ou really can't beat a bloody rare, grass- fed filet mignon.  Because it's such a fabulous cut, it really doesn't need anything fancy as far as preparation.   While I'll come up with all sorts of marinades for less expensive cuts, like flank steak, which I LOVE, too, somehow it seems offensive, almost, to do […]

Nell, I noticed that you eat a lot of fruit and include it in your meal plans.  What role does it play other than satisfying a sweet tooth?  I'm satisfied with just eating the protein, veggies and fats and I workout one hour per day.  -Cherie Great question- and thanks for the blog topic!  Yes, […]

The other day after a workout, I had a quick chat with another athlete about, guess what?  How to be a Paleo Endurance Athlete!  (One of my favourite topics…) She was surprised to hear that I actually cook some of my food! Wow! Understandable, though, if one hasn't read The Paleo Diet Book(s), that the mere name […]

This recipe is based on one from a dear friend, whose family has made their secret recipe for generations! While their version called for Reggiano Parm and day old bread crumbs from home made Rosemary Foccacia, my rendition was perfectly Paleo and really didn't leave anything to be desired in the taste department! She shared […]

The easiest […]

I do pride myself in doing a great job in allocating exactly how much of any given food I need when I'm doing my grocery shopping.  I time it such that when it's time to do the shopping the following week, I'm literally down to nearly nothing, and nothing goes to waste. Sometimes, however, I […]

As much as I love my raw kale, if it's a colder day outside, or you're serving something that simply doesn't suit that dish, here's another great option! Saute garlic in olive oil in a dutch oven over medium. Add some diced plum tomatoes. Add some washed, spun-dry kale that you've torn manually. Stir, add […]

I enjoyed a lovely Paleo, Persian meal the night before last… super easy to order some of the things literally off the menu without making ANY permutations!  Other dishes required little doctoring, nothing more than, "No yogurt, please" and "grilled veggies in lieu of rice!" Chicken Barg Kebab Mediterranean Salad – herbs, cucumber, tomato, red […]
