Fit Jerk Friday – Happy New Year’s!

When FJ first asked me to create a meal based on the raw diet, I realized there are a lot of versions of raw diets. I finally figured out that he was talking mostly about a Paleo-type diet as described here.

This menu might seem summery, but sometimes we need that here in Michigan!

Main course: Grilled Fish

DH helped me out here with his new smoker/grill thing. Basically he thawed some tilapia fillets, and layered lemon slices on top and sprinkled with rosemary and thyme. Could also add some cracked pepper, before or after cooking. Wrap in foil packets and grill for about 15-20 minutes.

Side dish: You can steam vegetables (broccoli is always a crowd-pleaser) or, my favorite this time of year, roast winter vegetables in the oven.

Dessert: Berry Blast

Take 1 C frozen mixed berries, 4-5 fresh mint leaves, a splash of lemon juice, and blend away just until the large chunks are broken up. Better than ice cream! DH thought it was a little tart, although I loved it. You could always add a little Stevia although that’s not exactly on the Paleo OR raw diet :-)
