Steak and salad is pretty much the quintessential Paleo meal. It’s awesome, but sometimes you need to change it up a little. Instead, try making lamb chops with a side of sautéed veggies.
Seasoning your veggies is another way to switch it up. You don’t have to eat the same old salad day in and day out.
Onion is a great way to add some extra flavor to your food and it’s really good for you (hence the reason I add it to everything). It’s full of organosulfur compounds, which have been studied for their ability to improve glucose tolerance and prevent heart disease. They may even be able to fight or prevent cancer.
Herbs and spices are another great way to add some variety to your diet. They’re inexpensive and healthy. They come loaded with antibiotics and have been shown to improve blood pressure and glucose tolerance. Fresh herbs are always preferable, as they contain more nutrients and flavor, but dried works too, if that’s all you can get your hands on.
The best part about this meal is how simple it is. Making your own food doesn’t have to mean spending all day in the kitchen. If you cook the meat and veggies at the same time, this meal should take you no more than half an hour to throw together, making it a perfect mid-week meal.
