I know the word “paleo” in the title is probably what compelled you to choose this cookbook over others, which means you probably care about your health. Good for you! But my mission isn’t to clobber you with the healthfulness of the recipes in this book. My mission is to inspire you with stories and tempt you with recipes that will make you want to smash in your face with joy.
I also want you to be healthy, so all of the recipes are free of gluten, grains, legumes, dairy, added sugars, and alcohol – and I’ve paid attention to things like Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acid ratios. I’ve worried about the somewhat annoying nutritional details so that you can just eat.
