Oceane Rivers was interested yet dubious when she first heard about the Paleo diet. She says, laughing, “I thought it was something only rich people could afford.”
She chose to try it, on her own terms, though, after battling bloating and energy declines.
Oceane initially came to see that Paleo was not costly. She loaded her cart with seasonal vegetables, traded elegant pieces of meat for reasonably priced chicken thighs, and made use of cupboard basics such eggs, sweet potatoes, and almonds.

Her go-to fixes were one-pot stews, roasted sheet-pan meals, and fast vegetable scrambles. She was most astonished by how simple and fulfilling it all seemed. “I stopped depending on difficult recipes. It was just honest, decent cuisine.
Her relationship with cooking developed along with her health. “It’s empowering to know you can take care of your body without draining your wallet,” Oceane notes.
She views her method today not just as a diet but also as a sustainable means to live well on a practical budget.
