GFChris Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Sorry, but paleo pancakes are not allowed on a Whole30, period. Everything else you listed sounds like a nice Whole30 breakfast, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anaxg Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Totally Swypo... sorry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberino21 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Why would you want to? Do you need something more than the meat, avo and tons of vegies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Guys, I'm of the personal opinion (read: PERSONAL) that there's nothing wrong with this (in the same way we allow Pure Wraps), but I've put in for official word and I'll let you know as soon as I hear back. ETA: Official word is no-go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin, (and I'm asking more from an educational perspective and not to be argumentative), this seems to be made pretty clear in http://whole9life.com/2013/06/the-official-can-i-have-guide-to-the-whole30/. If you look under Coconut Flour, it says not to use it to make pancakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Edited because I don't think I added anything to the discussion here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hmm ... I appreciate your perspective. For me, I see these recipes as distinctly different. There's no flour or fruit of any kind in the EFY recipe, and it's more savory/spicy vs. sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Official word: They're out. Too much potential for less-than healthy choices involved. Like mentioned above, eat the toppings alone (good stuff) or throw them in a Pure Wrap. GFChris - There was no fruit in the shredded meat Nom Nom recipe either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 GFChris - There was no fruit in the shredded meat Nom Nom recipe either Oops ... my mistake ... I thought I saw bananas in the Nom Nom coconut pancakes recipe. Thanks for getting the official word, Robin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 No problem! It's what I do Also, once I get back to my laptop I'm going to go ahead and edit my response. The pancake issue is a hot one around here and I would hate for my opinion to muddy the waters at all and encourage inconsistency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenderbender Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Since we the attn of 2 mods I just wanted to tell this little tale about allowed and SWYPO foods and how it applies in real life.... I have a friend that has had full gastric by-pass, lost 100 lbs, then spent $60K on every plastic surgery to nip and tuck everything only to gain about 120++ lbs back in the course of two years!!! She recently underwent a second procedure " lapband" (?? I thought everything was already chopped and cut???). Crying shame I bought her ISWF and have tried in vain for her to see the light, but she wants a magic potion... OK to the point: recently had dinner with her, she grilled shrimp, zucchini,peppers,eggplant. No oil at all ( boring) but so for so good. Steamed spaghetti squash and marinara ( pomi tomatoes,basil,garlic). All perfectly allowable for me under a W30 It wasn't until I watched her eat that it dawned on me.... She had recreated a dish from an Italian bistro.... Got out a big pasta bowl, placed the spaghetti squash on the bottom, arranged her shrimp and veg, covered with marinara and then parm..... Ok the parm is a w30 no no ( she's not on W30). But I wish you could have seen the way she emulated twirling it on a spoon and fork just like real pasta, closing her eyes and telling herself it was real pasta, it was heart breaking!!!! She could not just enjoy the fact that there was some really yummy and healthy foods on her plate, she was coveting real pasta!!! What I took away from this was to ask myself: Am I coveting unhealthy foods and unhealthy old habits??? Am I allowing myself just to enjoy all the tastes and textures real whole foods offer or am I trying to fill an emotional black hole with a paleofied something or other.... So even post w30..... If tostadas, or pancakes, or even in this example plain spaghetti squash marinara..... Puts you in a unhealthy emotional state, walk away....
