    Cooking in a van with dietary restrictions?

    https://truenutrition.com/paleo-proteins.aspx I eat paleo also and love the grass fed beef protein from this site. I mix it with coconut oil in my morning coffee. Flavors are great and stevia sweetened.

Totally calms him down without the scary tranq sleep of the dead...
