Paleo Thai Fried Rice! Super delicious, and not that long to make considering all the ingredients (which are all organic, all the time).
Cauliflower Rice
Ground Beef (you can use any meat, or none, this was the only kind I had in the house)
Green Onion
Bok Choy
Broccoli
Carrots
2 eggs (scrambled in at the end)
Garlic
Ginger
Coconut or Olive Oil
Coconut Aminos (a bit of a mini cheat due to the salt content, but nowhere near as bad a cheat as soy sauce)
Fresh Cilantro
Fresh Mint
Lime Juice
I steam the cauliflower rice first, while I do my cutting, and stir frying. Put the items in first that need the most cooking, like the broccoli and carrots, and then keep adding in terms of items that need the shortest cooking time. Then, add in the “rice” and coconut aminos. Finally, scramble a couple of eggs into the middle, and then mix it all up.
You can make this with any combination of items, all you need is the cauliflower rice, and coconut aminos, and the rest can be up to you! Ugga-Bugga!

Ugga-Bugga! Caveman like! Grass-fed brisket. Sometimes I go to great lengths to add flavor to my brisket, but this time I went so simple, and it still came out great!
I browned the brisket in a cast iron skillet, then while it was warm I liberally sprinkled black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides (all ingredients all organic, all the time), and then put it in a dutch oven over a bed of celery and carrots (I was out of onions). Cooked for 3 hours at 350F degrees. No onions, no sauce, no stock, no water. And the meat still came out super tender and juicy. No, it wasn’t as good as when I make it with my apricot sauce, or other preparations, but it was still amazing! Sometimes you don’t need to go through a whole production to cook great food. It’s the simplest things that make me the happiest. :-)

The other night I made your almond butter bread recipe and it was amazing! Having a gluten intolerance, I have been trying to eat as grain free as I can, and I have been missing bread in particular. This recipe is awesome awesome awesome. Now I have a question for you: how finely ground is your almond butter when you make it? and/or can you tell the difference in texture?
Interesting question. I buy whatever organic almond butter is the cheapest, and it changes from week to week at Whole Foods. I guess I could make my own, and save money, but I just don’t have the time or patience, even a Caveman has his limits to how much cooking he can do. Plus, I’m a lazy bastard.
I usually buy one of two brands depending on what’s on sale, the Whole Foods brand is creamier and the Artisana brand is more granular. The more granular brand makes for better bread, but the creamier brand makes for better almond butter to eat with fruit, or to add to my frozen banana ice cream.
But really, I buy whatever’s the cheapest every time (I’m also a cheap bastard). The loaf is already super expensive with all those pasture raised eggs I buy ($6 a dozen!), so if I can save a dollar or two a loaf, I don’t care what almond butter I use, as long as it’s organic!

One small step for Caveman… NY is a big one though, and their vote is coming up in June, so if you’re a New Yorker, get involved by visiting http://gmofreeny.net. And if you’re not a New Yorker, chances are you can find your state’s GMO labeling organization there as well!

Cooking Caveman with Jeff Nimoy - Almond Butter Bread (by TheCookingCaveman)
For those who missed it earlier, my new video!
I definitely think I will have to try this very soon. And it’s Whole30 compliant. Woot!
Jeff, would this keep well in the freezer? I feel like I may fall in love with this and want to make a lot of it, and I love making extra to freeze for easy use later.
Yes Gab, the bread freezes GREAT! I make a loaf, use what I want, and freeze the rest for when I need it again. It only takes a few minutes to defrost! And sometimes I save the ends in the freezer for when I want to make my paleo stuffing!

You may remember my review of Go Raw Bars from last June. This is a great company that makes pretty pure paleo ingredients. I’m not a fan of the bars, but I’m addicted to their Flax Snax!
Once you go paleo, one of the things you long for are snacky things like crackers or chips. Especially with guacamole, which I eat all year round (California rules!). Kale Chips just aren’t sturdy enough, and even though I love my chips made from root veggies like rutabaga and beets, it’s just takes so friggin’ long to make, and when you want to crunch on something, you want it now!
These flax crackers are 100% paleo, but the only drawback is they’re tiny. Still, I manage to scoop up some guac with them, and when their tininess gets too frustrating, I just throw some in a bowl with the guac and eat it all with a spoon.
I wrote the company and asked if they were planning on making bigger ones, and they wrote me back (always a sign of a quality food company with nothing to hide) explaining that they tried, but they would break while shipping. Bummer. Still, these are a quality paleo product (there aren’t that many out there), that provides really good crunch satisfaction.
They taste pretty plain, but I like that when dipping them into something, so I don’t mind. But my friend who turned me on to them claim the pizza flavored Flax Snax are outrageously good. I checked out their ingredients, and if you don’t mind some sea salt in your diet, it’s 100% paleo (you know me folks, it’s got to be 100% organic for me to consider it paleo, and this company really holds itself to my high standard), so those could be the go-to paleo snack for when I want something crunchy. I can’t wait to try them. They also make a sunflower flavor that has coconut amino, which also contains sea salt. I’m not big on salt, but if I eat it, it HAS to be sea salt, and a little in your diet won’t kill you.
Let me know if any other cavemen out there have tried it and what do you think!

The one on top is the end piece from my paleo almond butter bread (not toasted), with some arugula salad on top, and paleo chopped liver on top of that. Bottom piece is toasted, with the chopped liver on first, and then topped with arugula salad. Click the links to see recipes.
I fried the liver and onions in duck fat! So this is an ultra rich meal! It doesn’t take many of these to fill you up. And believe it or not, all that luxurious organic fat is REALLY good for you!
By the way, if you’ve ever had pate, or foie gras, but you say you hate chopped liver, that means you’ve never had chopped liver, because the taste is near identical. Don’t judge it by the name and look, this tastes AMAZING! Ugga-Bugga!

No trick, sometimes my bread splits, and sometimes it don’ts. Either way it tastes delicious!
