Not enough time to cook, huh?

Tonight my wife cooked dinner.
She's 8 months pregnant.
She cooked a lamb roast.
"Holy cats!" you exclaim. What a lot of work.
No, sorry, not a lot of work at all.
Here's how it broke down:

• turn on the oven
• cut vegies (sweet potato, zucchini, beetroot, pumpkin)
• remove easy-carve lamb from bag
• oil trays
• whack food on trays
• put food in oven
• twiddle thumbs
• check food
• twiddle thumbs
• pull food out of oven
• carve lamb (my job)
• serve
• eat

So, easy anyone could do it.

Really. The oven does the work.

And the food is amazing!

And it didn't take a lot of effort.

Excuse Killer #2 - I don't know what to eat

C'mon, you already know what healthy food is...mostly.
You're looking for an excuse. Aren't you?

Here's what to eat:

• meat
• eggs
• vegetables (preferably non-starchy)
• fruit (not too much)
• good fats
• nuts & seeds (in moderation)

Here's what to avoid:

• gluten
• processed foods
• grains
• legumes
• dairy
• sugar

Now, that's not too much to take in.

Keep it simple. Fit your meals to the framework and eat yummy foods.

Lamb loin with cumin roasted cauliflower

This dish is quick and easy, its got everything paleo going for it. Lamb loin is a very lean cut of meat, but still retains a lot of tasty lamb flavour goodness. This cut of meat cooks quite quickly also and it goes really well with spices like cumin. If you have the time roughly 3 hours before hand or overnight, marinate the lamb in a little oil, some rosemary, and some lemon juice.

You might of seen by now I use lemon juice in a few of the dish's I've put up. Lemon juice is acidity and if you use it on meats or vegetables it helps break down the cell walls and allows herb aromas and other liquids to enter and flavour foods. Use on raw finely sliced veggies as well to soften them. Most vegetables can be used except starchy ones like potato, pumpkin, and sweet potato.


Ingredients:

• Lamb loin, around 150 grams.
• Cauliflower, around 300 grams. Cut up and into bite size pieces.
• Cumin spice,roughly 2 tablespoons.
• Macadamia oil.
  

Method:

• Pre-heat oven to its max temperature. Were going to roast the cauliflower on a super high heat for roughly 10 to 15 minutes. Toss your cauliflower into a mixing bowl and add some oil and the cumin spice. Place onto a oven tray with aluminium foil and bake for 10 to 20 minutes depending how strong your oven is.
• While our cauliflower is cooking, grab a char-griller, or pan and sear lamb either side for roughly 2 minutes. Set aside and let it rest on top of a wire wrack for 5 minutes. If you like your meat cooked medium to well done, place into the oven for a little longer.
• Once cauliflower is done and meat is rested its time to eat. The cauliflower should be a little crunchy on the outside, but soft in the middle. Arrange on the plate as you like and finish with a little oil and some more lemon juice.

If you want a add a little fanciness, however its not quite so paleo then add some tzatziki.

Makes: 2 to 3 serves.

Prep/cook time: 30 minutes.

Notes:

• Gluten free.
• Dairy free.
• Nightshades free.
• Egg free.

Meet Zane - fellow caveman

Zane Hoare - good mate, great coach and all round nice guy - put himself and his family through the Whole 30 challenge recently. He maintained an awesome blog during that time. You really should read it. It is chock full of great info and shows how any family can get their Paleo on.

Excuse Killer #1 - I don't have the time

So, you don't have the time?
Really?
You're telling me that you don't have enough time in a 24 hour day to prepare good food and eat it?
Huh. Wow.

Let's take a good look at this problem shall we...?

• There are 24 hours in a day (the same for everyone).
• Let's assume you sleep for 8 (16 to go).
• You work for 9 (7 to go).
• You travel for 1 (6 to go).
• You exercise for 1 (5 to go).
• You spend 1 doing "stuff" (4 to go).
• You use up 2 showering etc. and eating (2 to go).
• There are still 2 hours left.

Now, really you day doesn't look anything like that does it?
You probably spend less time travelling or you only work 8 hours.

Even if you squeezed every hour out of every day, I'm guessing you still have time on the weekends.

