This no grains/paleo/primal diet has actually been a lot of fun so far lots of interesting stuff.
Tonight we did some tiger prawns on the egg then wrapped in Collard greens with sliced avo and squeezed lemon.

    Been doing wheat belly/paleo for more than a year. Lots of choices that are legal. I like collards that are still crunchy. Never thought of prawn though. Going on my list for next week. No bacon in sight. Must be an oversight.

    Hmmm... Fill me on the awful store bought bacon. Are they putting poison in it to make us robots or something?

    most of the bacon I see these days in the grocery store is too expensive and poor quality IMHO. I started home curing my own and my taste buds lit up. It's also less expensive and better quality.

    Looks great. Tell me about the collard greens. Did you do anything to them prior? Pre-boiling or anything?

    Raw washed whole leaves with the centre stem cut out. Gives it a crunchy texture. For lunch I did home made babaganush (sp) spread on a collard leaf with smoked salmon rolled up they were great. Basically have a container of leaves prepped in the fridge and its nice and easy to grab.
