Paleo & Bulking

[xxiv]

Save yourself some money and make your own.

I'll fire some up and see how it goes.

I'm a little sad that I wasn't asked about this.

Bulking on Paleo is the epitome of a clean bulk. Remember, think calorie dense foods/sides like fried potatoes in EVCO, chicken thighs, bacon, avocados, etc. A meal of 8 oz of chicken thighs, 10oz of red potatoes in 2 Tbsp EVCO, an avocado, and a piece of fruit is well over 1200-1400kcals and is packed with nutrients.

I might make some this weekend too.
Need to find coconut flour.

Just made some coconut flour muffins. Then I ate them all.

Pretty good, denser than regular muffins, but taste fine.

Better go bake some more

Just wanted to give y'all an update.

I got some of that Earth Balance Coconut and Peanut Butter Spread.... This stuff is freaking delicious!! I was literally going to sit there and eat it out of the jar but this tiny ass jar was like 5-6 dollars. So I only add 2 tbsp's to my shake. lol. But i'm gonna love around and see if I can find it for cheaper cause this shit is awesome.

I also grabbed some Earth Balance Soy Free Butter.... I haven't had butter in a long time so I can't say it tastes just like butter... but I don't think you would be able to taste the difference. I made some turkey burgers tonight.. Threw some Rice Cheese(also got this today, Very good btw) on top and some soy free butter. Damn this was soo good!!

I missed eating like this... Paleo, I'm backkkk!!

BTW, Yes, I know peanuts are not paleo... but that doesn't stop my girl from eating them. hahaha. But seriously, I'm gonna switch back and forth between peanut and almond butter.

[markam]

Regardless that peanuts are or aren't Paleo, I switched to Almonds as I had read negative things about peanuts.

If you guys haven't had it try cashew butter. GET SOME!!
That's stuff is really really good.
Hazelnut butter is really good too and hazelnut and cashew butter mixed together is really good.

Sorry, but have to say that cashew butter is really quite vile, with hazelnut a close second. Much prefer Almond butter, but each to their own. Lol.

Sure you weren't smoking something?

Really???
The cashew butter I've ate is so rich and has a sweet taste to it, but damn its good.
Hazelnut butter is nice because it never gets solid and stays spreadable, plus it taste good.
Most likely its just different brands because I've had natural PB that I could barely choke down and I love me some PB.

If you see almond butter with roasted of toasted flax in it grab a jar and be prepared for some great tasting nut butter.

Yep. When I want a healthy treat after a meal I have a spoon on almond butter. Haven't spread on anything for a long time, just eat it straight out the jar.

Just waiting to see if my latest coconut bread is going to be any good. Always best when I stick to recipes, but I never learn.
