It’s been a little over a year that I “officially” went Paleo and began sharing weekly meal plans featuring many of my favorite Paleo blogs. Elana’s Pantry has been an important part of my journey and her recipes have become a staple in our kitchen.
Elana’s paleo recipes are straight forward, simple and easy to accomplish – not to mention delicious. Never intimidating, every level chef can master. Whether you’re a wiz in the kitchen or can barely boil water, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
After finding her blog and accomplishing several recipes, I purchased Elana’s first cookbook The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook
With her follow-up cookbook –Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry: Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Dairy-Free Recipes – I waited impatiently for months to get my hands on a copy. It was worth the wait.
Paleo Cooking is filled with recipes that the entire family will love.
- 91 Paleo recipes for entrees, vegetable dishes, condiments and healthy desserts
- 61 nut free recipes
- 60 egg free recipes
- 17 meat recipes
- 73 vegetarian recipes
We’ve tried just about everything- ice cream (forget commercial brands – this is amazing and no artificial ingredients), chicken nuggets, crepes, bagels, kale avocado salad, Paleo bread and more.
I love that Paleo Cooking provides tips for stocking your pantry, Paleo guidelines (great for beginners) and sources to find all the products used in each recipe.
Elana’s Paleo journey began when her son was diagnosed with celiac disease, it became a necessity to transform her family to a gluten-free, grain-free diet. Unwilling to cook separate meals for her family, she began exploring how to prepare gluten-free food that tasted like regular food.
This is what drew me to her blog – elanaspantry.com from the beginning. Her ability to take recipes we all love like chocolate chip cookies, bread, chicken nuggets and rice and not sacrifice taste for being healthy.
