Recipes with almonds

This paleo bread recipe is perfect for sandwiches and toast. Use in place of traditional bread to complete any meal. Baking two loaves at once is a good idea for anyone on the paleo diet. This bread will stay fresh for at least 4 days sealed in plastic wrap or an airtight container at room temperature, and for 10 days in the refrigerator.