One last question: how many hours do you spend watching TV each week?

The Raw Test

I often get asked, "what can I eat when following The Paleo Diet?"

I must admit that I find this question somewhat baffling as the definition is pretty easy to follow in my opinion. Put simply: eat fresh, whole foods and avoid processed foods.

Fair enough, this may not provide an obvious guide to everyone. Perhaps I understand foods a little more based on my job.

Therefore, I recently proposed a food test that you could use to decide if something is a good food choice. I call it The Raw Test. It's as simple as can be. Ask yourself:

"Can I eat it raw?"

The question places the food you're considering on the spot. Would it be possible to eat it raw? This doesn't mean you would necessarily want to eat it raw. By raw - I mean uncooked or unprocessed. It's just a way to judge foods. Here are some examples, with answers to the test:

• Fish - yes
• Beef - yes
• Wheat - no
• Rice - no
• Carrot - yes

Get it?

Is it foolproof? Absolutely not. There are exceptions to this rule. If you are looking for exceptions you are being a pain in your own ass.

Am I recommending eating uncooked? Not necessarily. It's suitable in some circumstances but not all. Educate yourself on what should be cooked and why.

Try assessing your food choices with The Raw Test. See how it works for you. Just add it to your toolkit. Leave a comment with your thoughts too.

It's not a cult!

Okay, okay, before we get into this whole "90% Paleo", "that's not Paleo", "you're not strict Paleo" BS let's get something straight.

It's not a cult!


You need to think of Paleo as a construct.
It's just a framework.
A set of guidelines that help you make good decisions about your health, fitness & wellbeing.

If we start to get our knickers in a twist about who is more Paleo than whomever else, then we are being a bit silly. Let's not be silly. Silly is for people following The Zone, or South Beach, or whatever other bollocks is out there.

It's not a diet. It's a model for a healthy, happy life!

So, let's not worry too much if someone sneaks in a little dairy in their macchiato or a slice of cheese or -heaven forbid - a potato. It's not the end of the world. It doesn't mean they're going to become diabetic overnight.

Let's help as many people as possible get on board. Joe and I wouldn't be spending so much time on this blog if we didn't think it would change lives. Fads don't change lives, movements do. This is a movement that has the potential to save lives and improve the lives people lead. So, don't jump on your high horse, just help where you can.

Thank you, Adam.

Orange & star-anise poached pears

Pears are a awesome fruit to cook with. Once peeled there soft flesh absorbs and soaks in any herbs, spices and any other liquids you may use. They are available all year around too. I feel too that the humble pear is pushed aside for the more main stream fruits like your granny smith's, bananas and stone fruits, which make them a tad cheaper.

So what were going to do is cheat here and use orange juice to poach our pears because using a sugar syrup to poach isn't very Paleo friendly.

Ingredients:

• 2 or 3 pears, any variety.
• 1 litre of orange juice, fresh orange juice that you can buy from a real green grocer or market. Use packet stuff only if you can't find anything else, go for the organic stuff as they have less preservatives . Or make you're own.
• 1 Cinnamon stick, or 1 tablespoon of cinnamon powder.
• 2 pieces of Star -anise.
• 2 cloves or cardamon.(optional)
• Juice from 2 lemons. Take the rind off first with a zester to add taste.

Method:

• Peel you're pears and place in a pot with the orange juice and all other ingredients.
• Bring to a light simmer and then turn down to lowest setting on your stove.
• Cover and poach for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour grab a small sharp knife and poke the pears. If it goes in easy and all the way to the core, there done.
• Place in the fridge with some of the liquid on top.
• Keep the remaining liquid in the pot and bring it to the boil. Then turn down to a simmer to make a strong, sweet, sticky sauce.

You can eat the pears, cold, warm or however you like. Roast off some macadamias as i find they go really well with anything citrus and enjoy.


Makes: 2 to 3 serves.


Prep/cook time: 1 hour


Notes:

• Gluten free
• Dairy free
• Egg free

Oh and just quickly if you are going to make a sugar syrup to poach fruit, the ratio is always 1:1. So 100 grams of sugar to 100 millilitres of water.

