recipe explosion!

So I've been a little lacking in the updating recipes department, so here are a few!

Meatza! The Best Thing Since... Meat

1lb ground lean meat
1 tbsp italian seasoning
1 clove crushed garlic
2 tsp salt
ground pepper
2 eggs
1/4 tsp cayenne
pizza sauce (homemade of course!)
pizza toppings (this is where your taste comes into play, use whatever you have in the fridge if you want!)

Preheat oven to 350. Use a cookie or pizza pan, oil it very well.  Combine meat, seasoning, garlic, salt, pepper, eggs and cayenne. Mix well and spread on the oiled pan, keep the thickness to a consistent 1/4"-1/2". Cook in over for about 25 minutes depending on thickness, meat should be completely cooked, it will shrink in size. Drain off fat, add sauce and toppings and pop back in the oven under the broiler until the toppings are nicely browned. Mmmm meatza!

Ignore the ugly presentation.. I didn't think I was going to be blogging this.




Red Cabbage and Beet Slaw
(taken from Paleo Spirit)

1/4 head of red cabbage
1 medium raw beet
1 carrot
1/4 red onion
1/4 cup fresh parsley
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp cider vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

I used my wonderful food processor, I used the slicing blade for the cabbage and the shredding blade for the beet and carrot. You can use a knife and finely chop them instead if you'd like. Chop the onion and parsley nice and fine. Add everything to a big bowl and stir well, let sit for at least 30 minutes with occasional stirring.





Paleo Chimichurri Sauce and Marinade
(also taken from Paleo Spirit)


3 cups fresh cilantro
1 1/2 cups fresh parsley
1/2 cup fresh oregano
3/4 olive oil
1/4 red wine vinegar
1/4 lime juice
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne or 1/2 tsp crushed chilli flakes
4 garlic cloves
1 shallot
1 jalapeno pepper

Again I used my food processor, you would need either that or a blender for this recipe. I simply added everything together and used the chopping blade until it was the consistency I wanted. This is amazing on ANYTHING! Cooked meat or as a marinade is great, even veggies! It keeps very well in the fridge.


All put together for a really yummy dinner.


I used some leftovers the next day for a really tasty lunch. Sui Choy leaves filled with diced chicken, parsley, slaw and chimichurri sauce.
