Double Duty dinner...and some guacamole!


Today is my #3 daughter's 12th birthday and she requested her favorite meal for dinner. Enchiladas! So I made white chicken enchiladas for the family. Now, I'm not perfect and I probably would have eaten them but I know I would have paid for it tomorrow since this meal has both dairy AND grains in it and that never ends well for me. So I threw together some plantain tortillas and filled it with tuna salad topped with homemade guacamole. Simple and delicious! 

I do have to admit though that those enchiladas smelled so good that I was a little jealous of my kids and husband tonight.

Even though it's not Paleo or Whole30 here's the link to the White Chicken Enchiladas. Every time I make these I do an extra pan and throw it in the freezer :)


And for the plantain tortillas I used this recipe from Healthfest. The tuna salad was super easy. Just tuna with some Whole30 mayo and spicy mustard. And the guacamole is easy and SO good! I never liked it until I started making my own. I put this together from a few recipes I found online and it's a hit with the family every time I make it.


Guacamole!!

4 ripe avocados, mashed
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
2 limes (zest of one, juice of both)
1 cup cilantro, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeds and ribs removed, finely diced
1/4 medium red onion, diced
salt, to taste (I actually rarely even put in salt!)

Mix it all up! I like to make mine at least a couple of hours before we eat, so I can put it into the fridge and let the flavors come together. This guac is so good on everything :)
