Clean Eating

Dave's crossfit/paleo challanges have taken over our lives in a good way! We are all eating cleaner and healthier! 

I am bad at remembering to do this everyday but I try to give my girls fish oil, vitamin d and a probiotic in either a smoothie or oj! Its tough to get it all down them but its the effort that counts right?:)

Our favorite snack is not Paleo but its pretty clean.. The girls and I love almond butter mixed with greek yogurt and a little honey with apples bananas!!

This is my every Monday... costco and smiths! I plan my meals out Sunday night then restock at costco for meat and veggies and fruit and smiths for the rest.  I get chicken, beef and salmon at costco along with tons of veggies and fruit. I also get my coconut oil and coconut water, and agave nectar there! At Smiths we stock up on almond butter, unsweetend vanilla almond milk, terra sweet potato chips, greek yogurt, lara and naked bars, mint, cilantro and parsley, bananas and apples ( I don't like costcos for some reason). Smiths has a great health section where I can get all the random stuff I need. My favorite thing they have is the almond butter dispenser! It's the best and the almond butter is way better than the jar stuff! I get my raw honey from Alpine family clinics store by my house. I know you can get it from wild oats though too. Raw honey is totally unprocessed where as store bought honey is processed!  Also a lot of people ask what my girls eat! They do not do paleo all the time. Elsie loves peanut butter sandwiches, but I do use whole wheat bread and almond butter and either agave nectar or raw honey. I also give them yo baby yogurt which has no high fructose corn syrup and instead of fruit snacks I give them fruit leather from costco. If I am making a dinner I know they won't eat I make them annies all natural mac and cheese or  all natural chicken nuggets from smiths health section, or whole wheat noodles or whatever. Don't get me wrong though, I try to get them to eat healthy but I am not too crazy about it! They definetly eat their fair share of unhealthy food! I do my best but its not 100%. Daves been 100% because of his crossfit challenge, I eat paleo at home ( I do add greek yogurt and gf oats  which makes it not paleo so I have no idea what it is) but when we go out and don't do it, I don't have the control, I wish I did but I don't, I like certain foods way too much and I like dessert too much! Anyway there is a little bit more info about paleo for those that wanted it! Hope it helps!

Our new favorite dinner... Almond Chicken! I have a huge pale recipe book, if you want me to email it to you leave your email and Ill get it to you! It has so many great recipes! This one is so easy and fast and my girls both love it!
