Made some turkey burgers that I put on spring mix and had bacon and steamed broccoli as well. Very good. I also had a gigantic glass of milk because I like it, it isn't paleo but I don't really stick to one thing entirely but rather try to just generally eat healthy.

Anyone looking forward to the Paleo Summit?

Props to Sean Croxton. He's come a long way from the beginning.

I wonder if they serve this shit at Brown's games, let's ask BR, our most diehard Browns "fan"

OH WAIT.

Ordered 40 lbs of GF beef, should be getting it this Sunday. Can't wait.

Tonight had a pound of it, slow rendered in coconut oil, waited until it was slightly brown and then poured it into another skilled over top some broccoli and 2 Oriental sweet potatoes. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes and the veggies soak in the fat. Amazing!

I'm picking up 220 lbs of grassfed beef and some whole chickens tomorrow from a farmer I went to high school with. Hoping the snow holds off as the trek to Lodi will be a long one.

Jealous. Really wanting to make some beef broth before the "winter" ends...then use it as a base for a huge pot of chili.

Enjoyed the Day 1 presentations by Mark Sisson and Diane Sanfilippo. Diane makes great points about the importance of application and flexibility instead of just having it be another program you have to follow religiously.

Keep us updated on this. Thanks!

Day 2 was pretty good. Jack Kruse is a great speaker and IMO, has a groundbreaking topic that has really gained some ground lately regarding Leptin. Sarah Fragoso is always pleasant to listen to, but for myself, someone without kids, I'm not always interested. Erwan Le Corre was third and he's definitely got some great results with MovNat. I'm not a fan of all out adoption, but it's obviously something valuable to dabble with if you have the locations to do so.

Day 3 is really up my alley. More into the science of everything and Paul Jaminet is perfect. Thomas O'Bryan is the best out there regarding Gluten and digestion, and then Matt Stone to basically debunk the Paleo Diet all together.

Best presentation today was Mat Lalonde. If you're really into the science, he's one of the best.

I started paleo eating this past weekend. Had some almond flour/pumpkin pancakes and some eggplant/sausage dish that were both ridiculously good. Can't believe how many good recipes there are.


Tonight I am going to try the almond crusted chicken and Friday will hopefully make this pizza:

Will also try to make the blueberry protein things that I think justin posted earlier.

What other recipes besides those already posted does everyone enjoy?

I can eat the same shit and still be cool with it. So my paleo recipes are not exciting. My typical dinners are eggs + sausage, eggs+sweet potatoes or protien and small salad. Lunch is usually a big ass salad.

My protiens are

1. Sausages chicken and pork from good butcher.
2. Chicken baked at 250 for about an hour depending on the size with come coconut oil and salt and pepper
3. Eggs overeasy in grassfed butter
4. Steaks grilled with a rub.
5. Hamburger grilled with salt and pepper
6. Lambburger grilled with salt and pepper
7. Cottege cheese

Veg.
1. Sweet potatoes (baked or diced and sauteed until crispy in cocnut oil)
2. Raw carrots
3. Spinach and spring mix 50/50 with onions sunflower seeds olive oil and vinegar sometimes with a protien and avacado for a big ass salad.

Nuts
1. almonds

Same with me. Even though I have a couple of recipe books, the most exotic I get is paleo protein pancakes and Sisson's Paleo Bison Chili. Other than that I keep it very simple. I'm a creature of habit and can eat the same things day after day.

Cottage cheese is ok?

I don't eat it.

Processed? Yes.
Added sugar? Usually.
Problems associated with dairy? Yes.

I'd avoid it. You can get a lot better bang for your buck.

I'm headed out today, going to try to find some alternative fermented foods. Kimchee and Sauerkraut are awesome. Starting to get warmer out too, going to start undertaking some homemade 'Kraut here shortly!

Got ya, didn't think it was but saw that OB had it listed.

Had paleo pad thai for dinner. Really fucking good. I'll post the recipe if anyone is interested.

Here is what ours looked like:

Over Processed? It's just milk and curds

Sugar? I haven't come accross an unflavored brand that add it

Problems with Dairy? You should avoid if so.

Preservatives? Guar Gum and other
shit can show up in the indredients see below.

Organic Cultured Pasteurized Skim Milk, Organic Pasteurized Cream, Organic Nonfat Milk, Citric Acid, Salt, Organic Guar Gum, Organic Locust Bean Gum, Acidophilus and Bifidus Cultures, Enzymes.

Your call but good source of Casien and good bacteria.

I don't eat it everyday but It doesn't cause me any inflamation.

The one thing rob wolff etc have never explained is why dairy is bad. Some people just can do it and they should avoid it, so everyone else should. That is their explaination.

MDA mentions it as a fine choice as well as cheese. Optimally you would get grass fed and raw cottege cheese and cheese.

[LEFT]Other good fats:
Organic yogurt and cottage cheese. These dairy products are typically easier to digest than cheese or milk. Be sure to get the sugar-free varieties of yogurt. Although dairy isn’t rich in Omega-3 fatty acids like fish or nuts, there are other valuable fats. And science reveals that the proportions of various fats in the diet are more important than any single fat. Fats work better together than alone

Another link where Sission reccomends cottege cheese.

Obviously it depends what type you buy. I'm talking your standard cottage cheese you find at Kroger. Look at the ingredients. There is always stuff added. It also depends on your goals. Obviously someone just starting and wanting to lose weight, avoid it like the plague. Trying to add muscle and can digest it, go for it.

Those are just the reasons I wouldn't consume it. However, outside of raw milk and grass-fed butter and cheese, I don't consume any dairy, ever. Dairy that's pasteurized (like cottage cheese), like I said, there are WAY better bang for your buck.
