Wheat-free * Dairy-free * Gluten-free * Vegetarian * Vegan * Parve * Paleo
Breakfast is my favorite meal. I’m happy having breakfast for lunch or dinner or a snack.
When I first started on Paleo, white potatoes were not “legal”. That was actually my first deviation from strict Paleo. I thought of the logic of stone age gatherers finding both white and sweet potatoes and throwing away the white ones but consuming the sweet potatoes. Taking this image to an even more absurd height, I envision the conversation between mates: “Ugh dear, look what I brought home” and Ugh replying “don’t eat the white one, it’s too high on the glycemic index!”
That being said, you would think I have no objection to everyday home fries…and in fact I don’t, but I was wondering what someone who doesn’t eat white potatoes could do to substitute for home fries. My answer is jicama and fennel. YUM! A good choice even if you do eat white potatoes.
Enjoy! (more…)
