients:

    • 6 ounces water
    • 2 Tbsp coffee grounds (I used Dope Coffee)
    • 1/4 cup (2.16 ounces) milk of your choice
    • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream or coconut cream
    • 1 scoop Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel
    • 2 Tbsp keto caramel* (I used Monk fruit Sweetener for substitute)
    • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
    • 1 cinnamon stick, if desired

    Equipment notes:

    • Use a 10- to 12-ounce mug for this recipe.
    • You’ll need a stand mixer or handheld beaters to whip the cream.
    • You’ll need a mason jar a French Press to steam the milk.

    Instructions:

    • Prepare coffee in a coffee maker, French press, or pour over coffee maker. While the coffee is brewing, steam the milk, and whip the cream.

    To make whipped cream:

    • Pour cream into stand mixer metal bowl fitted with the wire whisk attachment, or into a metal bowl with handheld beater whisks inserted into the cream.
    • Turn the mixer to medium speed.
    • Whip air into cream for about 3 minutes.

    To make steamed milk:

    • Mason jar + microwave method: Pour milk into a small mason jar, then screw the lid on tightly. Shake the jar (show it who’s boss) until the milk is frothy. Remove the lid and microwave the milk on medium-high power for 30 seconds. Remove milk and stir. Heat for another 15 seconds, then stir.
    • French Press method: Heat milk either in the microwave or on the stove (140ºF is the right temperature, in case you’re measuring). Pour milk into a clean French Press and push plunger up and down repeatedly until the milk doubles in volume.

    To assemble the coffee drink:

    • Add 1 scoop of Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel to the bottom of your large mug.
    • Pour the hot coffee on top of the collagen.
    • Use a fork to whisk the collagen into the coffee until well combined. Pour the steamed milk over the coffee.
    • Top with whipped cream and keto caramel. Dust with ground cinnamon, and add a cinnamon stick, if desired.

    If you have a sweet tooth like me, you might be easily seduced by cookies—particularly homemade, barely-out-of-the-oven cookies. This is the perfect cookie condition; it’s in a state of a-little-more-cooked than cookie dough but not yet hardened by the room temperature air that cools it to a more crisp texture. This Primal Snickerdoodle Cookies strive to be that fusion of soft interior with an ever-so-slight crunch when the teeth tap into it.

    Primal Snickerdoodle Cookies

    Like a mom to multiple children, moms won’t pick a favorite cookie (at least not out loud, ha), but snickerdoodle cookies definitely top mom’s list of all-time fave classic cookies. Sweet, spicy, buttery, and soft, snickerdoodles are great year-round, but fit oh-so-well on holiday cookie plates and alongside a chai latte or pumpkin spice latte when the days get shorter and the air gets more crisp in the fall.

    Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
    • 5 Tbsp Brown Sugar Swerve
    • 1 cup almond flour
    • 2 1/2 tsp full-fat coconut milk
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda
    • Pinch of salt
    • 1/3 cup + 1 1/2 tsp Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel

    Roll cookie balls in:

    • 2 Tbsp granular monk fruit or Swerve
    • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

    Instructions

    • Cut cold butter into small chunks. Place the butter in a bowl and add in the Swerve and almond flour. Use the back of a fork or a food processor to work the butter into the sweetener.
    • Add in the coconut milk, baking soda, vanilla extract, salt, and Collagen Fuel, and mix with the fork.
    • Form dough into 8 balls. Roll in cinnamon-sweetener.
    • Line a cookie sheet with parchment. Place the dough balls on the parchment-lined cookie sheet and put in the freezer for 30 minutes.
    • Preheat oven to 325ºF. Remove cookie sheet from the freezer. Bake cookies on the middle rack for 10-12 minutes (until balls have just melted flat and aren’t risen in center).
    • Remove cookies from the oven. While still hot, gently lift parchment (with cookies still on it). Take a glass or small bowl that is slightly larger than the cookies and gently swirl it around the cookies to bring the edges in tight and make perfect circles.
    • Allow to cool before removing from from the cookie sheet with a spatula.
