When many people hear the world “chips” the next thing that pops into their mind is “potatoes.” As we all know here, however, chips can be made out of any number of vegetables. Parsnips, beets and rutabagas work well and as Diana pointed out with her snack recipe submitted to the Primal Blueprint Cookbook Challenge (current theme: Primal Snacks), so do zucchini and yellow squash.
Diana uses a dehydrator to make her chips. But since not all of us have a dehydrator, let’s start with the kitchen oven. Although we’ll be honest: making chips of any kind in an oven is tricky. To get a crispy, crunchy chip that isn’t burned, the slow method is best. And by slow, we mean practically a whole day at your oven’s lowest possible heat level.  Some people recommend leaving the door slightly cracked so air can circulate. If you don’t have that kind of […]

Following on DR’s recent posts on the Paleo diet we’ve decided to go the Paleo direction with my recipes from now on. Although I’m no expert in this style of food it’s kinda similar to the way I eat myself although I do love me my grains! For all you Paleo enthusiasts out there make sure you shoot me off some suggestions if you have any and we’ll go from there.
Today’s recipe is a simple little dish that I make which I have to say is pretty easy and very tasty and as you can see looks the business.
Steaming liquid:
6 fluid oz mirin
6 fluid oz sake
2 tbps fresh ginger – minced
Place all ingredients in medium saute pan. Heat gently to let the flavors infuse.
4 x 4oz black sea bass portions
Vegetable Spaghetti:
2 medium zuchini (courgette)
2 medium yellow squash
2 medium carrot
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken / veg. broth
Drizzle olive oil
S&P to taste

What Kind of Paleo are You?

Earlier this month, the NY Times ran an article entitled The New Age Cavemen and the City.
And it sent the Paleo/Primal/Caveman online community into a frenzy.
Never before had this niche community received such mainstream attention.
It’s too bad that the Paleos interviewed for the story came off as a bunch of New York hipster douchebags.
Now, instead of not knowing what Paleo is, people are going reference this article and assume that Paleo means:

Eating raw meat
Or running barefoot on New York streets
Except when we’re running around Central Park on all fours
Or throwing rocks at each other
Or eating with our hands
And my personal favorite – bloodletting

Bloodletting….seriously?
From now on, Paleo = Crazy-Ass New York Hipster Douchebag.
And that’s too bad.
Because if more people jumped on the Paleo bandwagon, we would see a drastic reduction in:

Obesity
Diabetes
Hypertension
Love Handles
Muffin Tops
Fat Kids
Fat Parents
Diet Menus at Taco Bell
you get the idea.

So, Now That I Have Convinced You To Reconsider Going […]

You’ve heard about the virtues of coconut oil over and over again and just last week we were extolling them again. You know its got a ton of saturated fat, may strengthen mineral absorption and is associated with improved blood sugar and insulin control. The rich flavor of coconut that goes along with it is just another added bonus for most of us. We know, however, there are some of you out there who love everything about coconut oil except the flavor.
If you don’t always want to feel like you’re heading off to the tropics when you cook with coconut oil, but you still want the health benefits, try making “coconut ghee.” Reader Jeanmarie mentioned that this was her favorite fat to use in pretty much every cooking situation, so we couldn’t help but try it ourselves. Coconut ghee is a blend of coconut oil and clarified butter (butter with […]

I want to start this post off and say that I love free thinkers and people who question things. I don't even care if I agree with 100% of what the person is talking about. Rebels make the world more exciting. I have spent the past hour over on Free the Animal and have been sucked in to Richard Nikoley's fantastic writing style. He has several great articles talking about a similar subject: That all successful diets are high fat diets. You will see exactly what he means by this in a second.

[I tried to find an appropriate photo for the topic of “high fat diets”, but those were all brutally boring. A ghost lady wearing a bikini instead? Someone needs to make a B movie with this theme!]
How Can a Low Fat Diet be Considered High in Fat?

Well…that is what sucked me in to one of Richard's articles. I […]

I knew going in this was going to be a tricky one, because dairy, especially raw and/or fermented full-fat dairy, resides in a Primal gray area. The literature, the evolutionary reasoning, and the anecdotal reports all unanimously point to sugar, cereal grains and legumes, processed foods, and industrial vegetable oils as being net negatives on the human metabolic spectrum, but dairy is somewhat different. The other Neolithic foodstuffs we can rule out because the science condemning them is fairly concrete and they weren’t on the menu 20,000 years ago. Heck, they weren’t just off the menu; they were basically unrecognizable as food in the raw state. Dairy, on the other hand, is a relatively recent food chronologically, but it is most assuredly and obviously a viable nutritive source in its raw form. It’s full of highly bioavailable saturated fat, protein, and carbs – in equal portions. You could conceivably survive on […]
