rach91 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Mackerel for breakfast. I can't get bored of it, even though I should probably change it up once in a while! And just massive piles of veggies fried in coconut oil. (you can tell I haven't got "sophisticated" whole30 recipes quite down yet haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katey Dager Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'm on day 4, and enjoying what I'm eating. White sweet potatoes. Bought them by accident instead of the regular orange ones and I discovered that I like them even more. Fruit in general. I was on low carb, so I missed fruit a lot! Larabars...I only buy them as an emergency snack. I can't keep them in the house because I'm almost positive I would eat them like dessert. But yes, I adore them. Butternut Squash. I'd had it before, but I have realized I really like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peace_positive Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Moroccan-inspired duck legs! OMfreakingG. Daughter made me go out to store to get more so I could make them again I can't get enough of cloves, ginger and cumin...oh, and I realized that roasted brussels sprouts are the SHIZNAT!

Vian Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Zoodles! I was always hesitant to try them because I thought they'd get all soggy and gross (like sliced zucchini gets when over-cooked) but they are so good! I even put them in home-made pho and I didn't miss the rice noodles at all! It was sooooo delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runninglawyer88 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I dont have any I ate a rather varied diet before the whole 30. Im thinking of trying parsnips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsStick Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 They're great in a roasted veg medley! Carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, onions with oil and spices, roasted at 400 for until they're done (how's that for specificity?).

**Ann** Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Try sweet potato with cranberries and shredded COCONUT!! Wicked good. Pre- Paloe and Whole 30, I used to make a sweet potato casserole that used coconut--its an excellent combination. Sweet potatoes and coconut were made for each other. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllyB Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I love zoodles! My daughter likes them too which is great because we don't have any wheat in the house and she likes spaghetti. Sauteed brussel sprouts with bacon bits Sauteed kale with bacon bits and yellow raisins (add a splash of vinegar for some acid) Acorn squash cut into strips and roasted Mark Sisson's Coconut Beef Shanks recipe over cauliflower rice is to die for Well Fed2 short ribs made with homemade beef broth that has been reduced so it's lip smacky good. You'll want to roll in it. Nom Nom Paleo has a chicken wing recipe that has some sort of green chile pesto sauce on it (my husband made it and it was great) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lola24 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Thanks everyone for sharing!! I've gotten some great ideas for next week's menu. New favorite food/recipe - Sweet Potato Hash YUM!! I found it on Nomnom Paleo's website. (I hope this link works!) http://nomnompaleo.com/post/39652213611/whole30-day-4-sweet-potato-hash-eggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizilizi Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 NomNomPaleo's emergency protein. Really easy, nitrate free bacon, onions, and cabbage with curry powder. Tonight I added mushrooms, ground pork, and for fun on the side some shrimp for me and my boys. It's really fast to make and super yummy. I dont always add the curry powder, just salt, pepper, and chili flakes seasons it beautifully. I love cabbage!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizilizi Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Okay...you guys have talked about sweet potatoes with cranberries and macadamia nuts one too many times. I'm trying it TONIGHT! Where do I get sugar free cranberries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lori_vt Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 My biggest surprise love was brussels sprouts. I think I could eat them at every meal. And roasted turnip/rutabaga, and parsnips. Since doing my first and second W30, I've lengthened my favorite recipes list by a mile, but those veggies surprised me. I also love raw beet salad (grated with either cabbage or apples or both) and made into a slaw. Favorite recipes: Bora Bora Fireballs, Stovetop Carnitas, Buffalo Chicken Meatballs, Orange Glazed Brussels Sprouts, Gingered Carrot Parsnip Soup, Cocoa Roasted Cauliflower, Sunshine Sauce, homemade Cranberry Breakfast Sausage, Thai Massaman Beef Curry (W30 adapted), Warm Bacon Sweet Potato Egg Salad, Sweet Potato ANYTHING! And I have a new favorite sweet treat - pan fried plantains in coconut oil. OMG they are amazing. I made them for my compliant Pastelon, and they could be a complete dessert by themselves. So sweet! My local coop sells fruit-juice sweetened dried cranberries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennR Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The lowly turnip when mashed and mixed with mashed purple yam. I was surprised how buttery it tasted and how it perfectly complemented the sweetness of the yam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love white sweet potatoes as fries, orange for hash, and purple roasted as is or mashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtracyb Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I was addicted to Nom Nom Paleo's sweet potato hash. And Well Fed's Pad Thai. My kids make me make a huge batch of Well Fed's Chocolate Chili weekly. Funny about white sweet potatoes - my 6 yr son is missing cheese more than anything since we turned paleo, and he can be tricked into thinking he is eating cheese if I send cubed white sweet potatoes in his school lunch.

LisaLulu Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 This was pre whole 30 but last year we got TOO MANY RADISHES in our CSA boxes and nobody wanted to eat anymore. I tossed them in olive oil and lemon and roasted them and they were incredible! They don't taste anything like the spicy, dry raw ones, they are sweet and delicious when roasted. Once I discovered that we felt like we needed more than they were giving us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBC Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Probably the nut butters. Never knew something with just one ingredient would taste so good. Gone are the days of Peanut butter. Also I get to enjoy meals more eg pasta sauce without the pasta in it. I really taste new flavours in mince and meatballs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docpeebs Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I discovered a few things. Home made mayonnaise is awesome. This website has some great simple recipes. I always add garlic and coarse black pepper. I made a simple caponata with eggplant, red and yellow peppers, onions garlic and capers sweated in olive oil and then cooked with chopped tomatoes till the marry their tastes. Ok, I'm not good on quantities, there are hundreds of published recipes with quantities and ingredients listed, I also liked to add a handful of kalamata or other good quality olives. All use added SUGAR. I know it may seem too simple, but I finely grated a handful ( say 1/4 to 1/2 cup) of organic carrots, instant success with different recipes. Give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
