Let’s talk about paleo snacks.
And I don’t mean some silliness like ‘got paleo snacks?? HERE’s some paleo snacks for you!’
Nope, this is a heart to heart conversation.
You know, in blog post form.
Because raise your hand if you can eat super well at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but that doughnut or ice cream or chips or crackers counts as a ‘snack’ and that derails your healthy eating efforts. I’m sitting at my computer raising my hand right now looking pretty silly. So go ahead, raise your hand. I’ll wait.
Thank you. Now that we’re all the on same page, I think we all need to be real about the fact that we all know how to eat eggs for breakfast, m’kay? We all understand that eating larger, more healthy-fat rich meals is going to cut down on our snacking needs. But it doesn’t mean you’re failing the paleo life if you want a snack.
As long as it’s the right snack. But you’re only going to reach for the right paleo snacks if it – what was it? – oh yea, tastes good. Imagine that. Raw almonds, which my dad says taste like tree bark, are not the only approved paleo snack.
Don’t believe me? Well, below I’ve compiled not forty, not fifty, but SIXTY paleo-approved snacks. So there’s a good chance that at least some percentage taste pretty darn good.
So snack away, fellow paleo people.
