Massive Pot Roast

Here we go.  This is another in the pot roast series.  While the slow cooker is very handy, pot roast takes half the time and is just as tasty.

This week started with 2 strips of bacon and 1/2 of a red onion in the bottom of the pot.  Additional ingredients:

Golden Beet
Japanese Sweet potato
Cauliflower
Broccoli
Kale
Coconut milk
Tomato sauce
1 3/4 lb grass feed beef shoulder roast
black pepper
turmeric (do you say tuR mer ic   or Tu mer ic ???  I prefer the former, but maybe I'm wrong)
cayenne

Moroccan Lamb Sausage & Carbs

Here's some Moroccan Lamb sausage from the DeKalb Farmer's Market.  Quite good, although the Greek version I had last week might be a little better.

Since I'm officially adding back the carbs, here's today's recipe:

3 links lamb sausage
Cauliflower
Red Kale
Red potato (one, medium)
1 cup Koku rice
~2 tbsp ghee (to fry the veggies)
~1 tbsp butter - on the rice
