[quote=Anonymous]14:01 again here and just to give you an example of what I ate & enjoyed while cooking primal (and looking this stuff up really is inspiring me to go back to it) -

For a special anniversary dinner, I made masala filet mignon, carrot ginger soup, roasted brussel sprouts, and strawberry goat cheese mixed green salad with home-made balsamic vinegrette.

On a typical day though, I'd have eggs & bacon for breakfast. On weeks I was really organized, I'd cook a crust-less quiche ahead of time and on weekends, I made a paleo pumpkin pancake thing. For lunch, I'd do leftovers. For dinner, some favs were grilled chicken with roasted brussel sprouts + side cheese plate for dessert; taco salad; any tomato-based curry served over grilled eggplant; any coconut-milk based curry served over roasted squash; and cauliflower-based pizza. We were getting a farm share at the time and I'd build our menu around the vegetables of the week, since we're get such large shares of them.

It was actually really satisfying and delicious and healthy. I had never realized how redundant a normal diet is until you start having to substitute the starchy-bulk for vegetables. [/quote]
