Servings: 4

Preparation duration: 5 minutes

Cooking duration: 70 minutes

 

Ingredients:

2 cups broccoli florets

1/4 cup full fat coconut milk (always blend your coconut milk before cooking with it so it is fully combined)

1 Tablespoon ghee

1 Tablespoon olive oil

2 large russet potatoes potatoes

2 Tablespoons salt, divided

Equipment:

oven

sauce pan

mixing bowl

potato masher

baking sheet

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wash potatoes and then take 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and rub lightly over all potatoes. Pierce every potato 4 times with a fork. Taking 1 Tablespoon of salt, sprinkle lightly over both potatoes. Bake for 60 minutes, or until just slightly soft when you gently squeeze. When the potatoes have 10 minutes left, place broccoli florets in medium sauce pan and add just enough water to cover the bottom. Cover and bring to a boil. Stir the broccoli and cover again. Let simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and strain; set aside. When potatoes are done and have cooled slightly, cut each potato lengthwise. Using a spoon, scoop out the insides of the potato halves, leaving approximately 1/2 inch around the skin; place the scooped out insides in a medium mixing bowl. Add ghee, coconut milk and 1 Tablespoon salt to the potato and mash with a potato masher. Taste and add additional coconut milk to make creamier or more salt, to taste. Add broccoli and stir to mix. Scoop the broccoli mixture back into the potato skins, ensuring each skin holds approximately the same amount. Place potatoes on a lined baking sheet and broil on high for 3-5 minutes, watching very carefully so they dont burn. You want the tips of the potatoes to just barely turn brown. Serve immediately with your favorite ranch dressing (I recommend a Whole30 complaint ranch if you have it)

Food Joke

A man walks up to the bar with an ostrich behind him, and as he sits, the bartender comes over, and asks for his order. The man says, "I'll have a beer," and turns to the ostrich. "What about you?" "I'll have a beer too," says the ostrich. The bartender pours the beer and says "That will be $3.40 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out exact change for payment. The next day, the man and ostrich come again, and the man says "I'll have a beer," and the ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Once again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change. This becomes a routine until, late one evening, the two enter again. "The usual?" asks the bartender. "Well, it's close to last call, so I'll have a large scotch" says the man. "Same for me," says the ostrich. "That will be $7.20," says the bartender. Once again the man pulls exact change out of his pocket and places it on the bar. The bartender can't hold back his curiosity any longer. "Excuse me sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your pocket every time?" "Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the attic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I just put my hand in my pocket, and the right amount of money will always be there." "That's brilliant " says the bartender. "Most people would wish for a million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live " "That's right Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there," says the man. The bartender asks, "One other thing, sir, what's with the ostrich?" The man replies "My second wish was for a chick with long legs."
