Pulled Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches with Coleslaw
Description
While we often use lettuce wraps in grain-free cuisine, sometimes it is just too flimsy and won’t soak up the juicy sauces that accompany the slow-cooked meat, like with this pulled barbecue chicken. Although there are a lot of ingredients, you will probably have most of them in your pantry, and all you have to do is throw them all in the pot and forget about it—cooking doesn’t get better than this if you ask me!
*For Whole30, omit buns and substitute dates for sweeteners

Chicken Broth
Description
While commercial chicken broths and stocks are convenient, some of their ingredients aren’t necessarily convenient to your health. Homemade stocks incorporate healing elements like gelatin, which are generally lost when food is processed. I make my broth with a whole chicken so that the flavor from both the bones and the meat seeps into the broth. Make a large batch and freeze it in pints or quarts so you have some on hand whenever you need it.

Sweet and Sour Meatballs
Description
The meatballs you are probably used to having on game days contain bread crumbs and include white sugar or high-fructose corn syrup in the sauce. This grain-free version uses almond meal or coconut flour to bind the meatballs and natural sweeteners to flavor the sauce. Keep the meatballs warm in a slow cooker throughout the day so your guests can enjoy them until the game ends.