Ocean trout with spinach puree and dutch carrots

Ok, so I love fish recipes, especially now summer is coming up and I guess most people associate fish with summer. Like hearty meat dishes on those long rainy days in winter. Ocean trout is so tasty and some might say its exactly like salmon, but the taste is more salty and theres more fat I feel in the flesh. You can always tell a ocean trout apart from a piece of salmon by on the skin side theres a red line that runs through the middle. I learnt this recipe along time ago, it can be pretty quick if your setup and organised shouldn't take to long at all.

Ingredients:

• Ocean trout, roughly 150 to 180 gram portions.
• Spinach, a big bags worth around the same size as a plastic shopping bag(dont worry once we blanch it in hot water it will loose most of its size)
• 1 Bunch of contiental parsely.
• 2 cloves of garlic
• Dutch carrots.
• Macadamia oil.
• Blender or vitamiser.

Method:

• So to speed up things boil some water, roughly 1 litre. 
• While the water is boiling heat a skillet or frying pan and get it hot. 
• Cook fish flesh side down once oil is just smoking in the pan. 
• Turn down temp of the hot plate and let the fish simmer, or place in the oven. 
• Place boiling water in a large pot and turn it the temp up high on the stove so it keeps boiling.
• Place all the spinach, parsely and garlic in the pot and blanch for no more than 30 seconds to 1 minute, get some tongs or a big slotted spoon and take out spinach and let it strain and cool in the sink.
• KEEP the water to blanch the carrots and throw them in now. 
• Squeeze a little excess water out of the spinach mix and place in the blender. This is important, always put a tea towel over the top of the blender in case the top flys off and hot spinach mix goes everywhere. (It happens daily in most commercial kitchens) . 
• Ok blend mix with a little oil to get consistency. 
• Season mix and place on the plate, next the dutch carrots which should be ready by now and then the fish. 
• Its also important to cook fish no more, depending on the size for no longer than 6-7 minutes. If you see white gooey bits coming out the sides thats good tasty protein fat that also indicates your overcooking it. Most fish can be a little bit under cooked anyway.

So that's it.
Dried wakame seaweed goes really well as garnish on top to add a little more taste and texture.

Makes: 2 to 3 serves

Prep/cook time: 20 to 30 minutes


Notes: 

• Gluten free
• Dairy free

General cooking and also travelling cooking tips to follow this week. Stay tuned.

Shopping time

Lets start at the beginning of healthy eating. First and foremost our ingredients and where they come from. Shopping should be to some degree enjoyable and easy if we try other avenues away from Coles and Safeway.

Markets and local Farmers Markets are the best way to not only find fresher and healthier fruits and veggies, but you're also supporting local businesses in the process.

Travel to the Vic, Prahran, or South Melbourne markets and just notice the difference between the produce. Notice the colour, texture, size and smell of everything. This is what we should be eating. Food should not be shipped interstate in refrigerated trucks. Not only does refrigerating fruit and vegetables lower the nutritional value , it alters taste as well. So stop doing it. Granted some fruits don't last more than a few days in warmer conditions like some berries. So eat them within 2 days.

Start leaving you're goodies in a cool, dry place. Close to ground level but somewhere that has wind flow. Also avoid using plastic bags as well, especially when not refrigerating, heat builds up in the bag and the contents will sweat. (Herbs can be left in a pot with a little water at the bottom)

I recently travelled to Eastern Europe in July, I went to Hungary, Serbia, and Croatia. I was blown away and at first very apprehensive about the fruit and veg suppliers over there. There are no huge food Conglomerates , and literally everyone bought from independant farmers in small market places, NOTHING was refrigerated and it was the best tasting produce I've probably ever had.

All the big markets are open Mondays,Wednesdays,Thursdays and Saturdays. If your serious about what goes into you're body you will make time to shop at the right places.


Here's where to go:

• Vic Market http://www.qvm.com.au/
• Prahran http://www.prahranmarket.com.au/
• South Melbourne http://www.southmelbournemarket.com.au/
• Richmond Farmers Market www.whitehat.com.au/Melbourne/Markets/GleadellSt.asp

So go forth and start your quest for healthier eating.

