Aaaaand the challenges of the not-so-paleo girl feeding a paleo man continue. My partner eats way too much meat, in my opinion. If I can convince him to eat something that contains a bit of vegan protein, I feel like I’ve accomplished something, because I know he’s going to have meat for lunch, as a snack, and then for dinner. The other issue with his diet is that I feel that the amount of meat he eats replaces his fruit and veggie portions.
Our brains need glucose to function properly. As much fun as it is to have dessert for breakfast, the healthier approach is to have a bit of fruit in the morning. I like ripe bananas because they feed my cravings for sweets without being loaded with refined sugars. The almond meal in this recipe provides a good amount of protein. The coconut provides some fibre, and I’m a fan of fibre. All in all, there are over 25g of protein in this breakfast. Not bad for a vegan paleo breakfast.
