If you read last Friday’s post about New Year’s Eve and you made it to the very end, you read that my planned post for today was Paleo 101: The What’s, The Why’s and a comparison of Gluten Free vs. Paleo. I spent all weekend working on that article and there’s so much I want to tell you that I could not get it completed by today. I didn’t want to slap something together just to meet my schedule of posting Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so I’m putting that one off until a Monday in the near future. It is still coming, I just need time to include all the information I feel is important and check all my facts. It’s exciting and encouraging that there is lots of research being done in the paleo world and I want to share some of that with you.

In the mean time, if you need a paleo refresher, check out my What is Paleo article. All the basics are there.

So as to not leave you hanging today, I’m giving you a bonus recipe. You’ll still get a new recipe on Wednesday as planned, but today today I’m posting one I’ve had ready for a while and just haven’t felt the time was right to post.

Luckily for you, now is the time! The recipe: Paleo Biscuits and Sausage Gravy. The time is right because it’s freezing cold and we can’t get out and maybe you can’t either and these recipes use ingredients you likely have in your pantry and fridge. Maybe most people don’t have sausage in their freezer, but we usually do. When I’m eating AIP, I have sausage or ground pork for breakfast most days.

That’s a great tip, by the way. Stock up on protein when it’s on sale. Portion it into appropriate sizes for your needs and keep it in the freezer. Then make a list or spreadsheet of what you have so when you go digging around your freezer, you’ll know it’s really there and won’t give up until you find your treasure.

I hope you enjoy something warm and cozy on these bitterly cold days! Sausage gravy and biscuits would be perfect!

And for you campers out there, this is a perfect camping recipe. You can prepare the biscuits ahead of time by mixing the dry ingredients and wet ingredients and transporting them to the campsite separately. Then mix together and bake in your dutch oven. Meanwhile, prepare the sausage gravy on your camp stove. We will most definitely be trying that on our next camping trip.
