Day 5 - Paleo Barbecue?

While at Market Street the other day we found something called Apple Butter.  When looking at what to do with it I came across a barbecue sauce recipe.  A few modifications and voila, Paleo Barbecue sauce!  I did make a mistake and added Worcestershire sauce before checking the ingredients (only 1 tsp).  It would probably taste just as good without it though!

So for those who are curious, here's the recipe I used this time.  I may make some modifications going forward.

saute 1/2 cup onions with some minced garlic

add
1 can tomato paste
1 tbsp dry mustard
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 cup apple butter
1 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 cup crushed pineapple
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (omit for paleo)

bring to a boil then lower the heat and simmer 20 minutes

I put it in a crock pot with some pork and it was pretty yummy!  The pineapple and vanilla was a substitute for brown sugar in the original recipe.  I think it worked well!

So my meals today:

Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs
Lunch: Hamburger stir fry (burger, onions, topped with tomato and pickles)
Dinner: Barbecue Pork, Broccoli, Carrots and Onions
Snacks: 2 bananas

No workout today.  Will have to get back to that next week. :)
