It seems what characterizes the paleolithic diet most is its spirit of experimentation. To eat the cavemen way is to tread uncharted paths, to sail unknown sees, to boldly venture out where no modern man has gone before ... at least, that's how it seems to me. From microwave dinners, pizza and pasta to a diet consisting of only fruit, vegetables, meat, fish and nuts (and some cheese 'for medical reasons' (to quote Cornell)), that's something else entirely. And there are no guidebooks, recipes and so on for this. No 'Sonja Bakker'-books that spell out menu's for nine weeks total up to the 1 apple and 1 slice of bread with cheese allowed in between. No, no programs, or detailed regimes for these brave men and women, venturing forth in this unexplored territory.
As Cornells pictures have shown he is quite the experimenter... I'm a bit more conservative I think (or used to make my choices the easy way (never change a winning combination)), but once in a while I try out something new.
So this evening I tried a new combination:
- onions (4 of them, cut in pieces)
- brussel sprouts (500 grams, cleaned the Cornell-way, cut in half)
- pre-cleaned carrots (500 grams, cut in slices)
- minced meat (300 grams)
all stir fried and seasoned with some curry, paprika and pepperpowder, and some sweet chili sauce.
Tasted good! The sprouts and the carrots go well together. I had enough for two extra meals, so I will eat this again tomorrow and the day after ...
Oh, and it's reasonably priced too!
