I miss cheap hot dogs in buns, slathered in ketchup and sweet relish, lol!

Im also really surprised at the paleo "junk" foods that my kids wont touch...like fruit leather and freeze dried fruits/veggies. They will eat raisins and dried cherries (when I can find them without sugar!) But no other dried fruits.

Cook sliced hot dogs in about an inch of water until heated through. Drain water. Dump broccolli into the pan and heat until cooked. Turn off the heat, topp with cheese and cover until the cheese is melted. Serve with spinach salad.

I used to make it with polish sausage but I havent found a paleo brand yet.

Do you have a Safeway/Vons/Tom Thumb nearby? I know that they have one type of uncured pork sausage. It is in next to their brand of chicken sausages-- I think Open Nature? I can't remember what all of the ingredients were, but I remember thinking that it was close enough. It might be worth checking

I've decided to go back to eating paleo, and hope to get dh involved. He wants to lose weight but loves to eat junk. He's also a big starch eater. any tips on getting him started? Also, he drives all day for work and I'd love to pack him lunches. He needs something he doesnt have to heat. I would love ideas on that too if anyone has any.
Thanks and i look forward to being more active here.

No heat lunches:

Sandwhiches (bell peppers or cucumbers or lettuce as the bread)
Salads
Snacky things like seeds, dried fruit, nuts, cut veggies, fresh fruit, etc.....

There is a blog devoted to paleo lunches.....paleobox I think? I need to find it again.
