Since visiting my brother Rob in Houston, I have discovered a delicious genius – Tajin. Where has this spice been all my life? Sandra taught me to put it on avocado and fruits. Sometimes, I put it on my hands and lick it off, it is that good!
Well, today a friend of mine is a food blogger on a site called A Sweet Simple Life. She cooks gluten free. I LOVED her post so much, that I want to share the recipe because a simple adjustment makes this recipe Paleo. She used kidney beans. I am sure this soup is yummy without it. You could add any veggies you like, just cook the harder veggies slightly so they are soft in the soup. I think I might add spinach to this. I cannot wait to try this.
Tajin Chicken Chile
Olive Oil
1/4 purple onion, minced

1 chicken breast
Salt

4 lime or lemon (and lime juice) wedges

Bring to a boil.Add bay leaves and chicken breast. Simmer for 30 minutes. Remove cooked chicken and shred with a fork. Place back in pan. Add bell peppers. Let simmer for 10 more minutes.
Serve hot with a lime wedge.
Thanks Heather for a yummy inspiration. If you all get a chance, check out her blog. It is beautiful, and she has some wonderful recipes that with some slight adjustments, we can make it Paleo.

Of course it is, and let me explain why! The fact that it happens to be at the end of the workout does not mean it is less important. […]

On January 21st, CrossFit West Houston turned ten years old. Ten years in business is a pretty big milestone. Big milestones offer a time to reflect on the good, the bad and the ugly.
