1st day of keeping paelo food diary
To keep myself accountable to myself and my little blog I've decided to recall and start recording what I may eat in a day. Anything I know not to be paleo I'll highlight in red but feel free to point out anything that I may not have noted or adaptions I could make.
So, today I had:
- For breakfast omlette made with 2 eggs, with peas and 1/4 of a small onion caramelized in a little coconut oil.
- I was at work today so no lunch but a handful of pecan nuts.
- In the evening I had salad with baby leaf lettuce, cucumber and a tomato salsa salad (tomato, spring oinion and tons of fresh coriander). Dressed with a red pepper pate (blended 1 red pepper, 1 clove garlic, pumpkin seeds, 1 tbsp cold pressed olive oil and pepper).
- Snacked in the evening on 3 dates and more pecans probably another handful (I have small hands).
Basically a veggie paleo day and the following is NOW very unusual as I finished the day with a 100 gm chocolate bar!!!! Nooooooooo...
Dear blog - I'm working again tomorrow so I'll have to revisit this then.
You can't eat peas raw?
I'm surprised to see that they don't qualify. Your tomato salsa and the red pepper pate sound lovely.

Yes I know it's weird isn't it - i don't get it - I guess that's why I let them in. I suppose they could be a bit carby. But most literature I've read about the Caveman diet says no peas.
Mmmm, the pate is scrummy and with that I don't miss out on a salad dressing.
