I'm not suffering cravings at all. The only suffering that I'm doing right now is all due to my allergies -- what felt like just general stuffy nose issues is now almost feeling like a downright cold. My head is achy and my nose is aching and runny. So I think my body is fighting me for completely different reasons.
Yesterday, I bought coconut flour and almond flour/meal for the first time and started to look for recipes for its use. I found a few I might try, but I did this recipe last night and thought it was great.
Gluten-Free Chicken Fingers
5 skinless chicken thighs, cut into strips
2-3 eggs beaten
1/4 cup coconut flour
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
salt and pepper
coconut oil for frying
(Note: This is modified from this recipe -- I used whole eggs instead of just whites, and chicken thighs instead of breasts)
Cut the chicken thighs into strips. Sprinkle salt and pepper onto both sides of the chicken.
Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk together. Then mix coconut flour and parmesan cheese together, taking out all the lumps.
Dredge the chicken through the egg, then through the flour/cheese mixture.
Cook coconut oil to 375 degrees, and fry up the chicken in batches of 3-4 for 4 to 6 minutes, turning at the halfway point.
I'm definitely going to be making these again.
