Greek dinner and avocado chocolate pudding

Appetizer mango salsa served on cucumber with Bree and Feta cheese
Hummus, Tzaztiki, beef and chicken also had falafel and couscous 
Dessert avocado chocolate pudding.
This one for. me was the most interesting thing to make
Just avocado with cocoa powder, vanilla and honey. I melted coconut oil and cocoa powder and poured it on top and let it cool down so it turned into chocolate. I also made little chocolates so good.
Berries always works in deserts. 

All had a nice filling dinner. This dinner was all primal. 
Had a fun day cooking and preparing all the food with Eric 


Jonas also enjoyed his evening. He was so happy to have Siren read hike his bedtime story. What great neighbours we have

Been a bad blogger

Lots happening in life and it's making me a bad blogger.
As most people now know we have a baby on the way. Also causing me to be more tired and wanting to rest more.
We have done one month full paleo again, but are now more back to primal. I find it hard to stay away from dairy although I feel better without it.
Had a really nice trip to Iceland, went with a friend from there that it just as fixated on food, health and training as me. So our trip went from the gym to massages to spa, to health food stores, visits, blue lagoon and hiking. Was so relaxing and much needed. Nice to travel with someone that understands :)
Eric has joined me in the gym which I love. Well exept when he sings for me in class lol. I love that man ;)
Exercise for me has to slow down now as my pelvic is not at it's best with this pregnancy. That really sucks for me. It's hard to wrap my head around not exersising so much. But gotta listen to my body.
Anyways I'll get better at blogging soon. 
Just wanted to say hi :) 

Here is a new book I've stared reading. Recommend it to everyone that are interested in paleo. ( for people in Norway as information is hard to get in Norwegian)

Jonas calls it Dinner Egg Cake

When we went to Iceland this weekend we had this kinda dish in a Health Food Store/ Resturant. 
And it was so good I had to try to and recreate it. 

Eggs and almond flour mixed together

Fried up some chicken 

Cut up pepper, kale and garlic

Added some curry, cummin and paprika spice

Green pesto and a sprinkle of parmigian cheese cheese on top. 

8 eggs
4 chicken breasts 
One pepper 
2 big leaves of kale
2 cloves of garlic

Served with a spinach on the side
And also had some carrots and cauliflower on the side

Jonas keeps asking for more and more spinach that he dipped in balsamic vinegar. 

Now back to watching the soccer game Norway-Iceland
Don't know who I'm cheering for...

Eric makes wicked breakfasts

And Jonas helps crack all the eggs 

One is with eggs and salmon and one is eggs and bacon!
Yum! 


Got any of these?

You should probably think about quitting gluten.
Just start googling your thing and gluten. Then google what you have and paleo.

Stupid gluten=pain

Two days ago I was not paying enough attention and got gluten in my food. 
Immidiatly (about an hour after eating) I felt joint pain in my hands and knees. And like I had water under my feet. Swelling!
And for two nights now I have almost had no sleep, major burning sensation in my stomach and headache :(
Last night I was up crying in pain. It really sucks! 
I understand more and more how bad gluten actually is and why people feel like something is wrong without really understanding what it is. That is how I was feeling since I was about 14. 

Now I feel 100% better, well exept when I'm not paying attention and get it in my system!
Wonder how many days it's gonna take to get over this one :/
