Daily Walk around the Neighborhood.

Every day I have decided to take a little walk around our neighborhood.  We live in a little mountain town called Trecastagni.  Each little city up here has a town square, and we live within walking distance from ours.  Its very convenient, there is a little market, a cafe, a rotisserie chicken restaurant, a bakery, a pharmacy, a church, and some other little businesses.  Here are a few pics I snapped from todays walk.

Paleo stuffed Portabella-shrooms. YUM!

Everything was closed during the time I took my walk.  From 12-430 or 5 all businesses close and everyone goes home to take a nap and eat a huge lunch before they reopen again for the evening. Sometimes this is quite frustrating, but we have gotten used to it.  For dinner tonight I made another new Paleo recipe.  I adapted it from a recipe by Emeril. Portabella mushrooms stuffed with spicy Italian sausage (with bell peppers).  Instead of regular breadcrumbs I incorporated Paleo breadcrumbs ( Almond meal, flax-seed, pepper, garlic powder). Turned out really delicious.  On DH's I put a little bit of freshly grated parmesan cheese.  Paired with a side of fresh tomatoes. There you have it!  Thats it for now, thanks for stopping by! (Let me know if you would like the full recipe with details and I will gladly send to you!)
