4th of July Paleo Picnic & Potluck Recipes

It’s officially summer in the U.S. That means potlucks and picnics — possibly with some of your favorite friends or family, or potentially with your annoying in-laws or even… the trickiest of all!… co-workers.

The links below will take you to previously published roundups that are packed with recipes you can take to a picnic or a potluck without tipping anyone off that they’re eating “paleo” or “healthy” or “clean.” They will just nosh and celebrate – and so can you, knowing that you’re taking care of yourself and participating in a great American tradition of eating food while sweating and enduring/enjoying people you only see on holidays.

    Goodmorning, Melissa! I made your chocolate chili last night and oh, yum! I’ll make this a lot! I also seasoned up a pork butt last night to smoke today. Just had to say thank you and I’m happy to begin my culinary adventures with your assistance. Delicious journey!
