Paleo cuts out grains, legumes, dairy, and processed food, which leaves meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, nuts, and seeds.
MacroPlate builds paleo meals that still hit your calorie and protein targets, with a shopping list for the week.
Your macros and Day 1 are free. No account needed.
A real plan made by MacroPlate for a 36-year-old man, moderately active, losing fat. Yours will be built from your own stats and preferences.
Using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, your resting needs are about 1,880 kcal, and with moderate activity your maintenance is roughly 2,900 kcal. We took about a 20% deficit for steady fat loss, set protein high (about 2 g/kg) to protect muscle and keep you full, and split the remaining calories between paleo-friendly carbs from potatoes, fruit and veg and healthy fats.
Pan-fry the diced sweet potato in olive oil for 8-10 minutes until tender. Add spinach and the beaten eggs and whites, and scramble until set. Serve with sliced avocado.
Toss the chicken, sweet potato, and broccoli with olive oil, lemon, and seasonings. Roast on a sheet pan at 220°C (425°F) for 22-25 minutes. Portion into containers for easy meal prep.
Drain the tuna and season with lemon and pepper. Serve with the banana and cucumber on the side.
Roast the potato wedges with olive oil at 220°C (425°F) for 15 minutes. Add the salmon and asparagus to the pan and bake 12-15 minutes more. Finish with lemon and herbs.
Slice the apple and serve with the turkey slices and almonds. Pack in a small container for on-the-go.

Mostly sweet potatoes, potatoes, fruit, squash, and other starchy vegetables.
It can be, mainly because it cuts out processed food. Calories still matter, which is why the plan sets a target for you.
