Today I’m going to talk about Cheat Day. What is cheat day? One day out of the week I break my strict paleo diet and go hog-wild. In the past I’ve always eventually broke the diet and then getting back on from an unplanned diet is hard. The guilt associated with breaking from the diet is terrible too. So now I plan for it. There are some very good reasons why you should too. I’ll also tell you how taking breaks from most things brings you back with a stronger passion.
Making Your Own Camping Meals? Because isn’t it sure nice to sit down and eat a nice hot meal after a long hike and setting up camp. I know I enjoy it, but you know what I don’t like? The price for one. Mountain House meals easily fall into the seven dollar per package range. The price of some good meal’s at restaurants. Which wouldn’t be too bad for a gourmet meal. But is not a gourmet meal, its slop. The food is full if terrible ingredients, fillers, gmo/ roundup sprayed, poor quality food and food that I would prefer not to eat.
I like to try my best to eating a Paleo diet. No grains, dairy or legumes. Unfortunately those ingredients make up the basis for most freeze-dried camping foods. Along with ingredients I can’t even pronounce.
I would love to have the opportunity to buy an organic paleo freeze-dried meals for camping. Until Paleo Meals to Go there were no options for that. I’m going to go over some options that are available store-bought.I’ll show you how to make your own high quality paleo camping meals. Learn how to start making your own camping meals at home for much cheaper and eliminate the extra junk you don’t need.
Pemmican is a natural super food. It’s the original energy bar. Pemmican is dried meat with rendered fat in a 50/50 mixture. Dried berries and honey are also added depending on the season.The Native Americans created Pemmican. It was eagerly adopted by the Europeans that came. For those reasons I have been very eager to try some but finding it locally is impossible.
I’ve seen a few places online that have traditional pemmican for sale. The reviews however are mixed. Besides that I’m a DIY guy so I decided to make my own. Once again I ran into an issue. You can’t just go to the grocery store and buy tallow. So I got to thinking about using coconut oil. The list of health benefits is long, it’s a solid up to 76 degrees, has a neutral flavor and the big part is you can find it everywhere and fairly cheap.
I’ve decided to show you How To Make Sauerkraut Easily With Free Supplies. I enjoy having it once a week or so. The store bought stuff is nowhere near as good as a homemade with live culture.
I’ve seen fancy crocks online but at a hundred bucks that way to expensive for me. I used a free icing bucket from Walmart, a two dollar plate, an empty gallon jug and some cheesecloth I had laying around. After some searching, I found a simple process for making kraut.
