I never seem to have good luck when it comes to trying out new paleo creations! But today I attempted paleo mayo and SUCCESS!!! It's good to keep on hand even if you aren't doing paleo- ideally, your mayo should be like this anyway (check out the ingredients in the jar that's in your fridge- yikes!)
I followed the recipe from 'The Clothes Make The Girl' which is a great resource for all things paleo! Check it out at http://www.theclothesmakethegirl.com/2010/06/03/the-secret-to-homemade-mayo-patience/
I let my egg sit out while I ran to the store to grab the lemon- make sure that you leave it at room temperature! Everything else was stuff that I had at home... here is the finished product!
As far as prep- I just seasoned some turkey & chicken breasts, and Pat is cooking them on the smoker! I thought I would try something different for meat prep :) It will be perfect for salads, to go with egg's, or just for snacking! I can't wait until it's done! I also went ahead and cut up the fruits & veggie's- if they are ready to go, I'm much more likely to eat them!
A savings tip- Walmart price matches! I don't get very much of my produce there, but if I can find a good deal I will definitely check it out! You probably already knew this- I did, but I never took advantage of it. I used to do lots of coupon's, but I honestly haven't had the time or the desire to make the time lately. I had a lady in front of me in Walmart last week who saved on almost everything in her cart, so I decided to check it out today. I didn't get much, but the carton's of strawberries were on sale for 99 cents at a local store, and avocado's were 69 cents. (compared to the regular price of almost $3 for the strawberries & $1 each avocado) If you're trying to save money, check out your local ad's before going to Walmart!
