Since I have a problem gaining weight instead of loosing weight, I'm never in tune to the latest and "best" diets proposed. However, I kept hearing about "Paleo Diets". Rather than get a huge book, this short recipe book was recommended to me. I was happy to see that my family eats just about everything in this book. With all these healthy ingredients and foods, it's no wonder my family doesn't have weight issues.NOTE: I am NOT stating if this book clearly defines the Paleo Diet correctly or not; as this is clearly not my area of expertise. Please read this review accordingly.Anyways, I found numerous ways to try some of our favorite foods, like avocado, and sweet potatoes.I just made the Baked Cauliflower and Sweet Potatoes dish. We're very cautious when someone says it's a spicy dish, because we LOVE hot and spicy food. Since I never even thought to combine these 2 foods together, I was also very interested. Since we eat halal, Islamic permissible, foods; I substituted with coconut oil and olive oil for the pork fat. Since it didn't share the temperature setting, I set it at 350 degrees for 30-minutes; but had to keep it in for 25 minutes to meet the right tenderness. It was delicious!We'll definitely be trying more of these simple dishes.Last, the images throughout the book are great too!
