60+ Five Ingredient (or less) Paleo Recipes

I am more of a 10 ingredient gal myself. I am just a big fan of bold flavors and spending time in the kitchen. But, more and more lately I find myself looking for simple recipes to make. Between, work, parenting and the holidays, I feel like a chicken with my head cut off most days. I imagine most of you relate!

Too many days lately, 5 PM is fast approaching, I have a hungry toddler and haven’t even thought about dinner yet. I decided to tap into some of my favorite bloggers and make a big list of Paleo recipes that require 5 ingredients or less!

I have collected entrees, breakfasts, veggies/sides, snacks, sauces and even treat recipe that only require 5 or less ingredients! I hope you find this list as useful as I have! Enjoy!

    Hi Arsy, Thanks for including my Honey + Coconut Oil Roasted Figs. I love the 5 ingredient or less concept; if you’re using seasonally fresh, quality ingredients, simple is always better {and easier, and faster too}! Lots of love to you this holiday season friend,XO SHERRIE

    Thanks for including my decadent dairy free chocolate mousse Arsy! This is SUCH a fantastic idea for a post – which I have bookmarked and will be coming back to look at time and again when I want simple inspiration!

      Thank you so much for ordering my book! It is really meat heavy, I remember you don’t eat much meat, right? But, there is a small veggie section.

  6. Sally says

    Nice list! Thanks for all of the recipes. I have to admit though I have never heard of making pancakes out of bananas and eggs. hmm.

  7. Eric says

    What an awesome list of recipes! I’m a Certified Holistic Health Coach & one of the assignments I give my clients is to find “X” number of crock pot meals & “X” number of sub 30 minute meals, all whole food based, of course. This is definitely going on my recommended list. Thanks for putting this together.

    Thanks for sharing Mindful Mama’s buffalo chicken wings! We LOVE them for a fun dinner/appetizer that feels like you\’re \’cheating\’ on something bad– Thanks again!! Love this post!

  9. Cassy @ 5-Ingredient Paleo says

    Wow! Thank you so much for including one of my recipes on here (Vegetable Cauli-fried Rice). I am feeling so blessed!

    Thanks for this list! I truly dislike cooking and food prep in general, and due to allergies I must eat fairly plain anyway (I have to mostly avoid spices and herbs, but I do enjoy the natural flavor of foods). All I do is simple and basic – the bare minimum to get by. This really helps!
