Josh, while I would hope most people would look to real food whenever possible, it’s not always practical. I designed the Responsibly Slim meal replacement product for people who need a quick easy source of protein that tastes great. There are very few on the market. Taste is a huge factor in making such a product. It could be the most natural, ideal product in the world, but if it tasted like crap, no one would buy or use it. So minor compromises are necessary.

Whey is the proven best source of protein for most meal replacement products, so I use mostly whey. (it has long since lost most of its “dairy” properties- ie no lactose or casein). Yes, I am also generally against legumes and soy, but the use of a small amount of soy protein isolate adds a slightly different amino acid profile (improvement)and alters flavor favorably without adding the components of the soy bean that I have problems with (like lectins, phytoestrogens, etc). It’s a perfect example of taking parts of 21st century technology and adapting them to a Primal problem. It ain’t a hunk of grass-fed beef, but it’s better than a McDs

Question. Why does your protein/meal replacement supplement have Soy Isolate Protein? Aren’t you against the legumes and soy? And isn’t there a better protein supplement that could perhaps be manufactured, instead of whey which is from dairy, no?

Love quiche – just not crustless. Having a crust makes it easier to move around, anyway, even though it is a bit crumbly. Here’s an easy, primal crust that I make for all my quiches:

1½ cups almond meal
4-5 T melted butter/coconut oil

That’ll give you a crust that’ll fit a normal pie plate, but I don’t know how many mini-cups it’ll cover. You’ll just have to play with it.

I personally dig the leftover option. I almost always cook too much meat/veggies the night before (on purpose) so that way I can heat them up in a skillet, add some eggs and voila! a delicious breakfast scramble!

I’m surprised no one has mentioned green smoothies. Blend a generous helping of something green and leafy (kale, spinach, etc.), a couple bananas and some water/ice and you get a super nutritious, delicious primal meal.

There are MANY other variations on the green smoothie, of course. Google will show you tons of recipes.

I am a freelancer and usually not on the go. I’d love breakfast suggestions for those of who have time to make it every day but unsure of what to eat. Heck, maybe I’ll just do it myself on Primal Eats. Will keep you posted!

Great Blog,
Wow, I like the convenience of the food.

I had to give up chasing squirrels and gather berries in the morning.

It’s part of my time management training.
