Looking for an awesome Paleo loaf recipe that is super-easy to make? You have found it.
We love Paleo, mainly because it directs people back to whole foods, focusing on nutrient-dense ingredients, sourced primarily from vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. There is a common (mis)belief that a Paleo is just an excuse to eat lots of meat but you don’t actually need to eat to any more. We also don’t fully agree that you shouldn’t eat legumes! This Paleo loaf is packed with nuts and seeds, with added egg & a touch of salt. You’ll love it!
This loaf is so good that it would be a welcome addition to any low-carb diet, including the awesome UltraLite Weight Management Program.
This Paleo loaf is firm. You might even say “solid” and it holds together really well. It is also really quick and easy to put together, just one hour to bake
