Grain Free
Something I often find myself craving is granola! Before I started the paleo lifestyle, I was a granola lover. Nature Valley Bars, Special K cereal...oh man that sounds so good right now!
However, cutting out grains and gluten has had a huge impact on my weight, bloating, and overall intestinal health. To keep these cravings at bay, I tried Diane Sanfilippo's "Grain Free Banola" recipe from her 21 Day Sugar Detox book.
The first time I made it, I botched it up horribly by over-chopping the nuts. I basically made it into a nut butter! This time, I bought nuts that were already halved and made the "banola" super chunky.
I portioned it into seven smaller containers (one per day, control yourself Peyton!) because I seriously could eat half of this in one sitting!
If you haven't already, buy 21 Day Sugar Detox, even if it is just for the recipes. It is my go-to book in the kitchen, I even take it with me to the grocery store.
