I tried. I really tried… but my waffle iron sucks, it’s not even mine… it’s my neighbors (I should probably give it back). If you use a cast iron skillet or a dutch oven and bake the sweet potatoes you can even get away with making this dish in one pot! You can also freeze this. Why pay for sweet potato puree when you can make it yourself? Because the diet relies so heavily on fresh vegetables and fruits, you can rest assured that you will be getting the nutrients your body needs. The caveman diet is generally considered free form due to the very few restrictions involved in the program. That means soy in any form (again, check the ingredients of ALL the foods you eat), lentils, black beans, pinto beans, red beans, peanuts (sub out your peanut butter with almond butter), white beans, garbanzo beans, you get the gist.

I know peanut flour isn’t readily available to many, so there is the paleo scrambled eggs friendly version which is more dense, but toasts really well too. We occasional have fresh-squeezed juices as a choice with our lunches as well. The “chips” have a lot of spice and taste great- just don’t expect the crispy chips you would get in a bag. With going paleo we had the rug pulled out from under us with regards to tacos and taco salad for that matter (no chips). The last time I tried to do strict pushups (a couple weeks before this challenge) I could only do 5 strict pushups without going to my knees. If this is of interest to you please take some time to read the 2 links and pro’s and cons below. In medium sized stock pot, add one tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and garlic and cook for about one minute on medium low heat.

Simmer for two hours, using a potato masher to break up the tomatoes as they cook. Next using a hand mixer beat the batter ingredients for 1 minute, this will help make a fluffier batter and better waffles. If normal waffles are a trigger food for you, I’d recommend avoiding this recipe during your Whole30. I wanted this first recipe to represent my culinary style and I think these Paleo Pumpkin Fig Muffins do the trick. With PaleoHacks, users will be able to get home, throw something together, and be at the table enjoying an amazing meal quickly, making sticking to the paleo lifestyle easier than ever. I have had to try and fail at many recipes to get the ones that work for our family, especially since I cannot use eggs as it is the number one offender in our house. When I post about recipes that the family likes, or specifically the boys like, I’m being 100% honest. The worst is when someone tells me that they’ve been accused of not being paleo because they use/eat/drink – wait for it… (these are good) – vinegar, salt, sweet potatoes, coffee and the list goes on. You want to look for “pastured” chickens who have eaten their natural diet….and good luck with that, lol.

As much as I wanted to dive into a block of cheese at the end of my 30 days, I didn’t want to waist all of that hard work. I used pork, but turkey sausage would work fine, and spicy sausage would be even better. Probably not. Well, the fact is that when our bodies become too warm or even hot, it’s difficult for us to relax or focus. Paleo Restart is a versatile, feature-packed product that’s also extremely easy to use, which means it’s more likely to be used. Paleo (pale -e -o) or Paleolithic is based on the caveman diet – sort of. Diet or the Keep It Simple Silly Diet. A unique and guilt-free lasagna that’s healthy, and that has a fantastic taste. One thing about me: I love my breads. Remove from food processor, add chocolate. Then remove from heat and let cool enough that you don’t scald yourself in the next step.
