Paleo Sandwich Buns

If you’re anything like me you really miss bread. Sandwiches are the most convenient and easy meals of all time! What’s better than throwing delicious ingredients between two carb-filled pillows? But when you follow the paleo diet you must live a life sans ‘wich. See what I did there? Well, now there’s no need to feel deprived. I’ve created a recipe that brings you back to the days where you can throw meat and veggies between two paleo buns and MANGIA with your hands. Not to mention these ‘buns’ are made out of a vegetable. So it’s extra guilt-free.

This is a fantastic way to use leftover spaghetti squash.

Servings 8 buns Servings 8 buns Ingredients 2.5 cups spaghetti squash cooked and drained of moisture

3 whole eggs

2 tsp fresh herbs parsley and chives are best

1 clove garlic minced

1/4 -1/2 cup coconut flour depending on moisture content of squash

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/3 cup olive oil for frying Servings: buns Instructions If you haven't already, bake your spaghetti squash until it can be easily scraped out with a fork. (Remove seeds, place in 400 degree oven for 35 minutes with water in the bottom of your pan). Be sure to drain any excess liquid from your squash. If there is too much moisture the fritters will not hold up to a sandwich. This step is important so your buns don't fall apart. Whisk eggs and add squash, garlic, and herbs. Combine. Next, add the sifted flour, baking soda, and salt. Combine. Grab a small handful of the mixture (these are Italian measurements, bear with me). Flatten to about 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick. If your mixture is watery then simply squeeze some out when you are forming the fritters. Or you may add a little bit of coconut flour. Heat the olive oil in a pan on medium-high heat. Fry patties on each side about 2-3 minutes. Lay out on a paper towel after cooking. Assemble your sandwich. Add whatever you'd like! Turkey. Tuna salad. Burgers. You name it.
