When people hear the restrictions that AIP places on my diet, they tend to cringe. I also hear “What CAN you eat?” a lot. Real food. There is a lot that you can eat on AIP, especially once you let go of the fact that food is only for your pleasure. Food is nourishment. That’s it. Most of the recipes are really delicious!! I thought I’d round up my favorites from the interweb for those who are curious, or who are just looking to eat more REAL FOOD. I’ll start with the “desserts”.
Desserts/Breakfast- I don’t eat a lot of sweets, as you are supposed to limit your sugar intake on AIP; even to the point of limiting how much fruit you consume.
Pumpkin Protein Bars — I used this gelatin and these collagen peptides.
AIP/Paleo Banana Bread
Lunches/ Dinners– I make double or triple batches of most of these and freeze the leftovers so I have fast meals to thaw and heat up.
Caribbean Spiced Beef
Chicken Stir-Fry
Bacon Cole Slaw Stir-Fry (This is so simple and reheats deliciously.)
Balsamic Glazed Meatballs
Chicken Zucchini Poppers (omit pepper and cumin)
Prosciutto Meatloaf Muffins with Fig Jam
Beef Fajitas with Mango Salsa
Chicken Burrito Bowls
I have loved ever recipe from The Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook. I love that it is divided into sections. There are meal plans laid out for you and shopping lists if you’d like the convenience of that.
I will add to this list as I find more favorites online.
