Honey-mustard drumsticks are always a hit when it comes to entertaining around the grill, though the weather doesn't always cooperate with barbecue dinner plans.
Be flexible in life and in cooking, and trust that your oven can do the same wonderful job, perhaps even better. Baked chicken drumsticks are a simple, appetizing dish that everyone will devour, especially when served with creamy coleslaw and a generous slice of Paleo "cornbread."
Paleo cornbread? The fluffy stuff that we used to dip into our bean-filled chili? No, not that kind of bread, nor that classic chili. Now we have Paleo no-bean chili to satisfy our winter cravings and corn-free cornbread to fulfill our greatest expectations.
It takes a quick search to find a scrumptious recipe, though we'll toss you a short list of all the ingredients needed to make this magic cornbread: eggs, almond milk, almond flour, coconut flour or ghee, honey, baking powder, salt, and coconut oil.
In essence, you toss all ingredients into a bowl, stir well, pour into a lined pan, and bake for 20 minutes. See? Magic. Of course, it is a little more involved than this, you'll have to seek out the details to make your own kitchen sorcery.
While you are whipping up new dishes, take the time to make your own Paleo mayonnaise too. The vegetables will thank you for coating them in such a creamy, mouthwatering dressing.
