2. THE PALEO DIET - GREAT RECIPE EXAMPLES
BY OLESYA NOVIK
The "Paleolithic Diet" refers to a hunter-gatherer type diet, where all processed, unnatural
foods are completely eliminated, and everything consumed consists of animal proteins
(anything one would be able to "hunt), and vegetables/fruits/plants (anything one would be
able to "gather."). This allows its follower to stay satisfied, often eating more food than ever
before, while remaining very lean and often gaining strength and muscle.
We'll discuss this diet in detail in another article, but in this one, I'd like to share three of
my favorite recipes that are fully compliant with the diet. All of the following are beneficial
for the body in many different ways. They're brimming with vitamins, and will speed up
your metabolism as they provide you with plenty of energy - all while tasting absolutely
amazing. Enjoy!
Roast Pumpkin with Red Onions and Rosemary
Ingredients: 1/2 Butternut pumpkin, seeded and sliced
4 Red onions, peeled and sliced
4 Tbsp Fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
4 Tbsp Olive oil

3. Directions: Pre-heat the oven to 350 F.
Line your baking sheet with foil, place pumpkin, onion, and rosemary leaves on the baking
tray, and coat with oil.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until pumpkin is easily pierced with a fork and the onions
have browned. Serve and enjoy! Makes four servings.
White Fish with Macadamia Salsa

1/2 cup Tomatoes, chopped

fish for about 4 minutes, or until opaque.

4. For the salsa, combine macadamias, tomatoes, avocado, olive oil, coriander, and parsley
in a bowl.
To serve, place the fish over (or right next to) the salsa. Serves two.
Broccoli and Pine-Nut Soup
Ingredients: 1 Onion, diced
1 Tbsp Olive oil
3 cups Broccoli florets
3 cups Chicken stock
1/4 cup Pine nuts
Directions: Fry onion in a pan coated with oil, until slightly browned. Add the broccoli and
stock, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until broccoli has softened. Cool slightly.
Blend in a food processor or with an electric immersion blender until desired texture is
achieved. Heat before serving, and sprinkle with pine nuts once plated. Makes two
servings.
