That’s my excited face.
Oh sh*t. I can’t even hold it in. Word vomit is about to happen. I’M WRITING MY FIRST COOKBOOK!!
I’m literally tearing up just thinking about this. I’ve wanted this for so long and have gone back and forth about how I would accomplish this goal. But once I was approached by Scribe Publishing, I knew it was the right fit. Not only is the Publisher a CrossFitter as well, but she’s a paleo-er who gets my sense of humor and isn’t afraid of what I have to say. She’s so awesome.
I hadn’t thought about a writing a cookbook since my recipes are free over the internet, until readers began to ask for one. Which was very cool. It’s amazing people would actually want to purchase something when they can get it all free online. So really, I’m writing this cookbook for all of you who have supported me and wanted to show that support by purchasing a cookbook. So this cookbook will feature my favorite PaleOMG recipes along with many new recipes you won’t be able to find on the blog. Already have some good stuff for you!!
So what I want to know is, what are YOU looking for in a paleo cookbook? What is helpful to you and what would make your life easier in a paleo cookbook? Please leave your comments below and give your ideas because I’m making this cookbook for YOU all!
ANNNNNNND, omg, yes there is more. I’m now in the first steps of creating a PaleOMG app. Let’s be real here, obviously I am not the person doing it, I know nothing about anything…except sweets, but my good friend Peter who also put my website together for me, is doing the job. He’s amazing and spectacular so I’m trusting him to create something wonderful. BUT I want and need to know what you are looking for in a paleo app. I don’t do apps, I don’t really get them. I downloaded a food porn app once, but I’ve only looked at it once when I was too hungover to get out of bed. True story. So I need to know what people who actually use apps would like to see in a PaleOMG app?
Are you mad because there isn’t a recipe? Don’t you worry, there will be plenty all week!
I am seriously so excited right now! I legit have (almost) all of you recipes in a cookbook that I made already, but I will buy this in a heart beat! yay!!
Amazing!!! I’d like to see recipes that travel well like portable protein or maybe some post-workout recipes that could be stored in a lunch pail. So exciting! I’ve been making a ton of your recipes lately and they’re awesome!
CONGRATS!! I’ve loved ALL your recipes and you’ve inspired me to try things I wouldn’t try (cooking/baking) when I had completely written myself off as domestically inept. You rock and deserve this!
OMG everyone I know will be getting a copy of this cookbook! Please keep your sense of humor in it and keep the recipes simple (like you already do). I am a lazy cook and if the recipe calls for any random ingredient, I will never make it. For people new to paleo, rando ingredients can also be offputting. The thing I hear most from people who want to try paleo is that they want their hands held – give them a shopping list and a meal plan and take all the guesswork out of it.
I adore your website, your spunky personality, your dimples, and your recipes. So excited for you taking this next step!
I would definitely buy it!
I would like to see some recipes that are maybe 20 minutes or less in total cook and prep time. Since I am a college student that is very important to me, but since it’s summer I’ve been making anything I can get my hands on!
Awesome!!!!!!!!! I knew it would happen!!! So happy for you Juli!!! Congrats!!
1. Pre/Post workout snacks or meals…whichever you use.
2. A grocery list of things to have in your pantry at all times. Staple items.
3. Dishes that have 5 ingredients or less, very simple paleo ideas for very busy or lazy people.
4. Simple vege dishes. I need more ideas for carbs, but I’m lazy. The only thing I ever do is steam or bake them.
5. A chart that shows a quick go to about what kind of fruit is simple or complex. Same with veges.
I LOVE your personality and how it shines through like such a CLEAR beacon! It brings such laughter to so many of us who’ve gone down a painful road to get to this place. THANK YOU for your wit and honesty.
I can’t do nightshades, which isn’t particularly uncommon and would love more 1 dish/easy-type recipes that don’t rely on tomato so much. It knocks me out of soooo much!
Yay! I have no suggestions or wants or anything for your app and cookbook other than your awesome humor and yummy foods! Yay! Super excited for you!!!!!!!
Congrats!!!
