    Meal plan

    Planning Paleo meals can be hard, especially if you're used to grains or beans as staple foods. The basic concept looks like this:

    • A huge pile of vegetables – at least half the plate.
    • 1-2 palm-sized servings of animal protein (or 3-4 eggs).
    • Some healthy fat, like olive or coconut oil.
    • Optionally, some starchy vegetables, fruit, or nuts.

    Here's why that particular meal template works. If that sounds a little strange or hard to plan for, here's a two-week sample meal plan with a printable grocery list so you can see how it can work on a day-to-day level. You can download the grocery list for week 1 here and week 2 here.

    Notes about the menu:

    • The plan assumes you'll be eating 3 meals and a snack every day. It's fine to skip the snack, or even one of the meals, and just eat larger amounts at the other two meals. It's also fine to add more food if you're hungry.
    • The meal plan is sized for two people. Adjust up or down for your household size.
    • Lunches are written to be portable if necessary, for people who eat at work/school. Most snacks are also portable. Breakfasts are fast and usually portable.
    • You can download one PDF with printer-friendly versions of all the recipes for Week 1 here, and for Week 2 here.
