On any given day a Paleo meal plan may include foods like vegetables, eggs, fresh
fruits, nuts, lean meats and seafood. Such a meal provides you with nutrients such
as phyto-nutrients, soluble fiber, antioxidants, carbohydrates and monounsaturated
fats.
When preparing a Paleo meal, you need to focus on poultry, red meat, fish, eggs,
nuts and seeds, vegetables and fruits. A small amount of honey, plant oils and dried
fruits can also be included in your meals. Avoid any processed food with artificial
ingredients, refined sugars, grains, salt and saturated fats.
Once you have made an effort to reduce your intake of packaged foods and grains,
then you are ready to start following a daily Paleo diet. Read on to see a sample daily
meal plan on the Paleo diet.
*Paleo breakfast
Eating simply is one of the basics of the Paleo diet; simply generally means that you
eat less food. For your breakfast you can prepare two scrambled eggs and turkey
bacon. This a good and hearty meal that can be combined with Paleo pancakes. You
can prepare a Paleo pancake by combining one cup of almond flour, three eggs, ¼
teaspoon of a vanilla extract and ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon. This will give you around
4 to 5 pancakes. You can also try spinach and tomato omelet together with
strawberries. If you like cereal for breakfast, nothing beats brown rice and almond
milk topped with a selection of berries or raisins.
NOTE: a number of new certified organic breakfast cereals are beginning to appear.
*Paleo lunch
You can try a protein-style hamburgers or a big salad. Begin with a combination of
greens, sliced carrots, sliced avocado, diced red pepper, raw mushrooms sliced,
chopped walnuts, diced spring onions, lemon juice and equal amounts of olive oil.
