Clever name, eh? Not really. There is no longer any item on the planet that is truly Paleo because guess what: nature evolves. At any rate, let's go ahead and say that this blog is about CLEAN, non-processed recipes that might sometimes be called Paleo by some people. Enjoy!

Steak and Scramble
Yes that is Fillet Mignon! No, I am not filthy rich! That's leftover Fillet from dinner a few nights ago. There was a sale so I bough extra to have for lunch and breakfast - got be creative on Paleo!
If you use fresh steak then simply season and grill, or pan fry, to your liking - I would recommend rare-medium rare. For the scramble: in a pan with just a touch of grapeseed oil begin to cook a mixture of spinach, onions, and peppers (I use frozen vege because it's convenient before I start to train Austen). Once the onions start to clarify add a few whisked eggs - 2-4 depending on how much your protein needs are. I garnished my breakfast with a few sliced fresh figs.
Enjoy!

Heirloon Fig and Walnut Salad with Agave Vinaigrette
Throw chopped heirloom tomato, sliced fresh fig, crushed walnuts, and ground flaxseed on top of a bed of mixed greens. Make the dressing by combining 1 tbs grapeseed oil, 1 tbs olive oil, fresh ground pepper, cumin or allspice (but just a touch), basil, and a 1/2-1 teaspoon of Agave nectar. Mix well until the ingredients are combined well then add just a splash of coconut milk and continue to mix until the coconut milk and the oils blend into a very light cream vinaigrette.
Enjoy!
