Paleo Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe

As you may have noticed from social media, my blog, my recipe books, my book, etc., etc., I usually eat Paleo!

Paleo means NO dairy, grains (gluten), refined sugar, legumes, refined vegetable oils, potatoes, and processed foods. I know that sounds like a lot, but what’s left over is food that’s (generally) really nutritious and great for our bodies – grass-fed meats, fish/seafood, fresh fruit and veggies, eggs, nuts and seeds, and healthful oils.

Now, you will always hear me say that not one lifestyle or one diet fits all – not even Paleo – BUT if you are having food, weight, or health issues, Paleo might be a good place for you to start!

I mostly eat Paleo – it’s all about balance – but I don’t like to deprive myself, so I get creative! Here is my Paleo Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe for your sweet tooth without all the guilt —
