  1. But What CAN You eat??

    Thursday, February 17, 2011


    With all the "forbidden" foods on The Whole30 list, I thought I would round up all of the yummy I eat as well as some of my favorite recipe resources.


    Breakfast:
    • Berries with coconut milk and almond slivers 
    • Black coffee (sometimes I drop in some coconut milk and cinnamon) 
    • Figs with whole roasted almonds and banana

    Lunch:
    • Dinner leftovers
    • Deli meat roll-ups with homemade mayonnaise and lettuce
    • Hard-boiled eggs with baby carrots, whole roasted almonds, and fruit
    • tuna salad over greens or stuffed in a pepper 
    • egg salad on a bed of lettuce with grape tomatoes

    Dinner:
    • pan-seared steaks with spinach, avocado, and bacon salad and homemade dressing
    • roasted whole chicken with spinach, pineapple, and bacon salad and homemade dressing
    • ground beef with peppers, avocado, and tomatoes
    • chicken with steamed frozen veggies or roasted green beans and no-sugar-added applesauce
    • eggplant Parmesan, without the Parmesan or breading (with this recipe, I could have eaten the whole pan in one sitting -- phenomenal!)
    Snacks:
    • pecans, pistachios, or almonds
    • avocado with salt and pepper
    • Larabars or dried fruit
    • baby carrots
    • zucchini and yellow squash slices with homemade dressing or sugar-free dijon mustard
    • apples with sugar-free almond butter
    • post-workout: sweet potato with almond butter or topped with nutmeg, cinnamon, and coconut oil
    Favorite Sites for Recipes:
    • The Clothes Make the Girl - every recipe so far has been FULL of flavor and relatively easy
    • Everyday Paleo - great ideas for snacks and lunch, which are the two "mealtimes" during which I struggle for satisfaction and quelling the sugar craving. Great podcasts, too!
    • The Food Lover's Primal Palate - I cannot WAIT to try the desserts once sweeteners (like honey and maple syrup) can make their way off the forbidden list!
