With every new "diet" or eating style, it seems there's a giant list of what not to do. You're told exactly what you should not be eating, & then you're wondering "What's left?" My favorite thing about the Paleo eating style is the giant list of amazing foods that you should eat. Once you get a feel for what those foods are, & in what quantity you should be eating them, putting together meals becomes so amazingly simple. And when you get comfortable with the lifestyle is when you can get creative. Cooking (and eating) should be fun!
So here's my little guide of what foods to focus on, and in what quantities. I hope you find this helpful; and once you get to know it, come back for recipe ideas using these simple, flavorful, & nutrient-dense foods.
Meat
High-quality lean meats should make up the largest part of your diet, and should be present in each meal.
Grass-fed beef, wild-caught fish & seafood, free-range poultry & eggs.
