My girlfriend and I will be embarking on the Whole 30 diet for the next 30 days. It's not much of a change to my diet except for (1) no tortillas; and (2) eliminating all my fueling options for long rides.
I generally would use a few bananas (which is acceptable); however, I would normally back them up with clif bars/shots and scratch labs in my bottles. That puts me in a not so comfortable place with finding other options. Generally, Larabars are "on the plan;" however, they are very high in fat. I have a copy of Feedzone Portables, but I don't think anything in that book provides grain-free options.
Any suggestions for a homemade fueling option without added sugar? I'm going to go on a limb and assume I will get a lot of my carbohydrates from dates and/or sweet potatoes while I am training. I am trying to find a recipe that uses sweet potatoes as a base, as I feel like the carbohydrates from the potato would be more easily digested (than eating pure dates).
