Have you ever thought about trying a Paleo Diet but you don’t have any idea where to start? Below is what I ate during the first week of my Paleo Diet experiment. I tried to have a wide variety of foods, but I learned that I need to branch out in the vegetable department. Many of the meals were grilled. Don’t think that you must eat grilled food if you want to eat like a caveman. I grilled a lot because it’s summer and very hot outside. I want to enjoy this hot weather while I can.
Breakfast
Monday – Friday: Fruit smoothies made with frozen blueberries or frozen bananas with hemp powder, apple juice and ice.
Saturday: Three scrambled eggs with low fat ham and fresh fruit.
Snack
Fruit and almonds

Dinner
Monday: Swordfish steak with mixed vegetables
Tuesday: Tomato, red onion and mixed herb salad with hemp seeds
Wednesday: Grilled lemon chicken with grilled zucchini and red peppers
Thursday: garlic sirloin steak with grilled balsamic red onions splashed
Friday: beef shwarma with pickled turnips, tomatoes, red onion and chopped lettuce.
Saturday: Smoked pork ribs. (Not Paleo but tasty!)
As you can tell, there is only six days on this week’s food diary. When I started the experiment, I just returned from holidays and I needed to go grocery shopping. I was unable to completely eat Paleo on the first Sunday so I didn’t include the meals. Following the Paleo Diet has enabled me to eat more fish and seafood. Usually, I don’t purchase fish because my wife hates the smell of it. But now I’m justified. When she has a piece of tofu or some beans for protein, I’m having yummy fish! Tune in next week for another Paleo Diet menu.
