Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky...
My Paleo Dinner Formula is: a meat (or eggs) + a green
veggie + a starchy veggie (or sometimes a fruit) = dinner.
When I think that way it makes it so much easier for me to put meals together. The green veggie is usually a salad, collard greens, broccoli, kale, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts. The starchy veggie is often something like sweet potatoes, pumpkin, or squash.

Tip: Keep frozen greens and vegetables, like diced butternut squash, in your
freezer. They won’t go bad in your vegetable draw and you will always have an
easy Paleo side dish at the ready!
When it comes to side dishes I like to keep them super
easy, especially for weeknight meals. One of my family’s favorites is this
Paleo Butternut Squash dish. I can whip it up in a snap, I almost always have
these ingredients on-hand, and it’s absolutely delicious!
