A dilemma that I'm facing with the Paleo diet is the lack of sweet snacks, I'm a sweet fiend and I'm struggling with the concept of eating veg sticks and fruit for a snack. For my breakfast I decided to make a sweet smoothie with the hopes of getting sweet cravings out my system for the day (it's nearly 12 and I'm content- so far so good).
If you don't like sweet flavours then this might not be for you:
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 banana
• 2 TBSP of shredded coconut
• 1 TBSP honey
The smoothie contains 275 calories - I get all my nutritional information from MyFitnessPal, add me- evie1992@hotmail.co.uk.
For my lunch I've made a tuna, avocado and egg salad. I was going to make tuna fish cakes for my lunch but by 9pm last night making a salad was much more appealing. (I make my breakfast and lunch the night before as I work 9-5).
I hope I'm not presenting a Paleo lifestyle as just boring veg, fruit and meat dishes, there's so much more exciting recipes, such as Paleo cakes! For the time being I'm keeping it simple so I can properly get my head around what can and can't be eaten!
