Paleo Chicken stuffed with kale.
After a day at work I was shuffling though the fridge trying to figure out what I was going to have for supper and so I created this.
Ingredients
(serves two)
2 organic chicken breast (skinless,boneless)
4 strips of bacon
5 kale leaves (wash and remove from veins)
1 tsp fresh thyme (minced)
1 tsp fresh rosemary (minced)
3 cloves of garlic (minced)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375, Slice chicken in half (not all the way to the egde) and unfold (like they do with the bread at subway, lol). Mix kale, herbs, garlic and pepper in a bowl and spread evenly on both chicken breast. Roll chicken breast from the bigger side all the way down to the tip. Wrap two slices of bacon around and secure with a toothpick. bake for 30-40 mins.
Enjoy!
Paleo Grass Fed Roast Beef
I put a roast in the slow cooker at least once a week. There really isn’t a trick to it and they all come out TENDER! My roasts literally fall apart when I remove them from the cooker.
Why Grass fed???
Typical factory farm-raised cows are fattened up with huge quantities of grains & soy that are not their natural diet & also given unhealthy doses of hormones, antibiotics, etc.
When cows are healthy and eat the diet they were meant to eat naturally, the meat is extremly healthy for us. Grass-fed meats are a high quality source of proteins and are also a great source of healthy fats.
For example… When cows eat mostly grain and soy, the fat composition of their meat becomes higher in inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids and lower in omega-3 fatty acids (which are lacking in modern diets).
On the other hand, when cows eat grass, their meat becomes higher in omega-3s and lower in omega-6, achieving a more natural balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fats. In addition, grass-fed beef also contains much higher levels of conjugated linoleic acid, which has shown benefits in studies for losing body fat and gaining lean muscle mass.
If you haven’t seen the documentary FOOD inc. Rent it, buy it….Everyone should be aware of what’s going on with our meat before we eat it or feed it to others.
Ingredients
3-4lbs Grass fed Roast ( any cut will do)
4 whole cloves of garlic cut in halves
1 cup of water
1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon of fresh thyme
1/2 of an onion chopped
fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
In a preheated frying pan (on med) pan sear the roast on each side to lock in the juices. Place into slow cooker with 1/2 the water. with the other 1/2 of the water add to the frying pan and scrape the pan for the drippings and add to the roast. Add the garlic, rosemary, thyme, onion and pepper to the slow cooker. Place lid and cook on low for 6 hours.
It fell apart while removing from the cooker.
We buy our beef from Peter 613-347-1124…Here are a few pics of the
cows on his farm. Peter is very passionate about his cows and what he does.
