Primitive recipes for a modern Super Bowl.....


Here are two favorite recipes that are on the menu at my house for tomorrows BIG game. Please share your own Primitive/Primal/Paleo or RAW favorites. Would love to see some photo's shared on the wall at Primitive Diva's Facebook Fan Page. Get busy in the Kitch, Diva's!




GREEN bay Salsa (also known as The Diva’s Primitive Salsa Verde)

8 Tomatillos
2 Large Cucumbers
1 Avocado
6-8 Cloves of Garlic
1 Cup Cilantro
1/2 Cup diced Green Onions
2 Jalapeno's (seeded)
Juice of 1 Lime
1-2 Tsp. Himalyan Salt (optional)

1) Blend in food processor and place in glass bowl, cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours while flavors blend.

2)Serve with sprouted grain chips--- preferably Kohlrabi slices or Terra Root chips (If you are grain free, like me)----ENJOY!


Pittsburg Potatoe skins (not Red skins, haha!)

6 large sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
Several dashes bottled hot pepper sauce
1 cup chopped nitrate free natural bacon(cooked and chopped)
1 medium tomato, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
*4 ounces shredded raw unpasteurized Goat cheese (i.e. Naked Goat)
*1/2 cup Greek God’s or RAW yogurt (*optional)

1)Scrub potatoes thoroughly and prick with a fork, bake potatoes in a 425 degrees F. oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until tender.) Cool.

2)Halve each potato lengthwise. Scoop out the inside of each potato half, leaving about a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Cover and chill the leftover filling (great for making sweet potato muffins-Primal style) Combine the coconut oil, chili powder, and hot pepper sauce. With a pastry brush, brush the insides of the potato halves with the oil mixture. Cut the potato halves in half lengthwise. Return to the baking sheet. Sprinkle potato quarters with bacon, tomato, and green onion.

3)Bake at 450 for 10 minutes. When done you spay sprinkle the raw goat cheese on top and allow to melt (do not heat the cheese).Then top with optional yogurt. I have even used diced or pureed avocado for extra healthy fats and flavor!

I hope you enjoy these....!
