These 30 easy paleo meals are all ready in 30 minutes or less. Most are also Whole30 compliant and many are low in carbs + keto friendly.
The meals I make the most often in real life are the ones that take just 30 minutes – period.
Yes, I might crave certain flavors or even something really specific (a Cobb salad comes to mind!) but ultimately if it takes too long to prep and cook, it’s probably not happening on a regular basis.
Even though I generally love to cook, standing in front of the stove isn’t my favorite thing to do if I have other options! And, it’s no secret that 30 minute meals (or less) have been a thing for quite some time.
I mean, I still have all of Rachel Ray’s 30 Minute Meal cookbooks on my shelf! There is something magical about a collection of recipes that are don’t require all your time and energy. So, here we go with my healthier roundup of 30 minute paleo meals. Most of these (if not all) are also Whole30 compliant, so I got you if you happen to be on the Whole30!
These meals are a mix of my own blog recipes along with some from the websites of my favorite paleo food bloggers. There’s a mix of seafood, poultry, red meat along with a variety of cuisines. In other words – there’s at least a few meals here for everyone! I hope you enjoy these easy paleo meals and find new recipes to add to your meal plan!
