We all know we should do it—and we <em>want</em> to do it—but it’s not always easy to pull off in the real world. It takes commitment, diligence, and planning—and who has time for <em>that</em>? In our household, with two working parents and a couple of rambunctious kiddos, the struggle is real, people. </p>\n\n<p>Sadly, as my regular readers know, I’m terrible at meal planning. Ad hoc cooking is much more my style—which is great when I have a fully-stocked fridge and all the time in the world.</p>\n\n<p>Which, unfortunately, is never.\n<img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/51155eeb1f3fd0b8c1dd947fe4ec76ca/tumblr_inline_nrrctm8bfV1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Real Plans: Paleo Meals Plans Made Smart, Tasty, & Easy! by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>Over the years, I’ve tried a bunch of different meal planning tools—from Paleo meal plans in cookbooks to static .PDF worksheets that I’ve grabbed online. But I found that none of ’em gave me the flexibility I need to adjust on-the-go: to swap out ingredients that I don’t (or can’t)eat, discard dishes I don’t like, or pick recipes based on the stuff I actually have in my house. In the end, these meal plans were just someone else’s rigid and unyielding idea of what I should make and eat.</p>\n\n<p>But then, a few months ago, I found<a href=\"https://realplans.com/?AFFID=217413\">Real Plans</a>. And suddenly, meal planning has become not just doable, but easy, flexible, and life-changing. Real Plans is a crazy-awesome whole foods meal planner that’s helped us plan, make, and enjoy home-cooked Paleo meals every night—all without the stress and panic that used to accompany my desperate nightly scramble to get food on the table.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, <a href=\"https://realplans.com/?AFFID=217413\">Real Plans</a> made such a huge difference that I decided to partner with its creators, Antony and Emily Bartlett, to offer <strong>hundreds of Nom Nom Paleo recipes on Real Plans</strong>!\n<img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/ea525010030025e56ca3dda69391b963/tumblr_inline_nrrdb5CjJ31qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Real Plans: Paleo Meals Plans Made Smart, Tasty, & Easy! by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>Okay—here’s the scoop:\n<!-- more --></p>\n\n<p>A few months ago, I happened to meet Antony and Emily at a party down in Los Angeles, and learned about <a href=\"https://realplans.com/?AFFID=217413\">Real Plans</a> for the first time. I’d already been a fan ofEmily’s blog, <a href=\"http://holisticsquid.com\">The Holistic Squid</a>, and the three of us immediately hit it off—not just because we share a similar sense of humor and passion for real food, but also because we each run family businesses committed to helping folks get off their butts and actually cook in the kitchen. When Antony and Emily shared with me that they’d been obsessively refining an insanely powerful and dynamic meal planner, I couldn’t wait to check it out.\n<img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/8d1c36d65d24d7b23b261120f54656df/tumblr_inline_nrrefhkZPe1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Real Plans: Paleo Meals Plans Made Smart, Tasty, & Easy! by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>I started test-driving<a href=\"https://realplans.com/?AFFID=217413\">Real Plans</a> as soon as I came home from that fateful trip to Los Angeles. Immediately, I was struck by its flexibility and foolproof recipes.

Although\nwell-raised meat can be expensive, I try to stick to stuff that costs less than ten bucks a pound. Cheap cuts and ground beef definitely help to stretch our food\nbudget.

