Tuesday Tip on Thursday

So my new favorite dish is anything with Bison.  (That is right...I love buffalo meat.)  I have never been adventurous with meat, but I have struck up a friendship with our butcher at our grocery store- and he swears by it.  I had been toying with the idea of trying it because it is actually leaner than chicken breast, and my husband actually has a mild allergy to red meat-so I am always looking for a meat he can eat that has plenty of iron for me.  (By the way, I don't eat other gamey meats.  I can't touch venison, elk, etc.)

The first time I prepared it, I made it in our crock pot with celery/carrots/onions and one of those lipton onion packs-cooked it on high for 6 hours, and it was amazing.  I am not great in the kitchen, so for me to produce something that is fantastic is amazing in itself.  I am making another dish with it as we speak in the crock pot.  Since work has picked up again, I don't have the time to cook these days....so the crock pot does all the cooking these days.

So next time you are in the grocery store and are feeling adventurous-try bison.  It really tastes just like beef, but is healthier than chicken!
