Tomato Stuffed Portobello Mushroom
August 26, 2018

Tomatoes are in season and what a great way to celebrate them by using them as a stuffing in an earthy portobello mushroom.  This is great as a side dish if you are already grilling or if one of your guest is a vegetarian.  This is a hearty choice.  Grilling mushrooms is nothing new.  But stuffing them is something you have to try.  A flavorful filling with fresh tomatoes and fresh herbs makes this an impressive side dish or a hearty vegetarian dish.

Tomatoes Stuffed with Ground Meat and Eggs
March 20, 2018

When you are meal prepping and you are tired of scramble eggs or an omelet for breakfast, turn to this recipe to make breakfast interesting again. You can easily multiply this recipe and control portions by weighing the protein in the tomato before adding the egg. Simply determine how much protein you need for each tomato account for 15-20 percent shrinkage after cooking. This recipe calls for bison and there is minimal shrinkage because of the low fat content in bison but there is still moisture or water that also shrinks your proteins after cooking. This is especially delicious in the summertime when the tomatoes are plentiful. You want to use round tomatoes not Romas for this recipe. The nutritional contents below are for bison but any ground meat would be delicious. I have even used ground turkey omitting the oregano and then added organic gluten free taco seasoning and it was really delicious. In addition you can add vegetables to the meat mixture or even add quinoa or rice if you need more carbohydrates.
