Paleo Lately:
Last weekend, I cooked onion and apple together, mixed with finely chopped pecans and stuffed some porkchops. They liked that. Could throw in spinach & mushrooms too.
Made sauteed eggplant with tomatoes and basil. Would be good over spaghetti squash.
This w/e Pasta Fagioli: no beans or pasta – subbing Kale Cabbage Spinach & will throw in chicken. (Ok, so it has NO resemblance to pasta fagioli at all…I wonder if they’ll notice!)
Im also going to try spaghetti squash with sambucca/vanilla sauce (what’s that veg, anise that gives the sambucca flavor??).
My bananas are ripe enough to do the cookies this w/e too.

Please take a look at the height of the wall ball that SvW is throwing, as well as the range of motion with BF’s K2E.
Strive for that!
Nice job guys!

Thanks McCoy!
Made the paleo cookies today.
I used 1 c. walnuts, 1 c. pecans, 3/4 c almonds…. barely 1 c. unsweetened coconut, 1 tbspn vanilla (yeah this is pbly not paleo), 1 tbspn olive oil, 1 tbspn cinnamon, sprinkle of ginger. These are great!!!
Will make a batch of carrot cake treats next…

Ah thanks Sena! I think im going to go with fennel bulb…
I might even use THAT in the cookies; maybe with pistachios? If I slice these lengthwise and bake again – Paleo Biscotti!!

Deb, dried anise seeds will work better than fennel bulb for baking cookies.
Anise is a flowering plant used for its seeds (and making liquors like absinthe, sambuca, jagermeister), fennel is an herb with a root vegetable. They smell similar, but are completely different things.
I have a delicious baked cod with fennel and onion recipe, if you would like. It’s a zone recipe, but maybe it may fit into paleo? Let me know.
J9, The baking situation is out of control. Thumbprint cookies, bran muffins, banana bread, you name it! Nasty, filthy, starchy, sugary goodness… Diagnosis: “3rd trimester acute nesting”. Prognosis: “Grow wings and fly out the window”.
