So as is typical for a Wednesday night, I had little to no time to get dinner together. My plan was for a Fritatta, but once Kourt saw the New York Strips I has pulled out of the freezer a few days ago, grilling commenced. Added a side of green beans. I use like two strips of bacon and render the fat. I microwave the green beans inside a plastic bag for 2-3 minutes, then add them to the hot grease. The key is to cook the beans aggressively at high heat and move them around a lot. I almost burn some it’s so hot. But they turn out dark and crusty and yummy.

So tonight’s dinner was Chili with Cauliflower “Rice”. The chili was pretty darn good as it used stew meat as a base so the chunks of meat were big and tasty. It used chipotle chile powder and plenty of cumin, so it was really smokey. Topped it off with cubed avocado and it was a hit. I think the recipe is from Make it Paleo. It has to stew for 4-5 hours, so it’s not a quick meal by any means, but worth the time if you have it. Truthfully, I’m of the school that chili doesn’t have beans anyway, so making this paleo version of chili was easy for me. The beans just take away from the flavor of the beef and chile peppers if you ask me!

I got this recipe for Crabcakes from the book Make It Paleo. The sauce I made using whole grain mustard, sherry vinegar, and olive oil.
