Kiwi Strawberry Açaí Bowls are a nutritious and delicious vegetarian breakfast. I’ve been going through a sizeable bout of FOMO (fear of missing out) these last few weeks.

Happy Mondayyyy! You look like you could use some vitamins. Just like the title says, I have a wee announcement for you. Don’t be silly, it has zero things to do with buns, ovens, rings, escrow, contracts of any kind, the lottery (much to my dismay), or anything that rhymes with shmuhmitment. I’ll give you …
A detoxifying mango smoothie with golden beets and turmeric – packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. And all the fiber.

SURPRISE!
If you’ve followed along for a while, you know I’ve been posting Vegetarian Meal Plans every Saturday for quite a long time.
Well, I’m so psyched to introduce you to a brand new meal plan that has been a long-time coming!
Why Paleo?
After giving it much thought, I decided I wanted to stick to meal plans that are closer to the way I actually eat.
I have a great deal of vegetarian and vegan followers, but the reality is, I am nowhere near plant-based. I wanted to provide a valuable resource for that sector of my audience, and I’m so happy I could for so long.
While I absolutely eat a ton of vegetables (like 6 lbs per day) and sometimes meatless meals, the majority of what I eat includes animal protein and is closer to a paleolithic diet.
Put simply, meat, vegetables, and rice is where I thrive, and because the majority of my recipes reflect that, I can only assume the majority of my audience eats similarly to me.
Authenticity and transparency are very important to me, so while I loved those plant-based meal plans, I felt the right thing to do was to stick with my own style of eating.
If you loved the Vegetarian Meal Plans, you can still access old ones in my archives (I’m certainly not deleting them! You have PLENTY to choose from). The other ladies I made the meal plans with are still doing them, so you can still get new veggie meal plans if you go to their blogs.
About These Paleo Meal Plans:
I’m collaborating with my friend Natalie Perry, who writes the blog, Perry’s Plate, to make these plans. You may recognize Natalie’s site and name, as I’ve spoken about her a number of times on this site throughout the years. She’s my bud!
Natalie is a two-time cookbook author, mother of four, lives in Idaho with her husband and kids, and creates AMAZING whole food-centric recipes. We share the same food philosophy and lean toward all-natural whole food meals.
Each meal plan will consist of six dinner recipes and one dessert. We will provide a printable grocery list so that you can easily shop for your meals for the week. We’ll be posting a meal plan every other Saturday, and it will be up at midnight pacific time.
If you use Sunday as your meal prep day, simply print out the grocery list on Saturday for your run to the store, and get to prepping for the week!
Additional Notes:
For each recipe, we include prep ahead suggestions (if applicable) as well as call out the special diets it fits, and any possible substitutions.
Because Natalie and I both believe in the importance of eating seasonally, every meal plan will include seasonally-appropriate meals.
Our goal is to make these weekly meal plans as simple and useful to you as possible. Feel free to give us suggestions on what would make your experience better! We are here to provide value to your life and ideally make nourishing your body easier.
That’s it! If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with Natalie or I! I hope you love these plans!
Without further adieu, here is week 1’s meal plan!
Enjoy!

It’s brunch season!
Because Easter and Mother’s Day are approaching, I figured it is high time we whip up a highly brunchable lemon poppy seed scone that is both paleo and vegan. When entertaining others, you’re bound to end up with a guest or twelve who eats dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free, grain-free or some combination thereof.
It has been ages since I’ve made scones, and recently I’ve been on a lemon poppy seed kick. Did you check out my Vegan Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes? They’re mouth-wateringly fluffy and moist.
Similarly, these vegan paleo lemon poppy seed scones are incredible crowd pleasers! PLUS, they cover so many dietary restrictions (hello, Pegan! <- paleo/vegan).
These scones are basically a modern marvel. They turn out flaky with a crispy outside yet are still nice and moist on the inside. I find them to be perfectly sweet – not too sweet yet not lacking in sweetness. They are so nice and zesty in all their lemon poppy seed glory – a perfect brunch recipe for sharing with friends and family. I made them for friends I was visiting and they went absolutely berserk over them!
