THE PALEO DIET - GREAT RECIPE EXAMPLES BY OLESYA NOVIK
The "Paleolithic Diet" refers to a hunter-gatherer type diet, where all processed, unnatural foods are completely eliminated, and everything consumed consists of animal proteins (anything one would be able to "hunt), and vegetables/fruits/plants (anything one would be able to "gather."). This allows its follower to stay satisfied, often eating more food than ever before, while remaining very lean and often gaining strength and muscle.
We'll discuss this diet in detail in another article, but in this one, I'd like to share three of my favorite recipes that are fully compliant with the diet. All of the following are beneficial for the body in many different ways. They're brimming with vitamins, and will speed up your metabolism as they provide you with plenty of energy - all while tasting absolutely amazing. Enjoy!
Roast Pumpkin with Red Onions and Rosemary
Ingredients: 1/2 Butternut pumpkin, seeded and sliced 4 Red onions, peeled and sliced 4 Tbsp Fresh rosemary leaves, chopped 4 Tbsp Olive oil 2
Directions: Pre-heat the oven to 350 F.
Line your baking sheet with foil, place pumpkin, onion, and rosemary leaves on the baking tray, and coat with oil.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until pumpkin is easily pierced with a fork and the onions have browned. Serve and enjoy! Makes four servings.
