Steak and Faux-tato Dinner

I made up this recipe last night for my mom! :) It was YUMMY! 

Steak and Mashed Faux-tatoes

Steak
1 large grass-fed steak tenderloin
2 cups red wine
1/2 cup grass-fed organic butter/ghee
1/2 tsp cumin
pinch of sea salt

Place steak in a medium sauce pan with all ingredients. Cover and let it cook on low for 35-45 minutes (depending on how well you like your steak done). After steak is cooked pour juice into a separate bowl leaving only a very little bit in the pan and set aside. Char the steak for 5-7 minutes. Remove and slice on a plate.



Gravy
Juice
3 tbsp. coconut flour

Pour juice back into the pan on low and whisk every couple minutes. In a cup combine coconut flour with water until you make a smooth thick paste. Gradually add the paste to the juice and whisk vigorously. Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes and continue whisking.

Faux-tatoes
2 large cauliflower heads
1/2 cup of grass-fed butter/ghee
sea salt

Steam cauliflower until tender (35-40 minutes). Place cauliflower, butter and salt to taste into a vita mix or powerful blender and blend well!

Enjoy! :)

The Most Yummy Guacamole

I made up this guacamole recipe as well! And it is VERY yummy! :)

Homemade Flu Fighting Guacamole

2 ripe avocados
2 cloves of garlic
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

Place all ingredients in vita mix or blender and blend until smooth!

This recipe is packed with nutrients as well as all my other recipes, but this one is fantastic if you are fighting a cold or a sickness because of garlic being a natural antibiotic and cayenne being REALLY high in vitamin C this is a great recipes for if you are sick!

This also makes a great baby food! And everything in here is safe for little ones that are able to eat baby or solid food! The cayenne may be a little to strong for them but it shouldn't hurt them! This recipe will work just as well with the garlic and no cayenne for them though!

The most amazing chocolate sauce EVER!

I made up this recipe the other day! It turned out beautifully! :)

Homemade Best Ever Chocolate Dipping Sauce


1/3 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup raw cacao powder
1 tsp. liquid stevia (sweet leaf brand is the best, and if you don't have sweet leaf just use 1/4 cup raw agave)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Place coconut oil in a small sauce pan at a low heat and let it melt completely. Add the coconut milk and stir those two together until creamy and smooth. Whisk in the cacao powder until smooth. Add the stevia/agave and vanilla. Whisk all ingredients together. Turn off stove and let that cool for 30 minutes. Scoop out and it should look like the picture, think and creamy!

Beyond Organic

Sometimes it's hard to find good reliable resources that you can trust when it comes to buying good whole healthy food! Well I encourage you to check out Beyond Organic!

Beyond Organic is a Christian run company that is committed to eating food God's way! The Founder and CEO Jordan Rubin has an amazing story! I encourage you to check it out!

He was suffering from 18 different illnesses at once. He went to every single experienced doctor, including going all the way to Germany to seek medical help! Every time he went, he just got worse. The treatments and medicines were not helping him at all, in fact they were killing him! He went from 185 lb and healthy, to 104 lb and in a wheel chair. 


He met a man over the phone that said, "You can be well again, if you follow a health plan based on the Bible!" Well Jordan looked at his mom and for the first time in two years he smiled and told her, "I'm going to be well." They flew done to California and he began to eat food God's way! And as a result he started healing! 

He has now written 21 books, one being the Marker Diet. The same diet he followed that made him well!
