Day 21!

So, by now you've picked up on my sleeping in/watching TV in bed for a while weekend routine and that I typically have 2 actual meals most weekends... Today was no different :)

Hubby's been wanting sausage and I have yet to find a Whole 30 friendly breakfast sausage, so I picked him up some ground pork and he made sausage patties this morning, we each had one and we froze the rest.
It was pretty tasty :)



I scrambled us up some eggs - hubby likes his scrambled eggs plain, nothing mixed in, so I just topped mine with avocado, Muir Glen Organic Salsa and a few dashes Tabasco sauce. I also grilled some tomato sliced on the griddle with some sausage and added a few of the castelvetrano olives :) 

He used this recipe for the sausage - As always, I thought it needed a bit more salt, but otherwise, pretty darn good:

Be sure to check out the blog - looks pretty useful!


Ingredients

Process


  1. Combine pork, garlic, and all spices in a mixing bowl, mixing until it reaches an even consistency.
  2. Form pork mixture into 2-ounce patties (approximately 8 patties).
  3. Heat a skillet to medium heat with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil per 4 patties.
  4. Cook the patties for approximately 3–4 minutes per side.
  5. Each side should be golden, and the center of the patties should no longer be pink.

Hubby also made beef jerky today - It isn't grass fed, beef, but at least it's a snack for him that is better than other choices :)


He used coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and only a couple dashes of the bitters since it does have sugar. We also didn't have onion powder, so he put some onion slices in the marinade instead -Next time I say more salt (coconut aminos are not as salty tasting as soy sauce) and maybe a bit more hot sauce -- based on this recipe:


I didn't take a picture of dinner as it was basically the same as last night, only my steak was done much better and not overcooked and was DELICIOUS :)  

I think we'll be trying out some Scotch Eggs with homemade sausage very soon - we are big fans of the Scotch Egg  :)
Now, if only we could figure a way to Paleo-fy Haggis ;P  haha  :)

Day 21 Success! :)
