It's probably a good thing that I did not check my calendar when I decided to go grainless in June, because if I had notices that I was going camping, I probably would have just called the whole thing off. Now that I am nearly 1/2 way through I am going camping, but I am allowing myself to cheat just a bit.
I wen't to Trader Joes and picked up some unsalted Macadamia Nuts and unsalted Pistachios and dried cherries (no sugar - or anything - added. I really Like Trader Joes!)Expensive but a good paleo snacks. I also picked up some Wine to replace my standard Beer. Lastly my biggest cheats: Dark Chocolate! Chocolate is paleo, but the sugar is not. A organic bar of 72% coco should go good with the Merlot.
Lastly I saw a bag of lightly salted Sweet Potato chips and put it in the cart! Sweet Potato's are mostly paleo (starchy, but not as bad like a regular potato - It really depends on who you ask about Sweet potatoes. I don't eat them very often) Yet this is a big cheat because it was fried in Canola oil which is no good due to the polyunsaturated fats (bad) that are unstable due to heating.
Not too bad, I think. And I am excited to go camping without feeling like I am depriving myself of anything!
