Paleo Day 1 (of a 30 day "reset"):
You know what's great about loving to cook? It's a little easier to stay on a diet since we don't have to break habits of eating out or eating prepared dinners all the time.
Breakfast: We made Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes. I have to admit that these were just OK. The flavor was decent but they were so dense but I have an idea about how to fix that. With that being said, I'm going to wait to post that recipe until we've improved it.
Lunch: Turkey, Avocado, and Bacon Lettuce Wraps. I've posted a blog about these before because I love lettuce wraps instead of sandwiches. Check it out here if interested. Basically I just cut out the dairy by layering iceberg lettuce leaves with smashed avocado, sliced deli turkey, and a half of a piece of bacon. Plenty of flavor and salt to satisfy this girl.
Dinner: Italian Steak Faux "Pizza" and a Zucchini Ribbon Salad. I want to point out that this isn't really pizza because there is no CHEESE but I'm not really sure what else to call it. Any suggestions? It was pretty tasty. We're going to try it again with other flavor profiles too. I'm thinking a Mexican fajita, Paleo BBQ Chicken, and (if the Paleo Ranch is any good) a Buffalo Chicken Ranch version. We'll see!
Dessert: Fruit and Coconut Whipped Cream Trifle - IT WAS DELICIOUS. This is going to be a snack, dessert, what-have-you often in this household. Of everything today, the pineapple version was my favorite new recipe.
