July 3 Paleo Lunch (Workout Day)
I figured I should start posting some examples of full meals that can be put together that fit within the Paleo Diet Meal Plan. This meal was lunch on a workout day. On days I workout, I reduce fat intake and bump up carbohydrates more than usual. This is for the extra fuel for my workout and to bump up my calories a bit.
Healthy Paleo Lunch
Here you can see I added mashed sweet potatoes which some would argue this is not Paleo. What I would tell these people is "Hey, I am trying to add muscle, not lose weight -- worry about youself". I have a goal in mind (of adding more muscle) so I am fueling that to happen with carbs such as sweet potatoes and rice. That is what the Paleo Diet Evolved is all about; combining the Paleo Diet with our specific goals to gain the physique we want! It is a blueprint for success not the 10 Commandments.
Back to the point - the meat here is Grass Fed Flank Steak - the same meat used for the Paleo Pinwheels. Since the flank steak is grass fed, it has a good omega 3 to omega 6 ration.
I simply seasoned the meat and put it on the stove with some grass fed butter. The egg is poached (my favorite) and I topped it with a spinach salad. The dressing I created was Olive Oil, Basalmic Vinegar, Apple Cidar Vinegar, and a squeeze of Lemon - topped off with salt and pepper - then pour over salad.
