    Meat-Based Diet

    I have officially identified myself as eating a meat-based diet. In my more primal/Paleo days, I described myself as “plant-based” since I focused on eating vegetables with some meat but now I focus on meat with some vegetables on the side.

    Taco Bowl (no fat added) + Taco Seasoning Recipe

    July 8, 2021 Barbacoa

    The two things that I made that were phenomenal over the past few months were crab cakes and barbacoa. It was my first (and so far only) time making them. The crab cakes were amazing because I followed a paleo recipe that had no filler– just egg and seasonings!! Read more

    ,

    Wild caught Alaskan sockeye salmon is one of the meats we receive in our meat subscription service along with pastured chicken, pork, and grass-fed and grass-finished beef.
