My Favorite Paleo Recipes:
Paleo Chili with 4 Meats

evolution rI often make this dish on the weekend and freeze portions to use during the week. I created this, and I must confess that it is delicious. It combines some of the best tastes of several meats with healthy ground beef heart – this is a great way to include organ meats for those who are not used to them. The black garlic is fermented garlic that adds a unique sweet taste. I purchase this from my local Trader Joes. The beef and heart are from grass-fed and grass-finished cattle, and the pork and bacon are from pastured pigs.
