Paleo Tomatillo Sauce

Tomatillo Sauce is a fat-free staple in our home that works for the Paleo diet. We use to make big batches every year from our tomatillos we grew on our farm. There are so many great dishes you can make with tomatillos. This weekend we made a big batch from tomatillos we picked up at the farmers market. Being on the Paleo diet has helped my husband not only lose weight but gain a ton of energy. Caveman energy he calls it.

Now that we are into 2018 a lot of folks are looking for low-calorie additions to their diet that they can incorporate into low-fat dishes. This sauce is perfect on top of fish, wrapped in a large lettuce leaf with chicken for chicken tacos, or simple a dipping sauce.

From reading online Tomatillos contain a good amount of dietary fiber, minerals, anti-oxidants, and vitamins. They also contain anti-bacterial and anti-cancer properties. Not too bad of a fruit to include in your diet. Create this sauce and use on all of your Paleo dishes that you want to kick up the flavor just a bit.  Tomatillos are great roasted as well.

    I’ve got to make some of this. I’m a HUGE fan of spicy foods. If my eyes aren’t watering, it’s not hot enough. 😉

    This sauce looks delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe, I’d love to begin making my own sauces and ditching the jars.

    I honestly don’t think I’ve ever had tomatillo anything. But that certainly sounds really good.

    I used to work in a Mexican restaurant and we made ours from scratch. I have not make it in so long. I have a taste for it and will try your recipe!

  • Terri Beavers

    That looks so good and I just bet it would taste scrumptious on fried salmon patties (and veggies). I love tomato relish on them. Thanks for the recipe, I just might have to try it.
