Spaghetti squash takes 10 minutes to microwave, pesto takes 5 minutes to put together in a blender. Steamed vegetables with oven-roasted fish or pan fried chicken breast both take 15 minutes. There's so many options for those of us who are determined to make it work.

I'm a farmer's wife (corn, wheat, and cotton ironically) who works in a small town and lives in a smaller one (we don't even have a dollar store in my hometown). My only grocery shopping options are a small supermarket and Walmart. I was getting very discouraged about whether or not this was going to be do-able and was about to give up completely. I am encouraged now and am printing this info off as I type to take with me when I get groceries this evening.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-75965812287101230412011-09-14T09:02:27.891-07:002011-09-14T09:02:27.891-07:00Being single and cooking just for myself, I'm ...Being single and cooking just for myself, I'm always on the lookout for healthy store-bought meals (otherwise I'm stuck eating large dishes by myself...which gets boring). I find I eat rotisserie chiken a lot but I like your variation on it by making it into chicken tacos.

Coconut water is great for replenishment after exercise, but it's also high in carbs if you're watching them. With anything, moderation is probably a good thing along with variety. Meat and veggies with little to no processing should be your keystone foods with moderated processed foods like coconut oil, milk, and water.

I agree that sometimes we can get caught up in the details and miss the big picture that we are already eating better than most of the population and we have done our bodies a great service by taking steps in the right direction. For example, here was my dilemma last night. I couldn't decide which was worse: potato chips made with olive oil, sea salt, and rosemary or sweet potato chips made with canola/sunflower/safflower oil but no added salt. The decision had me paralyzed. I finally went with a mix of both. I know I shouldn't really be having processed, highly dense carbohydrates, but sometimes I am human too and just want something easy and comforting. Guess I am going to hell ;)<br /><br />I'll get working on that dining out guide, Trixie!Kristy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11214418778607114591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-28617086810971298262010-03-16T07:49:14.573-07:002010-03-16T07:49:14.573-07:00Thank you so much for this post.

Always nice to know there are other "human" paleo eaters (that sounds cannibalistic but I think you get what I'm saying lol)Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915338661460299311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-24712002670294008762010-03-14T08:03:16.613-07:002010-03-14T08:03:16.613-07:00This post was super helpful for in regards to navi...This post was super helpful for in regards to navigating the grocery store.

Thanks for the gentle reminder that we (your blog readers) are most likely already eating better than 95% of the population.

Good question. Seeds are okay in modera...Hi Becca,<br />Good question. Seeds are okay in moderation, but oils and butters from them concentrate their dangerously high omega-6 levels, which we want to keep as close to a 1:1 relationship with omega-3 fatty acids as possible. That is why vegetable oils and seed butters should be avoided as much as possible. For more information, check out Mark's Daily Apple's Definitive Guide to Oils: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/healthy-oils/<br />And why to avoid polyunsaturated fatty acids: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/polyunsaturated-fat/<br /><br />Hope that helps!Kristy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11214418778607114591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-52254635676058029002010-03-11T22:20:27.174-08:002010-03-11T22:20:27.174-08:00So according to this post, sunflower oil is not go...So according to this post, sunflower oil is not good, but what about sunflower butter?
