I’m back. Finally. I’m in the throes of final exams, final projects, and a new (full-time) job where I have a leadership position. Hopefully I can get back on this here old blog for a few posts. And if you have emailed me in the past couple of weeks, I’m starting on those tomorrow.
In the meantime, we are still eating Paleo and I thought I’d give you a little peak into my kitchen.
We eat a lot of produce in our home. I’m not very good at knowing how much money we spend or how many hours we cook, but I took a moment to write down every fresh vegetable and fruit we ate for a week. Here are the results of one nursing mom, one CrossFitting husband, one hungry 3yo and one 1yo who doesn’t eat very much produce at all in order to protect her gut:
- 8 lbs carrots
- 1/2 bag snap peas
- 2 red peppers
- 4 oz fresh basil
- 2 heads cabbage
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 2 heads cauliflower
- 2 cucumbers
- 1 head red leaf lettuce
- 5 bunches broccoli
- 6 zucchini
- 8 avocados
- 1 butternut squash
There you have it. This list doesn’t include any fruit because we aren’t eating much of it lately. My baby can’t have it, so we try not to make her too jealous. It also doesn’t count pickles, coconut products (flakes, butter, milk, etc.), olives, raisins, or canned green beans, but gives a pretty accurate count of how much produce we typically eat.
How does this compare to you? Are you eating way more, way less, or does this look about right?
