Time to celebrate the beginning of Fall with an Autumn Paleo Meal Plan. I’m so ready for all things pumpkin, plaid, and warm. There’s plenty of fresh goodness at the farmer’s markets so indulge in the end of summer treasures like tomatoes, peaches, and fresh herbs.
What makes a meal plan paleo? I make simple swaps like adding in two vegetable sides with a protein instead of the protein/starch/vegetable that many of us grew up with at the table. Dairy is replaced with nut milks and cheese options, and refined sweeteners are swapped for honey or maple syrup. Simple swaps are a great way to make some lifestyle changes that will become a regular habit over time.
