Paleo Recipes
With the Paleo Diet, you’ll end up eating enormously diverse and bountiful meals that include all sorts of fruits, vegetables, meats, and seafood—many of which are rarely or never eaten on “normal” diets.
Throughout this book, I’ve been telling you how good this food is. In this chapter, I’m going to prove it. On the following pages you’ll find a wide variety of breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipes, as well as recipes for making Stone Age snacks and desserts, salt- and sugar-free sauces, dressings, salsas, and condiments to help you launch the Paleo Diet in your own kitchen.
