I’m yet again on a health journey – will fill you in later – and my doctor has suggested: a return to paleo eating, a supplement regimen and not eating leftovers as we attempt to fix my gut.
This is proving difficult. Paleo is fine – no worries there – but wrapping my brain around not only not batch cooking but aiming for no leftovers is doing my head in.
How am I supposed to cook recipes if I’m only cooking 2 portions? Or not even 2 sometimes – 1?
My solution for now: smoothies for breakfast, ‘girl dinner’ charcuterie plates for lunch & dinners of simple veg (maybe) & a single serving protein like steak or salmon.
Here is the breakdown of a whole week’s worth of my charcuterie lunches. If you’ve got any suggestions for paleo-friendly additions, let me know!
gluten-free, paleo, vegetables, meat
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
And that’s the week. I think it was a success. I suppose I technically ate leftovers, since the yogurt carried on and the meats were repeated, but I don’t think it’s practical to have a no-leftover life unless you’re relying on premade foods.
I think I’ll carry this experiment on as I’ve rather enjoyed having nibble plates for lunch.
Let me know what you’d put in yours!