I say “as\nusual” because we try to make it out to Maui once a year. Many moons ago, we were <strike>suckered</strike> persuaded into buying a time share in Ka’anapali on the west side of\nMaui. Lesson learned: pregnancy hormones combined with a tropical paradise backdrop does not lead to smart real estate investment decisions.</p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://41.media.tumblr.com/cd362e19dc497d693ade1e78e23cb23e/tumblr_inline_nqfkf5PXhH1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Gluten Free on Maui by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>This all started because when I was pregnant with Lil-O, we got a voucher for a discounted\nhotel stay in Maui from a friend, and decided to use it. The catch, however, was that we had to sit through a\ntimeshare presentation at an oceanside resort. Henry and I went into the presentation with a rehearsed cover story about how\nhaving another kid meant our budget was tighter than ever, and we simply couldn’t afford a timeshare.</p>\n\n<p>But then, we went on the tour of the resort property, and I totally folded. </p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://41.media.tumblr.com/6efe33b090e50bcd64ab241bfdc16077/tumblr_inline_nqfkgbNNtt1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Gluten Free on Maui by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>And you know what? I’m glad I did. We’ve loved going\nback to Maui every year. The kids love going to the beach and swimming at all the\ndifferent pools at the resort, and it’s just a fantastic\nplace to kick back and relax.</p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/38c7b1cb6adf8a2293058332ef980cec/tumblr_inline_nqd6up9T1D1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"GLuten Free on Maui by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>And ultimately, it’s not so much the actual resort property that we love so much; it’s the fact that we get to enjoy a week-long family bonding vacation every year in paradise. And the food situation’s pretty darn satisfying.</p>\n\n<p>Each unit at the resort is equipped with a kitchen, so we end up cooking all of our breakfasts and a handful of lunches. The rest of our meals are eaten at spots that are exhaustively researched and carefully selected (by me!). </p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://41.media.tumblr.com/bd3c7295902346b49b537f6b7ae42bd0/tumblr_inline_nqdjy4AWNU1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"GLuten Free on Maui by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p>As we mentioned in <a href=\"http://nomnompaleo.com/post/120195273383/podcast-episode-7-traveling-while-paleo\">Episode\n7 of our podcast, Travelling While Paleo</a>, we don’t stay 100% Paleo when we’re\non vacation. It’s important to remember that making a mindful choice to eat\nwithout stressing out is all part of a healthy, happy life.Lil-O\nand I just need to stay gluten-free, so that’s the one thing I insist on when\nwe eat out, no matter where we are.Although I shared many of my Maui\neats on <a href=\"https://instagram.com/nomnompaleo/\">my Instagram account</a> with the hashtag <a href=\"https://instagram.com/explore/tags/nomnommaui/\">#NomNomMaui</a>, I thought I’d compile our latest\nfood finds in one place.

Instead of the usual format (which involves sitting around our dining room table and marching through different segments), we thought we’d drag you through a typical day in our lives—from the time we get up in the morning to when we collapse in bed at night.</p>\n\n<p>It’s not that we think we’re super-interesting people. The opposite is true, actually. But when we asked you, our listeners, about what you’d like for us to cover on this podcast, one idea that came up more than once was going through a day in the life.</p>\n\n<p>For our cookbook, Henry drew me a comic about a day in the life of a zombie drug dealer – in other words, me, or at least me a year ago. That’s because at that time, I was working as a full-time night shift hospital pharmacist. In other words, I was a professional drug dealer. However, ever since I quit my night job about a year ago, our lives have changed a lot—and it’s about time we provided an update to reflect what our life looks like now that I’m a full-time mom, cookbook author, blogger, home cook, app creator, podcaster, and whatever else it is I do.</p>\n\n<p>(Spoiler: We reveal that our lives are totally ordinary, and that we’re not much different from most busy families.)</p>\n\n<p><!-- more --></p>\n\n<p><strong>Zombie Drug Dealer No More</strong></p>\n\n<p>For those of you who didn’t know, in my former life, I worked as a night shift pharmacist (a.k.a. zombie drug dealer) for 12 years. Even though I thought I’d hacked shift work—check out my post on <a href=\"http://nomnompaleo.com/post/55156756199/surviving-the-night-shift\">Surviving The Night Shift</a>—I eventually realized that working graveyards wasn’t sustainable. After I <a href=\"https://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/201404/the-night-shift\">was interviewed for an article about night shift work in Psychology Today</a>, I thought seriously about the sacrifices required of long-term shift workers: family time, sleep hygiene, health. A month later, I quit my job and wrote about my decision in a blog post entitled <a href=\"http://nomnompaleo.com/post/90787208973/independence-day\">Independence Day</a>.\n<img src=\"https://41.media.tumblr.com/e17c0f88a32d3e5b6c8044ed8c2c50dc/tumblr_inline_npihgifZEt1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Nom Nom Paleo Podcast Episode 8: A Day In The Life by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/></p>\n\n<p><strong>The Early Birds Get the Coffee</strong></p>\n\n<p>Henry wakes up at 4:20 am three days a week to attend the 5 am class at <a href=\"http://www.crossfitpaloalto.com\">CrossFitPaloAlto</a>.(Yes,heknowsIthinkit’scrazyofhimtowakeupthatearlytoexercise.)Hestartshismorningoffwithafreshlybrewedcupofcoffee,whichwebothagreeisfineifyou’rehealthyandwellrest

Every time we passed it, he would look longingly at the cold-pressed juice concoctions in the refrigerated case, and tug my arm. Eventually, I relented, and we joined the queue of sleep-deprived adults in line for the the “Back to Normal” and “Hangover Be Gone” remedy cleanses.</p>\n\n<p>My ten-year-old (who, for the record, was not hung over) opted instead for a bottle of “Aloha Sunrise,” a blend of watermelon, coconut water, lemon juice, and salt. But then, I saw the sticker price on a single-serving bottle: $11.00.</p>\n\n<p>Seriously?</p>\n\n<p>By then, we were at the front of the line, and Big-O already had a big anticipatory smile on his face, so I pulled out my wallet. And to be honest, the beverage <em>was</em> pretty darned refreshing.

