Update on using DropBox for the Paleo Challenge - 


After tinkering around with the system and seeing what the glitches are, here are the instructions for updating your points on Drop Box - 


1. Log into Drop Box.
2. Go to your folder.
3. Download your file.
4. Track your points on your file through the week.  
5.  Before Monday morning, upload your file into your folder and find the next week's file ready to be tracked.


You can do this every day if you like, but you MUST do it at least once a week.


Awesome!  Thanks.


Now for yummy Paleo deliciousness...

Recipe: Spicy Chicken Chili

INGREDIENTS

1.     2 tablespoons olive oil

2.     1 onion, chopped

3.     2 cloves garlic, minced

4.     1 pound skinless chicken thighs (about 4), cut into thin strips

5.     4 teaspoons chili powder

6.     1 tablespoon ground cumin

7.     2 teaspoons dried oregano

8.     1 teaspoon salt

9.     2 jalapeño peppers, seeds and ribs removed, chopped

10.   1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes with their juice

11.   2 1/2 cups canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock

12.   1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper

13.   1/3 cup chopped cilantro (optional)

1.     In a large saucepan, heat the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.

2.     Increase the heat to moderate and stir in the chicken strips. Cook until they are no longer pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, oregano, and salt. Add the jalapeños, the tomatoes with their juice, and the broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

3.     Uncover the saucepan and stir in the beans and black pepper. Simmer until the chili is thickened, about 15 minutes longer. Serve topped with the cilantro.

For those of you who miss the beans - embrace the Texas style chili!!!!
