Have you tried in vain to make meatballs out of your free-range turkey breast sans bread crumbs and failed miserably? Or, perhaps you tried your hand at a ‘healthy’ beef meatloaf made with extra-lean meat, but without torn, day-old bread and concluded that you simply cannot make a Paleo version of either? So not the […]

If you live anywhere in North America, chances are you’ve seen this brand or one of its affiliates (Bunny Luv and Cal-Organics) in your local grocery store.

Nell, I am really confused about what to eat and when. I think I have been doing a pretty good job on the Paleo diet, but I do not feel that balanced energy level throughout the day that I was hoping for. I am cooking at home with a nice variety of lean proteins, bringing […]

One of the most commonly asked questions amongst clients and blog readers alike is for my position on foods seen as healing, restorative and preventative and whether or not they are Paleo.
