Paleo Starbucks Mocha


Yes you can still have your Starbucks fix while still eating completely Paleo and not drinking black coffee!!
I went to Starbucks today and bought a Doppio espresso. (Its just two shots in a small cup) Then I went home and heated about 6 oz of coconut milk/water mixture (enough to fill the rest of the cup). I added cocoa powder and cinnamon to this while it was heating up. Then I poured the mixture into my doppio cup. soo delicious, i dont think I need a dairy latte ever again!

Whole 9 Seminar

If you are thinking about going Paleo or just want to learn more about it, check out whole9life.com I went to one of their seminars, and although I thought I already knew alot about nutrition, I learned sooo much and got the modivation to go all out Paleo, in which I have now been doing for a week and a half and already feel sooo much better! One thing I learned was that just cutting out a tiny bit of something non-paleo (such as dairy)(cream in your coffee everyday), can make a huge difference. I used think dairy was okay, but now I'm realizing, its for baby cows, not humans! Anyways, if you don't agree, try cutting it out completely for 30 days, and just see what happens. Its only 30 days of your life. The main thing that is hardest for me is not drinking lattes! But the post above this one will have a delicious alternative to lattes, check it out.
