Paleo and Couponing

Well last night my wife cooked another awesome meal.  We ate steak stir fry, with garlic, green peppers and onions cooked in olive oil oil. We also had asparagus and home made trail mix that consisted of walnuts, almonds, dried cranberries, blueberries, apples and apricots.  The best thing is my wife is what you would call an coupon extremist so we only spent a little over $8.00 for all of that plus squash, zuchinni, cabbage, potatoes and other vegetables.  So far, this diet has fit in to our budget and hopefully it will continue to stay that way.  Now I am not the expert on couponing so I am not going to go into great deal of length on that, but having a wife that is awesome at it and also teaches classes on couponing is an awesome thing.  Slowly but surely my little family is jumping on the Paleo ban wagon.  It is an awesome sight to see my girls want fruit or trail mix, instead of pop tarts and other sugar filled snacks that they have been use to eating.

Happy New Year

 

Hey guys and gals HAPPY belated NEW YEAR.   Been traveling a lot, you know home from Afghanistan, then to SC, then to FL and back.  Eating pretty dang good too.  Just last night we had Spinach Stew for dinner.  Yeah so now that I am getting my wife and kids on the diet, my wife is coming up with her own recipes.  Look forward to helping or at least sharing my experiences as I changed my lifestyle and became paleo eater.
