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.

01/29/14 LUNCH

Me and Gianna split a banana and some grapes.
Then I made some tuna salad.

2 cans of tuna:


A little mayo, a little relish


A little olive oil


Mix it all up in a bowl. Spooned some in a bowl for Gianna, added half an avocado, and a few stalks of broccoli from dinner the other night then mixed it all up again.

As for me, I had a salad. Started with a handful of leafy greens, added the rest of the tuna salad, and one red pepper:




One and a half avocados and some homemade salad dressing. I make my salad dressing from the olive oil and vinegar shown above. Super simple and tasty. 2 parts olive oil, one part vinegar.



CAVEATS:
Canned tuna isn't the best way to eat fish so, we don't do it too often. We don't eat more than a couple cans of tuna per month. The mayo has soybean oil it it. Soy is bad. Again, we only eat mayo once in a great while. I need to FINALLY make some homemade mayo.
