Homemade Healthy Gluten Free Lunch

This was lunch for me and Bubba on Wednesday (and probably today too): Homemade liver pate and homemade rosemary almond flour crackers. Both are super easy and good for you. (Ignore the chip in the plate and the crumbs on the counter). :)




Liver Pate
1 lb bacon cooked
1 lb beef liver (lightly sauteed in the bacon grease)
herbs of choice (I used garlic and rosemary this time, but used herbs de province that last couple of times)
salt (to taste)
cream (enough to make it creamy)

I put it all in the vitamix and processed it for about a minute. Actually I did half first, then the second half and I put the first half back in to mix it with the second half (because I put too much cream in the second half). The consistency turned about perfect. It could have used more garlic, but everything could always use more garlic.

Rosemary crackers
1 3/4 cup blanched almond flour (I buy it in bulk at the co-op)
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp chopped rosemary
1 egg
1 Tbsp olive oil

mix it all together and roll it out really thin between two pieces of parchment. Remove the top piece of parchment, score the crackers with a knife and bake at 350 for 12 -15 minutes.

Many people are turned off by the idea of eating liver, but when it is from organic, grass fed beef (or chicken) it is so good for you. This is an easy and yummy way to get it down... actually enjoy it. And with a little cold pack it travels easy too.

Enjoy!!
