Site of the Week: Jen's Gone Paleo

Jen Cereghino of Jen's Gone Paleo is going to blog four weeks of Paleo menus that are budget friendly. She is asking for comments, so I thought I would share. Jen always has yummy recipes, so I am really looking forward to what she comes up with. Here is my comment to her blog:

I am currently eating paleo with my husband for about $70 a week. Unfortunately we can't seem to do this and eat pastured meat/eggs, etc. We are instead eating the leanest meat we can afford and supplementing with sardines, and clarified grass fed butter...and lots of veggies. Like Cheryl, I am contemplating adding back in soaked beans, as it does stretch the budget. We also occasionally add in a white potato just for variety. We also IF pretty regularly to make our meals stretch. On average we have one meal and one snack per day. Not ideal, I am still working on the details and trying to get a handle on everything. After this month I am going to try to switch to grass fed beef at least and see what I can do. We don't have a freezer--just the small fridge-sized one, and live in an apartment, so no hope of getting a side of pastured beef, or pork or lamb...All the farmer's markets are shutting down about now, so I need to find organic veggies where I can. I use the EWG list of vegetables and fruits so that I can avoid buying high-pesticide crops. As for the rest I buy what's on sale...
