On today’s episode I’m joined by three esteemed Paleo cookbook authors, who are also health and wellness experts: Mickey Trescott, author of The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook, Angie Alt, author of The Alternative Autoimmune Cookbook, as well as co-author, along with Mickey, of The Autoimmune Wellness Handbook, and Melissa Joulwan, author of Well Fed, Well Fed 2, and the recently released Well Fed Weeknights.
To get to know them better, we wanted to find out three key pieces of information: the last thing they cooked, the last way they moved, and the last book they read. These questions lead to discussion of bacon beef liver pate, beast deadlifts, getting bucked off horses, secret agents in Prague, and suicidal Mennonites.

2 cups frozen blueberries
1 medium ripe banana, broken into chunks
1/2 medium ripe avocado, pitted
3 TBSP unsweetened creamy almond butter (or any nut or seed butter)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1-1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk, or more if needed
Combine all of the ingredients in a blender in the order listed.
Blend until creamy and smooth, adding more almond milk to thin the smoothie if needed.
Serve immediately.
Serves 2
4 large eggs
2 medium carrots, shredded (about 1 cup shredded carrots)
1 cup canned (full fat) coconut milk
1 TBSP honey
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Coconut oil, for cooking
Maple syrup or applesauce, for serving
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, carrots, coconut milk, honey and vanilla.

Heat about 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) set over medium heat. Drop 1/4-cupfuls of the batter into the skillet, using the measuring cup to spread the batter out a bit into pancake shapes. (The batter will be thick.) Cook the pancakes for about 3 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip and cook for another 2–3 minutes. Continue cooking the pancakes, adding more oil to the skillet as needed, until all of the batter has been used. Serve the pancakes with maple syrup, applesauce, or your favorite toppings.

The fact that gluten is bad is one of the pillars of Paleo and any Paleo person worth their sea salt knows that hunter gatherers didn’t eat grains and that of all the grains, gluten containing ones, like wheat and rye, are the worst.
But what if grain brain and wheat belly got it wrong? What if Paleo man did consume cereal grasses and what if there were actually benefits to eating grains?
If you’re feeling skeptical right now, we don’t blame you, when our Editor in Chief Cain Credicott forwarded the contact information for Dr. John Douillard, author of Eat Wheat, we thought that this had to be a hoax, but after talking to Dr. John, we realized that his approach towards consuming grains has a lot more in common with Paleo than we initially thought, and that it might not be a crazy idea after all.

Cooking a good beef stew is like painting a picture. There are so many delicious layers of flavor that come together to make the stew: the saltiness from the bacon, richness of the broth, umami from the meat, sweetness from the root vegetables, and a touch of acidity from the tomatoes. A good beef stew is a fun project with amazing rewards; don’t rush the cooking of this dish; rather enjoy the process!
