Before I get into today’s recipe, I want to share something really exciting with you. Sarah Ballantyne, The Paleo Mom, has created a pilot episode of Paleo Bites, an all paleo TV show. Today, she is sending that pilot episode to different networks, for their approval. Paleo Bites would be an amazing benefit to all of us in the paleo community, including those of us on the AIP. I urge all of you to go here, and help to get Paleo Bites on air. Thanks.

AIP Paleo Mushroom “Risotto” Stuffed Pork Chops|Paleo Cajun Lady
This year has certainly had it’s up and downs. But, I have also learned so much. I have had so much fun learning how to recreate my favorite dishes to fit into the Autoimmune Protocol. Sharing those dishes with all of you has been an important part of my healing journey. This entire AIP community has been a beautiful inspiration. You are why I work tirelessly in my kitchen to provide tasty AIP compliant recipes. I would simply like to thank all of you for your encouragement of my writing and recipes. It takes a lot out of a person to allow themselves to be vulnerable in front of an audience. You have all embraced me, within this community, with open hearts and lively spirits. Thank you all!
Okay, so now that I got all sappy with you, I guess I should get to the recipe. This week’s recipe is AIP Mushroom “Risotto” Stuffed Pork Chops. Risotto is one of my favorite dishes. I love every risotto I’ve ever tasted. The creaminess and intense flavors always make my mouth happy. Mix risotto with pork chops and you’ve got yourself a very pleasing dish!
Cook “risotto”: Melt cooking fat in medium saucepan, over medium/low heat.
Add onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add mushrooms and garlic to saucepan.
Cook for 5 minutes, adding small amounts of broth, if needed, to keep from burning.
Add rosemary and sage and remainder of bone broth.
Continue to cook for 3 minutes, or until most of liquid has been absorbed.
Add riced cauliflower.
Stir well.
Add coconut milk and aminos.
Stir until creamy.
Lower heat and cook for 5 minutes.
Add salt to taste.
Remove from heat and set aside to cool. “Risotto” should be thick for stuffing pork chops.
Preheat oven to 350°.
Slice into each pork chop, lengthwise, at one end of side of chop. Cut into pork chop, carefully, to form a pocket to stuff with “risotto”. Be sure not to cut through the other side of chop.
Stuff each pork chop with cooled “risotto”. Carefully, pack the “risotto” inside of pocket of each chop. Place stuffed chops into baking dish or cast iron skillet
Rub tops of each chop with cooking fat.
Salt, to taste.
Pour broth into baking dish or skillet.
Place in oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until internal temperature of chops reaches 160°. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes.
Reheat any extra Mushroom “Risotto”.
Serve chops with extra Mushroom “Risotto”.
Notes
Kitchen tools needed: Food Processor, for ricing cauliflower; medium saucepan, and large baking dish or cast iron skillet
I hope you enjoy my AIP Mushroom “Risotto” Stuffed Pork Chops. It takes a little extra time to prepare and cook them; but, I think you’ll be happy with the result.
As always, I wish you good health…and, good food!

AIP Paleo Turnip Greens with Pork Recipe|Paleo Cajun Lady
I grew up eating a lot of greens. We had mustard greens, collard greens, turnip greens…oh, wait, I’m starting to sound like Forrest Gump, talking about shrimp. My point is, we ate greens at many of our meals. One of my favorites, AIP Paleo Turnip Greens with Pork recipe, is adapted from my childhood. My grandmother, Ma, used to cook her turnip greens with little chunks of turnip. The flavor mixture was earthy, with a bite of bitter. She also used either ham hocks or a ham bone, which added a smooth, salty flavor. Each bite was relished. Continue reading “AIP Paleo Turnip Greens with Pork Recipe”
