    This recipe is basically pure comfort food: creamy potatoes with carrots and onions, a thick coconut milk sauce, and a long bake time that lets all the vegetables get nice and tender.

    There’s a reason why potato casserole is such a favorite comfort food, and here you can enjoy it in a Paleo-friendly recipe without any instructions to “add 1 can cream of mushroom soup…”.

    Salmon And Potato Pie

    You can choose either white or sweet potatoes (or both) for this recipe – and yes, white potatoes are perfectly fine to eat. Or go for both at the same time!

    The salmon here basically takes the recipe one nutritional step up from tuna fish casserole. Tuna is perfectly nice and fine food to eat, but salmon is even more nutritious, especially when it comes to Omega-3 fats (salmon has lots; tuna has almost none).

    Serve this with roasted carrots, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, or any other vegetable: if you put the veg in when the pie is about halfway done, everything will be ready to eat at the same time.
