How was your first week of the paleo challenge?
We covered a lot of ground at Saturday’s Food as Fuel class, but I know some of you missed out… what questions do you have? What has been toughest about it so far? Post here in the comments and we’ll help each other out!
Next week we’re doing a paleo meal swap… in groups of up to eight (we’ll split up if there’s a huge crowd), we’ll each make seven extra servings of the same paleo dish, then bring them in on Sunday/Monday night (still ironing out details) to swap, so instead of eating the same thing all week, you’ll get to taste seven new dishes! We’ll share the recipes in the Facebook group to give you new ideas for what to cook for yourself in the second half of the challenge! Email Alicia if you are interested or want more details.
Eat-Clean January Resource-o-tha-day!
