Paleo-huh?

Just a short update here. Apparently I am on a "paleo" diet now. Jeanine is an avid Crossfitter and they have challenged themselves to maintain this diet for 2 months. As I understand this diet it doesn't allow processed sugars or grains. I don't know why they call it paleo, although I think it's because you can only eat what the dinosaurs ate!

I'm not a nutritionist, but I am told that this diet works by creating a low glycemic index. Your body is forced into a fat burning mode.

This sounds restrictive, but Jeanine had found great ways of cooking paleo. I really hesitate to call it a diet. Keep following for some great recipes and hopefully great results!
