Today marks the beginning of another Performance Nutrition Challenge at my gym, Crossfit Rubicon! This means I’ll be back to eating strictly clean without all those yummy cheat days I’ve been enjoying of late. If you want to be amazed at yourself and what the “Paleo”/”Primal” diet can do for you — you ought to join us. It’s not too late to sign-up!
All meals are paleo/primal or paleo adaptable.
Monday — Red Wine Marinated London Broil with Salad and broccoli
Tuesday — Sloppy Joes (minus the bun) + Roasted Asparagus + Sauteed Mushrooms
I like this Rachel Ray version, tho I skip the brown sugar and Worcestershire. Here’s another Paleo version. I’ll probably do a blend of the two recipes.
Wednesday — Jalapeño Dijon Grilled Chicken + Sweet Potato Fries + Salad
Thursday — Shrimp Tacos + Guacamole
Skip the sour cream sauce and sub a lettuce wrap for the tortilla
Friday — TBD Kabobs + TBD Slaw Salad
I will be making Patio Daddio’s Souvlaki, if I can confirm that using white wine is challenge approved. If not, I’ll do another kabob recipe, like this or this.
Paleo Snacks
Now that I need to make sure I don’t cheat during the day, I will make sure to have some of this food on hand:
* My Favorite Salsa — awesome on scrambled eggs, or as a snack with cut up veggies
* Sweet Potato Chips — I haven’t made these yet but hope to soon.
* Almonds — a handful of raw almonds will stave off the munchies
