Dinners for us are mostly a meat (salmon, chicken, pork, steak, etc.) and veggies. I try to do 1-2 crock-pot meals a week and 1-2 meatless meals a week. I also do 1 non-primal meal each week. This is usually something I can double and freeze, like lasagna rolls, or it's tacos (not gonna lie, it's usually tacos). I plan out dinners each Sunday then do my grocery shopping based on what I need. Lunches for me and M are either leftovers of dinner or salads. I don't typically plan out breakfast. M doesn't eat it and I'm good with eggs and fruit. But this weekend I decided to expand my primal horizons and try some paleo/primal baking.
My first attempt was banana bread from this recipe I found on Pinterest: http://robbwolf.com/2011/04/21/recipe-paleo-banana-bread/
It was...different. The recipe says to bake a loaf pan for 30 minutes. Mine wasn't ready then. I ended up baking it for almost an hour then stopped because the edges were going to burn. It was still rather moist in the middle. J and I ate some, but we weren't very impressed. Well, this morning I decided to get it out of the fridge and toast it and see how it was. Turns out it's much better the next day. I put some butter on mine and had 2 slices. J just finished off his 3rd piece, walnuts and all! Love when that kid gobbles stuff up. So overall, it's a pretty good substitute for regular banana bread, but next time I make it I'll bake it at night and have it the next morning.
Next up...paleo pancakes!
