A Massive List of Recipes

A friend of mine, who is dancing with the idea of going paleo, asked me for some recipe recommendations, and I thought it might be fun to post the email here for anyone who's interested.

Hello! I am emailing you links to some of my favorite Paleo recipes!

Also, if you look at the first entry on my health blog (http://ieatpaleo.blogspot.com) there are links to some of my favorite health and fitness websites. As we discussed the other day, I have the luxury of time, which I know is a thing you lack, so all the health and fitness tips I have to offer come from that perspective. I'll star ones that are fairly low-maintenance to prepare. (Low-maintenance doesn't necessarily mean fast - some of these have longish cooking times.)

Without further ado, some of my favorite recipes:

I have also begun to try to incorporate salad into every meal. I have some homemade dressings that I make... my favorite is a raspberry vinaigrette, which is just 1/2 cup of raspberry vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp of chopped mint leaves.

Hope this helps you on your journey!
