As my sig says, with a few exceptions I'm still eating mostly Whole 30...

My top 10:

Grass-fed, organic, raised on sunlight and angel song, blah blah blah, etc....basically local, non-industrial beef and poultry

Pastured local eggs

Unrefined coconut oil

Coconut milk

Avocados (though they're really expensive here)

Meat bones (for bone broth)

Carrots

Tomatoes and tomato paste

Kale/spinach/green leaves in general (minus lettuce)

Sweet potatoes

One post-Whole 30 staple: Uncured local bacon. (Mine does have sugar in it though)

My kitchen is currently being renovated, which means no stiry frying, using the oven, or anything complicated. I've resorted to these foods because I can throw them into some reheated broth for a quick soup or eat them raw in a salad. In addition, they're versatile and work well in different flavor combos!

-lettuce (I love romaine the most)

-tomatoes

-bell peppers

-jicama

-kimchee

-apples

-soup bones

-duck wing

-free range eggs

Here is my list:

Chicken

Beef

spainach and kale

avacados

eggs

broccoli

coconut chips and almonds with cinnamon (my own little trail mix perfect for snacks)

boneless pork loin chop (mmmm)

watermelon

salsa

I know I cheated combining some :) but it is hard to stick to 10.

  • water
  • lemon (for my morning warm lemon water, as a condiment)
  • eggs
  • chicken
  • GOOD olive oil (my favorite: Trader Joe's Organic Extra Virgin)
  • avocados
  • sweet potatoes
  • nuts (especially raw cashews, pan-toasted walnuts)
  • unsweetened coconut flakes (pan-toasted)
  • green veggies

(I just noticed my beloved fruit was not one of the most necessary things that came to mind. Progress in slaying my sugar dragon?! :-D)

How do u make coconut chips ?

Clothes Make The Girl website has recipe. Make a small batch though. Easy thing to overdo!

Zucchini chips in a dehydrator are good but less dangerous. ;)

Love these top 10 lists. Thanks for bumping it back up for us to find.

My top 10 in no particular order:

  1. eggs
  2. avocados
  3. sweet potatoes - I'm a long time devotee of the yam.
  4. ground beef - just like... everyone else here haha
  5. coconut oil & milk
  6. jalapenos
  7. onions - red usually, but a yellow or white will do!
  8. arugula
  9. baby spinach
  10. zucchini! - It's so cheap on top of being one of my favorite veggies, hands down.

Do you have any good recipes for Jicama? I always see them at the grocery store and want to get them but don't know what to do with them!

I slice them into sticks, squeeze lime on them, and then sprinkle them with chili powder. Yum!

My staples for the past 28 days:

Eggs

Spinach

Avocado

Gf ground beef

Coconut milk

Curry paste for Thai curries

Chicken salad w/paleo mayo

Cauliflower

Herbs - thyme, cilantro, tarragon, sage, and basil in particular

What I love is that it was hard to narrow this down...there really are so many wonderful things you CAN eat, I didn't miss the other things too much.

- cauliflower rice

-coconut aminos

-avocado

-fish sauce

-eggs

- lettuce

-purple cabbage
