If you're wondering what primal or paleo eating is all about, but don't want to invest a lot of time initially, this book may be just the right fit. More a cookbook than a book about primal/paleo, it starts with a solid but quick overview of key concepts to really shift how you think about diet, food and exercise. Then you're served up a ton of great recipes to get you started (or keep you going if you're already on this path).
I started down the primal path at the beginning of 2013 and have found great results. It required a real cleansing of my fridge and pantry and I settled on some great repeatable recipes. Lately I've gotten a bit bored with those standbys so the timing of this book is great! I've dug into a few of the simpler recipes - The Quick Piri Piri Chicken and the Quick-Cook Chive Scrambled Eggs and Bacon (note the theme "quick"!) and am excited to try the Cauliflower rice and the BLT! Great photos. Love the cartoons - makes it easy to jump around topics and the content feels accessible as a result.
Definitely recommended - if you've read the
The Primal Blueprint already, this is a nice way to do a quick refresh on the concepts (I heard it differently this time around), but it's organized in a more playful way. If you're new to primal or paleo eating, it's a great starter!
Get cooking!
The Paleo Primer is just that Pure and Simple. I loved it because it wasn't going to take days and hours to read. I sat down in one short sitting and read all the chapters. Books usually take me a while to get thru no matter if they are a page turner. This was sweet and simple. I have to admit, I haven't tried any recipes yet but believe me I went thru them page by page and drooled over the pics and ear marked the ones I wanted to try first. There have been several Primal/Paleo books out and I have read a lot of them so I have a good base of knowledge on living primally. I really liked how they were able to describe and explain and justify the art of primal/paleo eating without going over board. Again, short and sweet with enough info to educate those who have yet to jump the fence. It gives you just enough info to understand the whys and the why nots without overwhelming you with too much information. It sort of can "wet the whistle" so to speak leading you to want to educate yourself further as it doesn't answer all questions but the ones you really need to know to convince you that living primally is worth a shot. I am going to recommend this Pure and Simple book to those I run into that are always inquiring about my lifestyle and how I eat. This little jump start book will make for an excellent gift.
