Paleo Sweet Potato Alfredo with Caramelized Brussels Sprouts & Bacon

I have been craving a fettuchine alfredo for weeks, but doing Paleo foods instead of grains, dairy & processed foods has made me think outside of the box.. I try to cook things that aren't just the Paleo way but tastier than the regular food so that I not just enjoy eating it but would rather have it Paleo style than the processed junk. It took a few times to get the correct amount of measurements and right ingredients to make it taste delicious... Here is the reciepe: 

Alfredo Sauce: 

Ingredients: 

- Juice from Half a Lemon

- 3/4 lb. Chopped Califlower

- 1 Sliced Onion

- 1 Cup Coconut Milk

- 1/2 Cup Chicken Stock

- 1/2 Teaspoon Sea Salt

- 2 Cloves of Garlic Minced

- 1 Tablespoon Basil

Directions: 

- Before making the Alfredo sauce I make fry a 1/2 lb. of bacon and use 1/4 of the grease from the bacon to sautée the califlower and garlic in.

- Set aside another 1/4 of the grease to caramelize the Brussels Sprouts(you can just leave it in the pan on low so it doesn't become a solid form).

- Combine the juice from the lemon, coconut milk, chicken stock, onion,  sea salt & Basil in a food processor. 

- After the califlower and garlic are sautéed I combine it with the ingredients in the food processor and make sure it is in liquid form. 

- Than transfer to a deep pan to warm on medium heat, than turn down to low once it's simmering. Continue to stir so it doesn't stick in the pan.

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts: 

Ingredients: 

- 1 pound Brussels Sprouts

- 1/4 Cup Bacon Grease

- 1 Teaspoon Sea Salt

- 1 Teaspoon Pepper

Directions:

- Heat the grease on a low-medium heat, mix the Brussels Sprouts, sea salt & pepper together & make sure all of the Brussels Sprouts are evenly coated. 

- Stirring occasionally so all sides are able to be evenly cooked, simmer until soft. 

- Set aside on low heat.

Sweet Potato Noodles 

Ingredients:

- 2 Sweet Potatoes

- 1 1/2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil

Directions:

- Heat a pan of water to boiling point. 

- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes.

- You can either grate the sweet potatoes using a cheese grater or you can use a sprializer to make the sweet potatoes into long sprialed noodles. 

- Put the sweet potatoes in the boiling water and cook them until they are soft.

- Drain the water off of the sweet potatoes and than combine them with the white sauce, Brussels Sprouts & crumble bacon on top. 

Enjoy!!
