Day 1 - Rainforest Stir Fry

By 6PM, I was running on nothing but a grapefruit and pure adrenaline. I arrived home to the best surprise, a steaming hot and fresh off the stove Rainforest Stir Fry.

4tbsp olive oil
2 chicken breasts
4 roma tomatos, cut in wedges
2 red onions, peeled and cut in wedges
1 chopped baby bok choy
1 spaghetti squash, baked and stringed
1 green jalapeno, sliced
1 batch spicy mango sauce (pure mango juice, tamari, olive oil, freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, lemon juice, salt and water)

Inspired by a recipe from one of our favourite restaurants in Toronto, ironically a vegetarian spot, we've adapted this recipe to make it Paleo friendly and west coast edgy. Dig in!

Day 1 - Breakfast

It all started with an alarm, 8 hours of sleep now behind us, it was time for our first Paleo meal of the challenge.

Fresh smoothie w/ 1 banana, 1/2 avocado, 1/2 pear, blueberries, splash of blackcurrant juice, & cinnamon
Almonds
1/2 avocado 
Strawberries
2 scrambled eggs w/ jalapenos 
Lemongrass green tea
Omega3 & Vitamin D-3 supplements


After some hurried bites and a little CBC news, it only took 20 minutes to realize my plate was empty and my stomach full.  Breakfast 1/30, easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy.
