What sets these recipes apart? Hey there! These recipes are some of my new favorites for summertime. They are meant to be relatively simple and only require the use of a blender, stove/oven, or a grill as specialty appliances. Like I said, simple. If you are new to Paleo, I hope these recipes make you not want to cry about not having pasta anymore. You will be ok. These recipes will prove it! Enjoy to the last drop! About the creator... Calli Holguin is a lover of all things paleo because of the way it has transformed her health. Having dealt with multiple chronic conditions for most of her life, she found they all centered around one thing, inflammation. She started her paleo journey over 5 years ago and will never look back. However, she is no stranger to the ups and downs of leaving behind food you love. This is why Calli wants to provide you with these practical recipes, so you can fight inflammation, not cravings. Photography by Kelsey Parkin PAGE 3
