apple dijon bison burger

Here is another delicious healthy recipe from the Caveman that is super easy to make. I made it for dinner last night, and used bison instead of regular ground beef. 

Bon appetite! 

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb grass-fed beef
  • 1/2 cup shredded apple
  • 1/3 cup minced red onion
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 egg
1. Place all the above ingredients except the egg in a bowl and mix well
2. Form 3 burgers, and grill
3. Fry an egg to place on each burger, and serve (I usually serve my burgers on lettuce)

pork meatloaf-style burgers

This is a recipe I made up a while ago, and it varies a little each time I make it depending on what I have in my kitchen. The amounts can vary as well depending if you want more or less veggies in your patties. Play around with it and see what you like. Here is tonight's hearty version:

2 organic carrots, minced
4-5 small organic mushrooms, minced
1/2 organic onion (red or yellow), minced and lightly sauteed in coconut oil
lots of minced garlic, sauteed with the onion
1/2 serrano chili, sauteed
1/2 cup organic green lentils (cooked)
1 lb ground grass fed pork

Mix together in a bowl, and divide into patties


Heat a grill pan, melt coconut oil, and add patties. I love the flavor of the coconut oil with the pork and veggies.

Serve on a bed of organic baby spinach

heaven in a jar

MeeNut Butter



My friend, Mee (in the middle), makes a quadruple nut butter that is a staple in my fridge, along with anyone else who has had this "heaven" in a jar as some have called it. And if you're on the paleo diet, not to worry--you won't be breaking any rules if you eat the whole jar by yourself!

Ingredients: Almonds, Walnuts, Pecans, Macadamia Nuts with Flax Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Virgin Coconut Oil, Pure Vanilla Extract, Sea Salt

NO PEANUTS!

Now go get some. Just be prepared to be addicted (at least it's a healthy one).
