Paleo Party Saturday Night!

Bo, Bess, John, Lida, Jill, Trish, Tony, Melody, Robyn, Mike and Laura & Kathy (not pictured) all got together Saturday at Lida's house for the first "Paleo Party". Everyone brought a Paleo dish and recipes to share. Tomorrow we commit to eating strictly Paleo for 30 days. Recipes will be posted on the home page and everyone is encouraged to comment on their struggles, successes and experiences as the month progresses. The general consensus was that paleo food is delicious and easy to prepare. Planning and cooking is the key. Lida's Coconut Shrimp Curry:
5 oz green cabbage - chopped
5 almonds diced
1 tablespoon sesame seeds 1 tablespoon coconut oil
.25 oz. driend mushrooms - reconstituted (I didn't have mushrooms in my dish because I don't like them!)
1/3 cup coconut milk
6 oz frozen shrimp
1 tablespoon Thai curry paste (mixed with equal parts water to thin). I used curry powder to flavor.
dash of cayenne pepper
Saute cabbage in coconut oil with almonds, sesame seeds, and mushrooms. After about 10 minutes, add coconut milk, curry paste, and shrimp and keep cooking just long enough to get the shrimp hot. Garnish with spinach, serve...
