Nutrition is the foundation of great health and great athletic performance, but it’s often an area that people struggle with. It’s hard to know what to eat and how much to eat. It’s hard to meal plan, and it’s hard to find the time to cook. There are just all sorts of barriers to overcome. But, just like the physical challenges we overcome in Crossfit, the challenges associated with eating clean can easily be conquered.
A killer blog post is in the works to give you the ins and outs of making this eating clean process as painless as possible. But, to tide you over, we’d like to share some really excellent fresh paleo recipes that you may not have tried yet! Pick one out to try next week…you won’t regret it!
Grown Up Chicken Soup
I always present this kale, sweet potato, and chicken stew from Hunter Beless as “Grown Up Chicken Soup”. 100% of the time, it is a crowd pleaser. It feels filling and hearty, but also light and clean at the same time!
“Chick-Fil-A” Nuggets
This is a great appetizer, snack, or meal. The pickle juice makes the chicken uber-moist, and the seasoning mixture makes this dish exceptionally tasty.
Sriracha Lime Chicken Skillet
This recipe is so quick and so flavorful. Maybe ten minutes of total work…marinate the chicken, put it in the oven, and eat!
Chocolate Chili
Cocoa powder in a warm and comforting chili? Yes. Please. Enjoy this easy one pot recipe!
Spinach & Pork Meatloaf
Who knew eating paleo could be so decadent?! This spinach packed meatloaf is divine with some tomato basil sauce on top!
Avocado Tuna Wraps
These wraps can be whipped up in a matter of minutes. The tasty filling can easily be kept in the fridge and eaten with a spoon!
Spinach Bacon Salad
Like salads? This Spinach Salad from the Pioneer Woman is so savory and paleo!
Ratatouille
This French dish is extremely hearty. I will warn you that it takes a lot of time to prep those veggies…but it is so worth it!
Ethiopian Cabbage
This easy-to-saute dish is so delicious, and it has quickly become part of my weekly veggie prep. It does require quite a few spices, but it’s worth buying them for this rich veggie dish!
Bacon Wrapped Sweet Potato Fries
Bacon and sweet potato are two of the tastiest items permitted on the paleo diet. Why not combine them both for a decadent appetizer?
