This is a list of Paleo-style meals we've cooked. Posts will link to recipes I've found that are paleo or paleo-adaptable.
Eggs are a breakfast staple in our house — we eat A LOT of eggs. For a long time, I always made my eggs scrambled — it was what I was used to and thought it was easy. Then became a fan of omelets and made them for a while. I’ve recently discovered fried...

This recipe is neither Irish, nor rice, but it IS green — naming it shamrock rice is an intentional pun. Sunday was St. Patrick’s day, a date celebrated around the world to commemorate one of Ireland’s patron saints. Kids love setting leprechaun traps and wearing green and all that fun stuff.

For a long time, Trader Joe’s only sold light Coconut milk, and not a full fat version. For a Paleo eater who loves fat, this was a bummer. Imagine my surprise when I spotted this item on an endcap for new products: Coconut Cream — $1.49 at Trader Joe’s Ingredients: coconut extracted, sodium carboxy...

What’s nice is they don’t contain added sugar/sweetners, although the dates bring plenty of sweet to the table....

This was a super quick and easy dinner I threw together on a busy Sunday night. I thawed 2lbs of (grass-fed) ground beef and then added 4-5 Tbsp of homemade onion soup mix. Mix by hand, then form into patties (wider and thinner is better than thicker). Cook on the grill over medium heat...

Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry with Cauli-Rice The stir fry recipe came from Nourishing Origins: http://nurishingorigins.wordpress.com/2011/11/30/coconut-curry-shrimp-bowl/ My only substitution was to use asparagus instead of green beans. The Cauli Rice recipe came from Elana’s Pantry: http://www.elanaspantry.com/cauliflower-rice/ Verdict: Both dishes were good and I would make them again. I really liked the cauliflower rice, the kids...
