So I want them to eat several nutritious foods, hence the desire to have side dishes. If it were just me, or just my husband and me, then I know we could eat the same way you eat....a main when we feel like it or a side-dish when we feel like just having that. Peace, LillianLIke you, Lillian, I also have to feed a family, and one of non-paleo eaters, too. And I like to keep cooking to minimum. I have found it helpful to keep marinated vegetable salads or slaw, waldorf salad, green salad, soup, etc. on hand to serve along with whatever meat I'm preparing. I find a salad plus one other side is more than adequate, and if they want a non-plaleo extra, they can add a wheat roll In that vein, I could use some help with meal planning too. My husband is a student, and we depend on a food co-op for most of our groceries. Meats available to us there are quartered chickens, pollock fillets, ground beef, sausages, occasionally ground turkey, and pork chops. I need 1) a kick butt paleo meatloaf recipe 2) ideas for any of these other meats, especially the pollock fillets, as its tricky to get them to taste good.
