Recipe:  Paleo Chili  (courtesy of  PaleoMama.wordpress.com)

-1 large steak cut into chunks (or stew meat, whatever you prefer)
-1 large can crushed tomatoes (look for the one where the only ingredient is tomatoes)
-1 can diced tomatoes and chilis (again, look for natural here)
-1 small can tomatillo salsa (in the Mexican food aisle, look for natural ingredients in this…I think the brand starts with an E)
-large onion diced
-1/8 cup almond flour (this is optional for thickening, omit if you have a nut allergy)
-about 2 cups of beef broth
-3 cloves garlic minced or about 2 tsp garlic powder

-1 tsp ground cinnamon
-2 tbs ground cumin
-3-4 tbs chili powder
-olive oil



*This tasted very good.  It turned out fine without the almond flour.

Diet Update:
I feel like i am starting to take in too much fruit an not enough nuts and other veggies.  During the first week i struggled with energy (Could be from poor sleep and diet over the holiday weekend) but recently my energy level and performance has been good.  Also, cravings have not been too much of an issue.  I bought Loren Cordain's book and cookbook to keep me from getting bored with the same food over and over again.
