Hey cavegirl!! Just found your blog while searching for paleo veggie dip. Love it! My husband and I just started the 10-wk Paleo Challenge at our local CrossFit (CrossFit Ktown in Knoxville, TN) and we are busy collecting recipes. I am a dietitian, so you can imagine how much time it took me to buy into some of the Paleo stuff, haha. But we started cutting back on starches and sweets a few months ago and feel great. The Challenge is tough b/c I am SUCH a foodie, and I'm used to eating whatever I want in small portions, so my struggle is finding Paleo dishes that are AWESOME, and will also fill me up. I have no intention of sacrificing flavor!! We are not in it for weight loss, so making sure we're eating enough is a challenge. We have awesome coaches, too. Anyway, just wanted to pop by! I have a food blog called The Food Hound (http://food-hound.blogspot.com) so you can see my love of all things rich and fabulous :) I'll be blogging about some of the new dishes I'll be trying- you should check it out! I love some of the ones you have posted on your site- esp the dip, which I will make today!!
