    If you're going to eat like a caveman, I don't think you'd have a need for recipes seeing as how they just killed and put the kill on an open flame. However, if I'm not taking your request so literal I would recommend using the search function MFP provides. It's very useful. Here are a few links with some recipes listed on each:

    Nope. All you need is a campfire!

    Which region do you belong to?

    then you need to eat foods that are regional to your area.

    "caveman" did not have recipes they ate nuts, roots, legumes, etc, that were local to their region.

    so walk out your door and start eating some plants and roots…they also ate raw meet from dead animals, so road kill would qualify as well.

    FYI - there are no Paleo recipes...

    Road kill doesn't qualify because there weren't roads...

    +1 for everything else though.

    OP are you in a rural area? Go kill one of your neighbor's cows.

    These guys here are being highly sarcastic I think. There are numerous blogs to show the light to paleo life. I highly recommend going through this guide to find out one of my favorite paleo book.

    That's too easy. Not enough of a chase. Though I guess when the neighbor catches them... I doubt cavemen could outrun a shotgun.

    Depends on what part of Canada. Eastern seaboard peoples ate a lot of fish, berries, and nuts. Western plains peoples ate mostly meat with very little carbs. Northern peoples ate mostly fish and seals/walrus/whales. In Canada alone, you have high carb/low protein diet, high protein/low carb, and high fat/mid protein/and low carb. Which are you going for?

    Yup, hence the high fat/moderate protein/low carb diet.

    OP: If you are going to eat like caveman, you should also live like one. You should find a cave to live in, they didn't have electricity or internet either. ;)

    They would likely be dairy cows depending on where she lives, and that's agriculture. Plus a domesticated breed. If her neighbor has a ranch or is a shepherd, would be better. I recommended hunting aurochs, though.
