  • I made paleo muffins, but, dang it I felt guilty eating them. Calories, you know. And, I wanted to slather them with butter. Had to give them to my gluten-free neighbors. Except for my 3xweekly wine, we try to stay Paleo. Just today I bought milk and greek yogurt though. We were concerned about our calcium intake. Do you…

  • Potatoes are very nutrient dense, especially the skin. It's what you put on them that makes them icky for you. Salsa, veggies sautéed in broth or a small amount of cheese on them can replace the sour cream and bacon you may be used to.

We add veggies to every meal, including breakfast (egg scrambles or yam and egg scrambles). If hungry between meals we eat almonds…

  • Breakfast seems to be the hardest meal of the day. There are only so many eggs in the world, eh? We will frequently eat leftovers for breakfast, make yam scrambles and veggie and egg scrambles. You can fit a lot of veggies in with 1 or 2 eggs. Do allow myself a piece or two of bacon a week, very filling and satisfying.…
