Food What's For Dinner Tonight?

Been back on my Paleo diet as allergies are just out of control. last night was Almond Crusted Salmon, Baked Sweet Potatoes, and Sauteed Spinach. Was pretty good, especially for a new recipe.

 

Tofu sautéd in vegetable broth with a dash of soy sauce, wild rice and steamed asparagus, string beans and broccoli.

Do you consume any dairy products on a Paleo diet?

 

Hi Misguided!

There is no dairy in Paleo. I have allergy/sensitivities to dairy/wheat/gluten, so this is a nice way to help try and avoid those foods in my diet.

From the Paleoplan.com website:

" The Paleo diet mimics the types of foods every person on the planet ate prior to the Agricultural Revolution (a mere 10,000 years or 500 generations ago). These foods (meats, seafood, organ meats, eggs, fresh vegetables and fruits, plus some nuts and seeds) are full of vitamins and minerals, antioxidants, fiber, beneficial fatty acids, and low-glycemic carbohydrates that promote good health. The Paleo diet doesn’t contain refined sugars and grains, dairy, trans fats, high-glycemic carbohydrates, and processed foods that often cause weight gain, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and many other health problems"

Hi back Amonkie,

Thank you for the answer. I didn't know what you all were allowed to eat.
I have allergy symptoms due to dairy, so I went one step further and went vegan. I also gave up all wheat/gluten, and all processed foods. If I eat it, it's because my woman or I made it. It works for me, so I'm happy.

 

There's a BBQ place in the town where S works. The veggies are sooo good and I like to eat their sauce on my veggies. Also, ALL the cornbread you can eat!!!

I will eat ALL the Cornbread.

Being pregnant is fun!

 

Steak, seasoned with garlic, pepper, a little salt, and broiled. Oven roasted potatoes, and green beans, plus french bread.

 

A weird combo but we had fresh fruit (melon, peaches, bananas, pluots and oranges and steamed vegetables (asparagus and green beans)

 

^^ That sounds delicious.

I don't know what's for dinner...we've fallen into the bad habit of going out if we stay late at work (and we stay late a lot.) I'm craving some fresh veggies. And cornbread.

 

Tonight we're having cheeseburgers, french fries and fruit salad. We've got little ones staying over tonight, so gotta serve something they'll like.

 

Protein spaghetti and homemade meat sauce. Kale salad. Peach sorbet and Jack Daniel's for desert.

 

um...

 

Burgers.

So many burgers.

 

our apt. complex is having a summer bbq. woohoo!
bbq chicken
potato salad
sliced tomatoes
fresh strawberries
...and cheetos.

now i will crack open my bottle of red, enjoy a couple of glasses while watching tattoo shows on netflix, get to bed early.
work 7-7 tomorrow.
friday, hit the road at 6am.
in other words, in the road trip zone.

 

So, our Costco now has an organic section and they are carrying TruRoots Ancient Grains pasta. Made with quinoa, brown rice, amaranth and corn so now I have a non gmo, non gluten pasta. We have tomatoes growing in our yard and will be making our own marinara sauce. It's going to be great!

 

Beer. Fuck food. Fuck Microsoft.

 

Just had an okay steak at the local hawker. They're new.

Their Mac 'n' Cheese side was better than the under seasoned steak but only just.

Tempted to wrestle my way into the kitchen and show 'em how it's done.

Going home for more homebrew.
