Diana has a whole chapter on breakfast foods in Paleo Lunches and Breakfasts on the Go Get up five minutes earlier, scramble some eggs Make a double batch of sausage with some meat and herbs/spices and you have meat for breakfast ready to go for the week On days where you have a little bit more time, make a big batch and use the leftovers throughout the week (i.e. pancakes) Every weekend Stacy and Matt make a batch of soup and Stacy has that daily Other make ahead meals: egg muffins, frittata, poached eggs, porridge, grain-free granola, bars, muffins (27:00) Jane - What breakfast dish is quick, easy and satisfying enough to keep hunger at bay until lunch time? Is BulletProof coffee recommended? Diana suggests eating more food, try more eggs - and a cup of coffee shouldn't be a problem Diana finds that fruit stimulates hunger, be careful with the fruit intake in the morning Stacy finds that vegetables are key to feeling satiated through the morning Don't use coffee to fill a nutrient void It is safe to consume that much fat in your coffee, but if you are lactose intolerant your body will not handle lactose - try ghee with your coconut oil (try the Pure Indian Foods brand) Learn to understand your hunger cues and eat when you are hungry (40:57) Anne - What foods/meals can I suggest to those who will be dropping off meals once our baby is born? Diana suggests sending recipes for ideas - link to blog posts, send pins Or keep it really simple with rotisserie chicken, plain mashed potatoes, basic vegetable dishes Don't be afraid to speak up about your intolerances, even to handle via email while expressing your gratitude, most the time people just need a little bit of education - or ask the organizer for feedback on how the group would respond to the unique situation Select recipes that are basic and don't require a lot of hard to find ingredients Make sure they are affordable and easy to put together Everyone could chip in for a paleo on the go meal service like Pete's Paleo (53:37) Jan - what kind of binders can be used to hold turkey burgers together? What do you recommend for seasonings? Try some other burger recipes, like 50/50 burgers or Citrus Pork burgers from Beyond Bacon, and recipes focused around red meat Try seasoning with horseradish, cumin, tarragon, sage Check out the Flavor Bible Nom Nom Paleo also has an abundance of seasoning recipes Chicken and turkey are high in omega 6's, so you want to watch your intake - try to stick to four legged animals Eggs and almond flour can be used for binding, but a fatty cut of meat will do the trick Use squashes to replace pasta, and cauliflower to replace rice (1:06:28) Patrick - how do you afford eating paleo? How do you set a budget? Rethink how you buy food, get a chest freezer and buy meat in bulk T
