Dr Jockers Comments:
This is one of my wife’s and my favorite recipes that we enjoy every week. It is low in carbs and full of good fats, healthy proteins, fiber and phytonutrient rich veggies. We love adding turmeric to our recipes as it is one of nature’s most powerful anti-inflammatory herbs.
We really enjoy the turmeric coconut wraps, although they are thin, so you cannot stuff them full. Better to put a smaller amount of chicken and veggies and get a more stable wrap that won’t break or squirt all over the place. The guacamole takes this recipe over the top!
Try making my creamy lemon superfood guacamole and enjoy that with these fajitas! Let us know how you enjoyed this recipe!
By the way, if you are looking for where you can get organic, free range chicken, than check out US Wellness Meats and Slankers where you can order the highest quality meat products and have them shipped right to your door.
Good to know where we can get the best meats from.
Our family enjoys this recipe and we like making it for when we host guests…it’s quick, very tasty and nutritious!
That is awesome Rebecca!!
My husband and I really liked the spice flavoring of this recipe. I didn’t have garlic salt or sesame seeds. I substituted with garlic powder and gamoshio(sesame seeds with salt). Used corn wraps cause that is what I had. After eating and commenting on how delicious. I realized I forgot to add the turmeric and black pepper. Good without but will add next time. Also shared with family.
Gamoshio
Great to hear that Helen!
