What you need...
Steak
1.5 lb. thick cut ribeye
2 tablespoons coconut oil
Preheat the oven to 375F. Add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil to a large saute pan. Heat to high heat and carefully sear the meat on each side. I allow it to cook first 1 min. on each large side and then holding it with the tongs, just barely sear the sides for a few seconds, just long enough to gently brown the meat. Place to meat into an oven safe dish and put into the center of the oven. Roast until 130F internal temperature is reached for medium-rare, 135 for medium. This piece took just over 30 minutes. I use a digital meat thermometer to be sure! Remove from oven and place on a plate to rest while you prepare the rest of your meal, then slice against the grain of the meat. If your oven has a built in probe that works great too! Salt and pepper to taste.
Asaparagus
1 bunch of asparagus, washed & trimmed
salt
pepper
Toss asparagus into the hot dish that you used for the steak and return to oven. Roast for 10 minutes, Remove and salt and pepper to taste. Add a little blue cheese crumbles for an extra treat!
Mushroom Cauliflower "Risotto"
1 head of cauliflower, steamed and crushed into rice, salt & pepper added
1/4 sweet onion, diced
1 cup mushrooms, sliced (or more ;))
1/2 cup macadamia nuts
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup fresh parsley
1/2 cup coconut milk
Place macadamia nuts, garlic, parsley and 2 tablespoons of coconut milk into a blender and blend until pasty but smooth. I like to use the single serve cup from my smoothie maker. Set aside.
Add onions and mushrooms to the pan you used to sear the meat, or a saute pan with 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Turn to medium/high heat and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Add cauliflower rice and toss to combine, continue cooking for 5 minutes. Then add the macadamia nut mixture and turn to combine coating the veggies with the mixture, cooking for 3 minutes. Add coconut milk and continue stirring over medium heat until creamy and warmed thorough about 3-5 minutes.
