Candied Nuts

Normally I just eat nuts as they are. They’re a great snack, especially paired with a couple dried apricots, apples or roasted kale. But every once in a while I want something a little sweeter. There are tons of ways to do this. I’ve used a variety of combinations of nuts, oil and sweeteners. This [...]

Random Deliciousness

Over the past few days I’ve taken a couple photos of the tasty things I eat. Pretty random and no recipes… but if you ask nice maybe I’ll post the recipes. Not that you’d need them, these are pretty straightforward.
I don’t always eat according to the rules but I usually do pretty good. These photos [...]

Carne Adovada

Carne Adovada is a New Mexican dish that’s everywhere here. When we moved to Albuquerque a little over a year ago I went and got a breakfast burrito at a local place and saw that one of their burritos had Carne Adovada in it. I asked what it was and I remember the cashier had [...]

Thai Shrimp Curry

I dig shrimp. I lived for 5 years just off  the coast of South Carolina and I learned to love these delicious little protein nuggets of the sea. There will likely be lots of recipes in the future that include shrimp. This one got mixed reviews. The Cavewife was not a big fan. The Cavekids were [...]

The famous McSoG

The Son of Grok (hallowed be his name) created a primal breakfast delicacy unrivaled for its simplicity, elegance and gooey deliciousness nearly a year ago. The McSoG! I’ve admired it ever since and have made it a few times now. This is its most recent iteration with a few changes to the original recipe. As [...]

Fried Plantains with Guacamole

While on our trip to Pros Ranch Market I also picked up some plantains. I’ve since learned that plantains aren’t the ideal primal food – they have lots of carbs, similar to a sweet potato -  but they have a glycemic index of 38 (same as an apple) so not totally terrible.
Anyway I’ve been craving [...]

Keftedes (greek meatballs) Primal Style video

One of the first recipes I adapted to the Caveman Diet was keftedes. They’re Greek meatballs and they’re fantastic! I did it for one of Mark Sisson’s primal contests this last summer. I had to make a few changes to traditional keftedes recipes and it seems I wasn’t able to please anyone with it. Those [...]

Nopales con Huevos (cactus with eggs)

Recently I took the cavefamily to Pros Ranch Market, a great local Mexican grocery store where I got a cactus leaf. Or “nopales” as I’ve since learned they’re called. I found these cactus leafs in the store and even though I had no idea what to do with them I bought one and then used [...]

Andouille sausage stuffed zucchini boats

Last night I made something primal that even the cavekids liked. So far in my primal journey this is rare. Unless I make bacon of course. Everyone likes bacon.
There are tons of recipes out there for zucchini boats. It’s a relatively simple concept: scoop out innards of zucchini. Put delicious stuff where the zucchini innards [...]
