The philosophy in the kitchen is that the food needs to look as good as it tastes and we strive to achieve this everyday.

If you are new to the primal lifestyle, you might be asking, “What does eating primal mean?”
The simple answer often given is to “eat like a caveman.”
While that’s the general idea, no one expects you to go out and forage for your food.
Living primal means eating the way humans had adapted to for 200,000 years prior to the development of modern agriculture. That means a diet high in protein, fat, and low-GI carbohydrates.

Our ingredients are “real foods” – they are unprocessed and free of preservatives. Primal Kitchen chefs do not use grains, wheat (flour), refined sugar. We use real food like quality fresh produce – vegetables, herbs and fruit, locally supplied meat and eggs.
Meat
All of our meals are made with high quality meat cuts sourced from local suppliers.
Our regular meals have around 150 grams of high quality protein and warrior meals have 250 grams of protein.
Produce
We source our fruits and vegetables from local growers, and change the weekly menu based on what is fresh and in season. Our primal meals are fueled with delicious, wholesome vegetables, utilizing lower-carb options to give you the healthiest meals possible.
Nuts and seeds
Primal snacks and meals use a variety of tree nuts and seeds to add nutrition as well as great flavour to your food.
Flours
People everywhere these days are hopping on the gluten-free bandwagon, but many do so without even knowing what gluten is or why it is harmful. Our meals and packaged products use gluten-free/grain-free flours including coconut, almond, tapioca, and flax meals. These healthier choices are great for baking, though like anything, should be eaten in moderation as they are very nutrient-dense.
Oils
All of our primal meals and snacks are cooked with healthy fats and oils, including coconut oil, olive oil, ghee, and animal fat.
Sweeteners
We occasionally use sweeteners to help make our primal food delicious, but always use natural, healthier options including coconut sugar, manuka honey, blackstrap molasses, date paste, and high-quality dark chocolate. Though these sweeteners are much healthier choices than refined sugars, they should still be eaten in moderation.
Dairy
The occasional use of dairy is part of what separates “paleo” and “primal” eating. We occasionally use full-fat dairy products in our food, but will always offer a dairy-free option for those who cannot tolerate dairy in their diets.
What you won’t find on our menu
Living primal means we will never use grains, gluten, refined sugars, hydrogenated oils, artificial sweeteners, soy, legumes and artificial stuff. Your body will thank you!
We like to give our customers some choice in regards to what they would like to put into their bodies so we have come up with a few meal options which covers some of the other forms of healthier eating.
Standard Primal Meal
The standard primal meal consists of a protein component and usually 2-3 different types of vegetables based on the menu.
They do contain dairy in them if there is a dairy component listed. These are usually creme fresh, sour cream, butter, yoghurt, cheese.
The only carbohydrates used are complex carbohydrates or low-GI starchy vegetables. These are usually kumara, pumpkin, swedes
Dairy Free Option
The Dairy Free Option cuts out all Dairy from any of the meals and this will give you the full Paleo Option.
Dairy is considered a grey area in Paleo Eating however we do include it in our standard option as we believe that it does more good than harm however there are others who advocate against it.
This option will be perfect for those who are lactose intolerant and cannot have any dairy in their diets.
Low Starch / Keto Option
The Low Starch option cuts out the starchy vegetables from our meals. These will be kumara, pumpkin, parsnips and swedes.
The carbohydrate component is substituted with another vegetable in place of that.
We have opted not to remove the carrots and beetroot to allow a bit more variety into the meals(it tends to get a bit boring if we take too much out). If you do not wish to have carrots or beetroot in your meals please state this on your order notes.
This option is perfect for those who wish to eat only meat and vegetables.
Please type in what option you would prefer in your Order Notes. If it is left blank your order will be our standard primal meal.
