Steaks and sweet potatoes

Tonight we grilled grass fed ribeyes for dinner. I also tried a little something new with sweet potatoes, and we made our usual oven roasted broccoli. I simply marinate the steaks in coconut aminos, a little bit of balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and Tony's seasoning. For the broccoli I preheat the oven to 375, toss in olive oil, salt and pepper and cook for 30 minutes. For the sweet potatoes You will need: 3 sweet potatoes Coconut oil 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp salt Start by cutting the potatoes into discs. Next, put the potatoes in boiling water for 12 minutes. Now make your rub to put on the potatoes. Combine cumin, garlic powder, and salt in a small bowl. When they are finished boiling, remove them from the water and let cool for about 5 minutes. Now place them on a greased cooking sheet. Spread each one individually with coconut oil, and then spread each one with the spice mixture. Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes on each side, depending on how crispy you want them to be. Remember when you flip the potatoes over to put the coconut oil and spice mixture on the new side facing up.

  I also wanted to tell you that http://www.thomsongrazers.com is a local place that sells grass fed beef. They can provide you with all different cuts of meat and it is supporting locally. Thus where we usually get our meat. They are usually at the market that’s downtown on Saturday mornings.

  Thanks! I get my coconut aminos at whole foods. They really just replace soy sauce for me since you cant have soy on paleo. It basically tastes just like it. It is just flavoring. The tony’s that I use is the origianl creole seasoning.

I am loving your blog. May try to gradually go to Paleo. Is there one single book you would recommend for tips? What are your thoughts on Quinoa? Is it strictly forbidden?
