Hi femmeandstrong and thank you for joining us.

Generally speaking Paleo folks and low carbers try to stay away from breads, pastas etc. as much as possible. Salad and fruit have carbs as well so even if you eat the mac n cheese in small quantities, the carb intake for that meal is going to be high.

For example: 1 apple has 25 grams of carbs. This is why many who stick to a Paleo/low carb eating plan do not eat a lot of fruit, but do eat many different vegetables, meats, and healthy fats like coconut oil, nuts, olives etc. There is more information on the back pages if you are interested.
