Hey everyone! This is a blog where I will post my family's "paleo" meals. The paleo diet is garden vegetables (especially greens), lean meats, little starch, nuts and seeds, and no sugar.



We really like this diet and it makes us feel great! My sisters sometimes ask when we're going to be done eating like this, and somone responds by saying that we're never going to stop eating like this as a lifestyle. Although sometimes (it's probably more than sometimes) we don't follow it as strictly as we should. We like sweets!! Happy reading!

Mexican-Paleo... (kind of :)

Last night we had a mexican-paleo dish. My mom cooked chicken in the crockpot all day so by the end, it was easy to shred. Then she made salsa. Fist, she put half an onion, two cloves of garlic, a handful of cilantro, half a red pepper, squoze two key limes, and half a bottle of drained, homecanned tomatoes into the blender. As she blended it, she added some of the tomato juice because it was a little dry.
This recipe is better with fresh tomatoes, but we didn't have any! This recipe was also doubled.
While she was making the salsa, I cut up some fresh lettuce. So we would put lettuce
on our plate first, then some shredded chicken and top it with salsa. It was very filling and healthy!
