Whenever I make Beef Jerky from an ‘eye of the round’ roast, there are invariably lots of end bits left over (OK, I always make sure there are leftover bits…). So on days that I make beef jerky, we have some kind of beefy bits meal. Yesterday it happened to be paleo sesame mango beef [...]

I made Paleosagna a few days ago and someone commented on my recipe post that a good idea for noodles was using blanched cabbage leaves. This got me thinking… Paleo Cabbage Rolls!!!
