Luckily, we had a successful hunting trip last year and have had plenty of elk meat in the freezer to pull out when we get the craving for a flavorful steak. In addition to some amazing steaks, we also have some ground elk that we have used mostly as a ground beef substitute, either for taco meat or burgers. To try something different, we decided to use some of our ground elk in this recipe to make elk meatballs with a side of sweet and spicy sauce for dipping....
The Mayo-Free Dressing Traditionally, coleslaw is made with mayo and while that’s real good sometimes, other times Justin and I like a lighter version. It just feels like the mayo can drown out the other flavors, and we really love it when all the flavors and textures come through. This healthy coleslaw dressing is made with olive oil, lemon juice and some simple seasonings. It’s pretty basic, but super tasty and goes well with just about anything....

Easy-to-make chipotle aioli I’ll admit, until I tested this recipe, I was a little intimidated by making a homemade aioli or homemade mayonnaise.

I’m happy to say that all of my worries were for nothing. Using an immersion blender, creating this creamy sauce takes pretty much zero effort....

Grilled plantains are actually a super easy way to enjoy plantains and less messy than pan-frying them too. And let’s be real…less messy is always a win!

this recipe Sauté In The Instant Pot Have you used your instant pot to sauté anything yet?

The sauté function on the instant pot is easy, and it’s basically like cooking something in a skillet over medium heat....
Marinate Your Fish You’ll want to start by marinating your fish for at least 15 minutes and up to 24 hours. We use cod for this recipe, which is great because it really takes on whatever flavors you cook it with. Place your fish in a glass dish and sprinkle the seasoning mixture all over. Use your hands to work the seasoning into the fish, and then wash your hands, cover the dish and refrigerate until you are ready to cook the fish....
Classic Combo I mean does it get any more classic than PB and Jelly? I think not. However, most store-bought jelly is loaded with sugar and preservatives and really just not super healthy. So, we opted for using real fruit and calling it good! You get the fruity combo mixed with the overnight oat/chia pudding and then we top it with a clean nut butter. Look for something with no refined sugar (or even no added sugar at all) and minimal ingredients....
