Wow, I threw this together tonight, and it came out fantastic. Started with a super (my best yet, see below) Cauliflower mashed potatoes. Reserve 1 cup and set rest aside. 1/2 lb of extremely lean grass fed ground beef, browned. 1 medium onion lightly browned with the ground beef. 2 cloves garlic lightly browned with the ground beef. 1 heaping cup fresh local green beans, lightly steamed (about 8-10 mon) (water was already hot from steaming cauliflower) About 6 large baby carrots sliced and steamed with green beans. 3 medium radishes sliced and steamed with green beans. A large handful of Kale, massaged and squeezed by hand (like one would do for a salad to release bitterness). About 1 tsp Tumeric 1 heaping tsp Himalayan crystal salt in cauliflower mashed potatoes 1/4 level tsp ground black pepper in cauliflower mashed potatoes 1/8 tsp ground cloves in cauliflower mashed potatoes 1 Tbl unsalted grass fed butter in cauliflower mashed potatoes 1 scant 1/4 cup 2% milk in cauliflower mashed potatoes 1 Tbl virgin coconut oil in cauliflower mashed potatoes . Mix all ingredients including the 1 cup Cauliflower mashed potatoes, but leaving aside the remaining Cauliflower mashed potatoes. Pour into a casserole dish. Spread the remaining Cauliflower mashed potatoes on top. * Bake covered in a preheated 350 deg F oven for about 15 min. Remove cover and finish under broiler for about 5 min. . You can just bake for the entire 20 mins. And IF the ingredients were prepared earlier or are some cold left-overs, then bake a little longer to heat through. Vegetables will be a perfect texture. . We do not usually eat corn, but there was some left over from our daughter, when she ate out, so I added a scant 1/2 cup. . My wife and I ate half each. Wonderful. . P about 24g or 3 blocks. C about 32g minus 12g fiber = 20g or 2 blocks. F depends on your ingredients, ours was about 18g or 6 blocks each (we double our fat) We each had a nice glass of Merlot (red) wine (4oz) for 3 total blocks C. . Even though its summer, it was a rainy evening. My wife remarked that, "You could make this every day for a month!" P.S. We had our 1-1/2 yr old grandson over as we do most Friday evenings, and he really liked it too - <grin>
