Lamb and Kidney Meat Pies, Flash Fiction Kitchen

I had to include this recipe for its uniqueness. It’s actually kind of difficult to find tigernut flour recipes that are savory rather than sweet, especially one that includes meat. These remind me of little meat and potato pies called pasties, which my grandma makes. These look pretty decadent. If you don’t like lamb or kidney, you can sub in another type of meat. 

Sweet Potato Casserole with Tigernuts, Sweet Treats

Ok, this is a little more sweet than savory but it's in the savory category because it's more of a side dish to a savory meal. Tigernuts play a role in making up a beautiful crispy topping in this sweet potato casserole. It’s a perfect side dish for the holidays and in general.

AIP Tigernut Drinks

Tigernut Milk, Real Food and Love

Tigernut milk is something I’ve just recently become aware of. I knew about tigernuts but never thought to make milk out of them. Before going AIP, I learned to make almond milk which is really fun so it’s awesome that a similar drink is still an option on AIP. It’s pretty simple to make too. 

Cinnamon Honey Tiger Nut Horchata (AIP), Goodie Goodie Gluten-Free

Here's a little twist on tigernut milk- its ingredients are simple but it sounds amazing.
