Everyday Paleo Lifestyle and Fitness!!

Over the past several months, Jason Seib and I have been working together to create EPLifeFit, in hopes that this will be the missing link for many of you on your paleo journey.  As trainers, we are both incredibly passionate about fitness and how it should be made to fit into a paleo lifestyle and we both have been frustrated and concerned that we simply could not give you exactly what you need; beyond some futile suggestions and blogs written in the form of begging folks to lift weights and get moving.  Of course the questions keep coming; how do we do it, what do we do, what do we need, where do we go?

Jason and I both have families with three children, dogs, chickens, after school functions, before school functions, businesses to run, and lives to live and we know how hard it can be to make this lifestyle work AND add in a fitness plan, so we created Everyday Paleo Lifestyle and Fitness which is designed to work for anyone and the answers are now literally at your fingertips.

EPLifeFit is not just about fitness, it’s a community, a support network, a way to access Jason, myself, my husband who is an award winning chiropractor and mobility expert, as well as a team of knowledgable moderators simply by opening up your computer.

EPLifeFit  is also about lifestyle and nutrition, a way to access information that before we simply did not have the ability to give to you; but now we can. I could go on and on but instead, please go check out Everyday Paleo Lifestyle and Fitness for yourself, see all that it has to offer, and once you join, we’ll see you there, ready to help.

As always, Enjoy!

Eating paleo is just that, meat and veggies, not too complex when it comes right down to it, and the good news is – boring is not a part of this lifestyle. Meat and veggies can be put together in at least 10 trillion different ways, and getting creative is a small task compared to oh, I don’t know, being really really unhealthy from eating a standard American diet?  So, here’s a recipe that is an example of eating paleo, keeping it creative and fun, but so insanely easy that complaining is simply out of the question!!

Enjoy!

Meat n’ Veggies

2 lbs thinly sliced steak of your choice (we used sirloin – a quick tip for easily slicing the meat – let it defrost in your fridge for about 4-5 hours or until it’s still a bit frozen in the middle, it’s easier to get those thin slices when the meat is not too soft)

1 red onion thinly sliced

2 small Japanese eggplants diced

1 small red, yellow, and green bell pepper sliced

3 cups of fresh chopped basil

4 tbsp olive oil

2 – 3 tbsp dried oregano

1 tbsp red chili flakes

2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Sea salt and black pepper to taste.

In a large soup pan add the olive oil and all the veggies except for the basil.  Stir fry until the onions and bell peppers begin to soften (about 5-7 minutes). While the veggies are cooking, add the thinly sliced steak to a separate large skillet over medium heat.  Cook the steak for about 5 minutes or until almost cooked all the way through, the steak slices should still be a little bit pink in the middle.  Add all the spices to the steak except for the balsamic vinegar.  Stir the steak and spice mixture together and add the meat to the large soup pan with the veggies.  Stir in the balsamic vinegar and the basil and cook together for another 2-3 minutes.

We served this dish with a huge green salad of organic lettuce, 1 diced avocado, 1 sliced cucumber, about 1/2 a cup of shredded purple cabbage and broccoli slaw, and dressed it with about 1/2 a cup of sun dried tomatoes packed in olive oil and a little bit of balsamic vinegar.  We also made some Crispy Baked Okra.

Enjoy!

Here are a couple of super easy recipes and a picture of a quick snack that I go to often when in a hurry…

Breakfast Scramble

1/2 cup of marinated artichoke hearts

1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes

1 sliced red bell pepper

1/2 sliced red onion

6-8 stalks of asparagus

6 eggs

olive oil

Saute all veggies and sun dried tomatoes in olive oil until the asparagus is still crisp but tender.  Add eggs and scramble together.  I made this for myself and my two little ones.  If it was the whole family I would have doubled the recipe… 

Spinach Salad

2 giant handfuls of organic spinach

3 hardboild eggs diced

4 strips of bacon crumbled

1/2 cup of roasted red peppers diced

1 organic apple diced

olive oil

small drizzle of red wine vinegar

1 tsp dried dill

black pepper to taste

Toss all ingredients together and enjoy!
