When I talk to folks about food, and how my family and I eat paleo, they usually have a lot of questions. Some of the most common questions I get are:

- So then what DO you eat?
- How do you do breakfast?
- What does your daughter eat?

Hopefully those and other questions will be answered by this blog. I am far from an expert and we don't eat "strict" paleo all the time but, hopefully this blog will help folks realize that the paleo diet IS something that they can do all while shopping at normal food stores and preparing food with a normal, BUSY, schedule. There are plenty of online sources for paleo recipes, this will be different. I will document our day to day meals and snacks, grocery shopping, and eating on the go. I hope you find it inspiring and informative. Please feel free to comment.

Bacon, Cranberry, Brussel Sprouts

I made this the other day. We've been perfecting the recipe slowly over time... I cook the bacon 'til it's a little on the crunchy/dry side (it will soak up some moisture from the other ingredients later) then take it off and put it on a paper towel to drain. Then I roughly chop the sprouts, put them in a pan with some coconut oil and a little chicken broth. Cover them and let them cook/steam for a while. While they are cooking, I chop up the bacon and the turkey breast then throw them in there. Then crumble up the walnuts and add them along with the cranberries. Turn off the heat and let everything steam a little. Done... so, so good... I don't measure anything, just do it by sight. Next time, I'd like to try a little bit of spicy mustard. I think it would compliment the flavor of the sprouts nicely.
