Healthy Momos

Momos are Indian/Nepalese dumplings. Most of us are familiar with Chinese dumplings, which have a bit of sweetness. The momos that we make are spicy and delicious. Below is a recipe to make momos and rather than using a flour wrapper, ill use spinach leaves to turn it into a healthy option.

Momo filling:
2 lbs ground chicken
1.5 Red Onions
6 to 8 green chillies - small
6 cloves garlic
1/3 box Momo masala(you can use all spice, coriander, and cumin powder if you don't have momo masala)
Salt for taste (2tsp is what I typically use)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
Optional - chopped cilantro (4 to 6 stems)

Spinach or lettuce leaves for wrapper

Process:
Empty ground chicken in a bowl
In food processor, puree onion, garlic, and green chillies
Mix throughly the purée and ground chicken
Add the spices and keep mixing
Add cilantro and mix

1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup walnuts

Pre-heat oven to 325

Step 1 - mix coconut flour, salt, and baking soda
