Instead of doing a day in the life, I have managed to keep track of some of our random meals over the last few days. You might see a common theme in some of our meals which is due to the abundance of seasonal veggies that I have been receiving each week from my CSA (can you say summer squash??) So let’s get started!
I have had a few requests for a fish recipe so last night I threw this dinner together with what had in the house: some beautiful carrots from the GRUB farm, green onions, fresh ginger, and wild caught Mahi Mahi pieces from Trader Joe’s. I wish now that I had made more of everything, it turned out to be more of a snack for me and the boys instead of an actual dinner but it was delicious!! I’ll advise you now to double this recipe if you have a big family.
Fast Shrimp
I was so lucky to be at Robb Wolf’s Paleo Solution Seminar today, right here in Chico, CA! I met a wonderful group of people and of course the highlight being Robb’s seminar and hearing him make a whole lot of sense about this Paleo “Thang” (as Robb put it…)! After returning home to some hungry kids and a husband who so sweetly arranged a date night for us, I made some Fast Shrimp for the boys. Continue reading
Prosciutto Perfection
As many of you know who follow my blog I love to just grab what I have in the fridge and make a meal happen. I don’t like to think too hard unless I have to, especially when it comes to food! Here’s what John and I quickly threw together for lunch yesterday and we both loved it enough to blog about it. The boys also gave their stamp of approval when they devoured the leftovers for an after school snack! Continue reading
A FUN Salad
One thing I love about eating paleo; as long as you have some protein, veggies and some good fats anything is possible! For lunch yesterday I threw together a salad that was tons more fun than the standard lettuce and chicken. It was a “kitchen sink salad” of sorts, I tossed together everything in the kitchen but the kitchen sink! Continue reading
Sweetheart Scallops
John’s Tuesday schedule brings him home later than normal and the kids and I are always finished with dinner and getting ready for bed by the time he’s walking through the door. Tonight I made my normal Tuesday night Paleo Tacos which vanished into the bottomless pits which are my children, leaving none for dad! Continue reading
Before we get to the food, here’s a bit of fun trivia about this years super bowl! Aaron Rodgers, quarterback for the Green Bay Packers is a Chico, CA native. Yup, born and raised right here in my home town. Pretty cool considering how freaking hard it is to get in the NFL! So yes, we will be cheering on the Packers in hopes to see a hometown super star bring back the win. Continue reading
