I am a firm believer that pumpkin should be enjoyed year round – I mean, who doesn’t love pumpkin spice!? One of my favorite pumpkin desserts is pumpkin pie… and when you put it into cupcake form like My Whole Food Life did then you for sure have a winner of a recipe! If you are looking for a yummy Paleo dessert to share (or not share) then look no further.
Beef and broccoli was one of the first full Paleo meals I ever tried. Over the years I’ve tried my fair share of beef and broccoli recipes and this Gingery Broccoli and Beef recipe by the Paleo Plan is one of my favorites. So much flavor and so easy to put together.
I loved sushi – unfortunately most sushi has rice in it which is a Paleo no no. I thought I was done with sushi for good until I found this amazing Paleo Sushi with Salmon & Avocado from Eat Drink Paleo. Such a fun idea and so delicious!

Changing the way you eat can seem a bit daunting and to many is no simple task. I remember how long my husband and I talked about wanting to eat healthier before we finally took our first steps in the right direction.
Since then we have had many people ask us how we got started on our Paleo lifestyle. Let me tell you – it wasn’t a quick one day deal. It was a step by step process that took quite some time until we finally found ourselves eating the way we had always talked about.
Here are some of the steps we took to help us get started on Paleo
