Wednesday, February 10th at 7pm will be the 6 week weigh in mark for the Zoners. This will also be the day that we start getting informed about Paleo and what the standards are. Our official Paleo/Zone challenge will start February 22nd. Right now me, Penga, and Neil are working on recipes and getting some more details together. Let me know if you are able to attend.
What a breakfast! Neil Jones has a two wk head start on the PALEO. Getting some cravings...he's been looking up some great recipes. Here's a good one from Performance Menu.
| Quick Paleo Pankcakes Scott Hagnas August 2007 The first recipe that I wrote for the Performance Menu was Apple Cinnamon Paleo Pancakes. They were tasty, but a bit cumbersome to cook. I have since perfected a much quicker method, while keeping the flavor. Time: 10 minutes • 2 eggs • 1/2 C unsweetened applesauce • 1/2 C nut butter (not peanut butter! - cashew/macadamia nut butter works well) • 1/4 tsp cinnamon • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract • coconut oil Mix all of the ingredients except the coconut oil in a bowl. Stir well, until you have a uniform batter. Next, use a bit of coconut oil to grease a non stick skillet. Spread some of the batter into the skillet to form a pancake, then cook over low/medium heat. Flip after 1 to 2 minutes, being careful not to burn them! Once you've cooked all of your pancakes, you can serve them with a variety of toppings. A few that I like: chopped apples and cinnamon; heated blueberries; real maple syrup; and unsweetened applesauce. Zone info: 3 servings at 1/2 carb block, ~1/2 protein block, 15 fat blocks |
