Paleo, Primal, and Real Food Storage & Disaster Preparedness
For most of the last 11 years, I've lived in cities with higher-than-average risk for natural disasters. More specifically: I've lived in hurricane risk areas. From 2002-2008, I lived in the wonderful city of New Orleans, Louisiana. And yes, I was there in 2005 to see first-hand the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. I am grateful to my friends who convinced me to evacuate just in the nick of time, but just a few weeks later, I was back in the city, and was lucky to be staying with people who had properly prepared to deal with a (very) extended power outage and lack of potable tap water. For the past year and a half, I've lived in Miami Beach, FL. So, food storage and preparedness is something I've got quite a bit of experience with and take very seriously. However, I am somewhat new to the concept of maintaining a Paleo/Primal/Real Food way of eating during a hurricane. Find out what I keep in my hurricane kit now in this post.

Cajun-Spiced Chicken Livers with Bacon and Onion
This recipe is just a simple spin on the classic liver and onions you probably remember from your childhood, with the addition of bacon. Because bacon makes everything better. Additionally, you can give the livers a little (or a lot) of kick with a homemade Cajun spice mix. This recipe is gluten-free, paleo/primal, and compatible with the 21-Day Sugar Detox and Whole30.
