Venison Chorizo

I’ve always loved the flavor of chorizo sausage but since Connor & I don’t buy meat from the grocery store anymore, I’ve definitely been missing it. I had a few extra packages of ground venison in the freezer, so I thought I’d try my hand at making venison chorizo. This recipe is full of flavorContinue reading “Venison Chorizo”

Bear Chili

I was FINALLY able to get my hands on some bear meat so naturally the first thing I cooked was bear chili. Due to the possibility of trichinosis (a food-bourne disease caused by the parasite called Trichinella), in the meat, bear must be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Therefore, I try to incorporateContinue reading “Bear Chili”

Hearty Gnocci & Lengua Soup

Yes, lengua is another name for tongue and yes I know a lot of people are disgusted with the idea of eating tongue. I can understand this view on eating a muscle like the tongue, however, Connor and I really try to eat as much of an animal as possible. Tongue is no exception! TheContinue reading “Hearty Gnocci & Lengua Soup”

Wild Turkey & Bean Enchiladas

Growing up, my mom used to make enchiladas with beef, but now that Connor & I don’t buy beef from the grocery store, I figured I would substitute out the beef with shredded wild turkey legs. I was so pleased! The great thing about this recipe is you could swap out the turkey for whateverContinue reading “Wild Turkey & Bean Enchiladas”

How to Cook: Snowshoe Hare

I think there’s often a bad connotation with eating rabbit because they’re considered cute & fluffy. Connor has been hunting rabbits with dogs and recently he brought rabbit legs home for me to try some new recipes with. Rabbit legs reminded me of a smaller turkey leg so I figured I’d throw it in theContinue reading “How to Cook: Snowshoe Hare”

Creamy Italian Rabbit Soup

Recently, Connor has been out hunting snowshoe hares with beagles and on Friday, he brought home rabbit meat for me to try. I threw the legs into the crock pot and slow cooked for about 6 hours. The meat on the rabbit legs falls right off the bone and is the perfect addition to aContinue reading “Creamy Italian Rabbit Soup”

Garlic Green Beans

In addition to the Shrimp & Broad Noodles recipe I’ve posted, this is another inspiration dish from Empire Chinese Kitchen. Their garlic green bean appetizer is to die for and since the restaurant is over an hour away from my house, it was time to try to replicate it. After a couple tries, I thinkContinue reading “Garlic Green Beans”

Creamy Mac N’ Cheese

I’ve grown up eating this version of mac n’ cheese and so much nostalgia hits me whenever I take a bite of this dish. A staple in my house growing up, I wouldn’t dare try another recipe. I know many versions of mac n’ cheese with breadcrumbs on top, but mum never added them, andContinue reading “Creamy Mac N’ Cheese”

Brown Butter Seared Scallops

I always used to prefer fried seafood until I tried brown butter seared scallops at a Lobster & Ale restaurant I used to waitress at. I’ve been obsessed with them ever since, so much so that I knew I had to recreate them at home, and for half the price! Here’s my take on theseContinue reading “Brown Butter Seared Scallops”
