My son turned 2 last Sunday. To celebrate such a special event we prepared a totally Paleo feast. We had homemade guacamole with vegetable chips made with my newly acquired dehydrator. Then we had a grill with a wide range of meats such as côte de boeuf and chicken tandoori (grilled this time) accompanied by mixed salad. As for the birthday cake we had a wonderful Paleo chocolate cake and here is the recipe, thank you Gretchen:
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/3 cup coconut cream (the dense part from the coconut milk)
- 1/2 cup cocoa (dark and unsweetended)
- 1 ts baking soda
- 1 cup nut flour
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
Mix it well and bake about 20 min at 180°C. To make more quantity just double the portions.
Do not overcook it or it will be dry, just leave it a bit moist in the middle.
So even if if there’s a really special event going on, we can stay Paleo and satisfy everyone’s expectations for a feast (including cake!) without having to resort to cereals or dairy. Everybody enjoyed the meal and it was a wonderful day!