The Paleo Solution

Robb Wolf is at the forefront of Paleo nutrition research and advocacy. He has been educating people for a number of years in the necessity of a Paleo Diet for body composition, performance, health, fitness and longevity. A former biological research assistant and colleague of Dr Loren Cordain, Robb has a wealth of theoretical, clinical and empirical knowledge.

Robb recently released his first book. It covers everything you need to know about living the Paleo lifestyle. We highly recommend his book. Grab it now!

Check out Robb's website too.

Nightshades. Deadly?

The Nightshades family includes potatoes, tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, eggplant, and a few other favourites. Nightshades are yummy but they have a dark-side; they have been connected to inflammatory disorders and pain! If you suffer from joint pain it might be a good idea to avoid Nightshades.

We will be presenting recipes that do not include any nightshades. Be sure to look at the notes at the bottom of the recipe to see what's included.

Check out this great article for more Nightshades info: "All about nightshades: explore the hidden hazards of your favorite food with macrobiotic nutritionist Lino Stanchich"

Gluten = DEATH!

Okay, I may have overstated the point a little.

But! Make no mistake, gluten is pure evil and should be avoided at all costs.

"But I don't have gluten intolerance" I hear you whine. Read carefully: I DON'T CARE. Gluten is bad, get off it.

Gluten has been associated with:

• Hashimoto's Disease
• Coeliac Disease
• Crohn's Disease
• Diabetes
• Infertility in women

Ignorance isn't bliss. Educate yourself! 

And perhaps your doctor isn't the best place to learn...

Barramundi with garlic, ginger and Asian greens

What the fruc?

Fructose. Sounds funny. It's serious.

Fructose is the type of sugar found in fruits. No trouble there. However, there is some trouble when you consume fructose without fibre.

Corn syrup anyone?

Dr Robert Lustig is - probably - the world's preeminent authority on fructose. The video below is quite long but it's a must-see. So, grab a coffee and get comfy. It's time to open your mind.



Post your thoughts to comments.

Huh, cholesterol isn't bad for me?

Welcome to controversial caveman time. Today, we're here to tell you that cholesterol is NOT bad for you. We could write a bloody long post about this but we're not going to. Instead wrap your ears around the below video (there's no video footage).

Joe's Almost Paleo Mini-muffins

Okay, alright, we admit it, these bad boys are not Paleo. Every now and then we are going to present some ideas that push the boundaries a little. Think of these as a better way to fall off the wagon. We're not suggesting you go mental on this kind of stuff. We do however want to present you with a way of having something sweet without exposing yourself to all the nasties out there.

Ingredients:

• Blanched or raw almond meal, 300grams (approx.)
• Eggs yolk, 2 (keep whites for an omelette)
• Coconut milk, roughly 100ml (enough to make consistency thick like batter)
• Cinnamon powder, 1 teaspoon
• Blueberries or diced fruit of you choice (1/2 cup)
• Spray oil (EVOO)

Method:

• First pre-heat oven to 180 degrees
• Weigh ingredients
• Grab a large bowl and combine all dry ingredients therein
• Separate eggs and add to dry mix along with coconut milk
• Combine with a wooden spoon and then add fruit
• Spray tins and spoon in the mixture, keeping in mind almond meal doesn't rise like flour so add mixture to top. 
• Bake for roughly 15 mins.
• Grab a skewer and poke into the middle of muffin, if it comes out clean, muffins are ready. Easy as.
• Double or triple the recipe and buy 2 extra tins to make a large batch at the start of the week. They freeze up fairly well

Makes: 12-15 (approx.)

Prep/cook time: 30 minutes

Notes:

• Gluten free
• Dairy free

Smoked salmon, fresh pear and celeriac salad

This awesome salad, is easy to mash together and they all go hand in hand with eachother. The crunchy pear and distinct celeriac taste (which tastes like a potato and celery but minus the starch and Carb factor) go really well with soft smoked salmon and traditional dill.