While reasonable minds may disagree, I think my sister’s Thai-inspired, umami-packed roast chicken would win in a head-to-head taste test. As Lil-O told one of his skeptical friends, “Green Chicken might sound gross, but it’s super good.” Plus, I recently learned (through kitchen experimentation!) that you can and should make a double batch of Green Chicken ’cause you can freeze half of it for a future meal. If you’re keeping score, that’s another point for Green Chicken!</p><img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/e7abe2104747b1364a4f8ace230c4fe3/tumblr_inline_no8zggeZOY1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Recipe Rewind: My Sister's Green Chicken (Make-Ahead & Freeze Version) by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/><p>Last Wednesday, I was tasked with making several batches of Fiona’s\nGreen Chicken for a video shoot. Henry was out of town on business, and even\nwith the addition of two extra mouths to feed (our pals Sidney and Matthew), I\nstill found myself with a bunch of extra chicken on my hands. What’s a gal with THREE family-size batches of chicken to do?</p><p>Answer: Roast two giant trays of chicken. Eat one, and refrigerate the rest of the cooked chicken for quick breakfasts and lunches over the next couple of days. As for the uncooked chicken still marinating in a storage bag, squeeze out any extra air, seal up the bag tightly, and toss it in the freezer for future food emergencies.</p><p>And guess what? It didn’t take long for a food emergency to arise.</p><!-- more --><p>Just a few nights later, we got home from a busy day with the boys and—surprise!—didn’t have our dinner-prep act together. Instead of calling for takeout, though, I made a beeline for the ready-made solution in my freezer. I grabbed my frozen block of green poultry and ran it under hot\nwater to quickly thaw it before popping it in the oven to roast.</p><img src=\"https://40.media.tumblr.com/6361e0c29f1edbfe9c8d702930882485/tumblr_inline_no8z83muIu1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"Recipe Rewind: My Sister's Green Chicken (Make-Ahead & Freeze Version) by Michelle Tam http://nomnompaleo.com\"/><p>(FYI: <a href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/08/dining/a-hot-water-bath-for-thawing-meats-the-curious-cook.html?_r=0\">This article in<i>The New York\nTimes</i> says it’s a-OK to use a hot bath to quickly defrost meat</a>.

In fact, I eat more vegetables now than I did when I was a semi-vegetarian! Listen in as we chat about our favorite vegetables and how to buy, store, and cook them.

In case you haven’t noticed, we don’t hoover meat down our throats 24/7. In fact, our plates are usually crammed with vegetables—so let’s talk about how I buy, store, and prep our favorite edible plants. I discuss the benefits of joining a CSA (community-sponsored agriculture), how to make the most of the veggies in your CSA box, and the best time to pick up a box at your neighborhood drop-off spot.</p>\n\n<p>If you don’t have access to farmers’ markets or CSAs, just do the best that you can. Refer to the Evironmental Working Group’s helpful lists to check whichproduce items are best bought organic and which ones have less pesticide. Once you stock up on healthy produce, I let you in our family’s favorite vegetable recipes and my inexpensive kitchen gadget picks to make the most of your vegetables. Plus, I share my favorite salad hacks, and the kids crack some vegetable jokes, too.</p>\n\n<p><img src=\"https://41.media.tumblr.com/f56b308e890355b65aba6472489109ae/tumblr_inline_no06vvhxrf1qdei8m_540.jpg\" alt=\"image\"/></p>\n\n<ul><li>Click <a href=\"http://www.localharvest.org/csa/\">here</a> to find a CSA near you.</li>\n<li>I was a member of Mariquita Farm’s CSA for many years.

And you can see his focus on health in his Portland restaurant, Departure, where guests have the option of delicious gluten-free, vegan, and Paleo menus, in addition to the nightly dinner menu. Plus, he’s won a slew of prestigious awards, including Portland’s Hottest Chef of2012, Chef of the Year 2013 by the Oregon Department of Agriculture, Eater’s 2014 Chef of the Year, and a 2015 James Beard Award semi-finalist for Best Chef Northwest.
