Jamie's Thoughts: What to do When You're Sick on Paleo

Comfort foods you normally eat when sick and have a fever aren't Paleo.  Saltine crackers.  Nope. Chicken noodle soup.  Nah.  Not that either.  Even orange juice and ginger ale don't work on Paleo. While bacon might be wonderful for adding flavor to so many dishes, it isn't something you'd want to eat when you are in the throes of a raging, appetite -suppressing fever.  So, just what should you eat when you are sick and trying to stay Paleo?    

Jamie's Thoughts: Paleo is a Journey, Not a Destination

Fagan Eats Paleo Recipe: Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies with Banana Flour

Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies Made with Banana Flour!  Yum!  

I always like to share my inspiration for a recipe.   This banana flour cookie recipe came about because I don't tolerate almond flour well.  I've made Against All Grain's Real Deal Chocolate Chip Cookies many times.  And they are delicious, but it's always apparent to me that nut flour does not work for me.  Plus, I could never get the cookies to come out to a smooth texture using the nut flour.  And so, I decided to create a recipe of my own.

Folks:  Pico de gallo is so easy to make, it's almost illegal to buy it pre-made from the grocery store.  Seriously.  The few minutes you take to buy the fresh produce and chop the veggies yourself are paid back to you in fresh burst of flavor cool and spicy flavor.  I love pico de gallo.