Ingredients:

• Half a bulb of celeriac
• 1 pear
• Smoked salmon
• Mayonaisse
• Fresh Dill
• Spinach leaves

Method:

• Peel the celeriac and cut long thin strips. Throw into a mixing bowl.
• Dice pear and add to bowl.
• Cut some of the salmon and mix in, reserve the rest for the top
• Mix the dill, spinach and mayo in as well.
• Throw into a bowl and munch. 

For a bit more fanciness add some ocean trout pearls, which are large orange caviar fish eggs, they're not too expensive and can be bought at some select food stores like Thomas Dux or Simon Johnson.

Researching has brought me to the discovery that celeriac is a awesome substitute for potatoes, use it for mashes, soups and sauces. Celeriac also goes really well any seafood.

More to follow soon.
Bye for now.

The Dry Martini - almost Paleo

Strictly speaking alcohol is out when we talk about the Paleo Diet and its variants. Truth be told, the vast majority of people living the Paleo lifestyle still partake in a wee tipple every now and then.

Robb Wolf continually espouses the joys of the NorCal Margarita (tequila, lime & soda) however I'm an old school kinda guy (when it comes to cocktails) and therefore, in my humble opinion, the Dry Martini is the greatest expression of Paleo-ness in a cocktail.

How to make a Dry Martini

1. Chill a martini glass
2. Fill half a Boston shaker with ice
3. Pour 1/2 shot of Noilly Prat dry vermouth into the shaker
4. Prepare an olive (or two) or a lemon twist
5. Drain the vermouth from the shaker
6. Add 2 1/2 shots of London Dry Gin (Plymouth or Bombay Sapphire)
7. Stir the ice until the shaker is c-c-cold
8. Strain the liquid into the glass
9. Add the garnish

How to drink a Dry Martini

1. Slowly
2. With good friends (or family)
3. As often as possible

Paleo breakfast yum-yum

For some reason a whole bunch of folks have issues constructing Paleo breakfasts. I don't get it. Er, maybe I do. I think it's got to do with the fact that most peeps are used to corn flakes, toast and jam and a cup of tea any time earlier than midday. The whole idea of eating meat, eggs and other Paleo goodies causes a minor brain meltdown.

Well, I'm here to tell you a few cool things. Firstly, corn flakes are crap. Avoid them at all costs. Secondly, toast = gluten = death. Thirdly, bacon and eggs are heaven sent.

My breakfasts rotate around a few themes, here they are:

• Bacon and eggs
• Smoked salmon and eggs
• Omelettes (of many variations)
• Fresh fruit
• Left-over meat and veg from the previous evening meal

Smoked salmon and boiled eggs. Too easy.

So, what's your excuse? Really. Why can't you eat like a caveman before midday? Hmmm?

So, what are you guys gonna do here then?

There are plenty of great Paleo websites online already. We know, we visit them. So, why another one? Two reasons: we want to spread the word and we want to show you how to cook some great Paleo goodies.

You see, most people avoid switching to a Paleo lifestyle simply because they think it's too hard or they can't think of meals to cook that fit the Paleo concept. We're going to show you how easy it is. And it's gonna be yumm-o too!

Paleo? Er, what's that then?

When we say "Paleo", we're talking about the way of eating that is often referred to as The Paleo Diet, The Ancestral Diet, The Caveman Diet and a few others. They are all variations on the same concept. And to be truthful it's not a diet, it's lifestyle choice that ensures you eat what you are designed to eat.

Paleo eating and living is not a fad. It's not a quick fix (although rapid weight loss is possible). The Paleo Diet is a way of getting your metabolism, body composition and overall health back on track, and keep it there.

"Paleo" is used to name the concept because our genetic makeup hasn't changed since paleolithic times; unfortunately our diet has changed significantly -- and not for the better.

In a nutshell, The Paleo Diet suggests you eat meat, eggs, vegetables, nuts, seeds and fruit. It excludes processed foods, sugar, starchy vegetables, legumes, dairy and grains thereby removing just about everything that causes inflammation, irritation and illness.

The diet is perfect for diabetics, coeliacs, those suffering inflammatory illness and autoimmune disease, and everyone else too. Seriously, this is how you should be eating.

Why is it so good? It's gluten-free, dairy-free, preservative-free, additive-free. It's high in nutrients. It's fresh. It's natural. And it tastes good.
