Ingredients

  • 7oz pork sausage (200 gram ground meat of choice)
  • 1oz chopped onion (28 gram)
  • 8oz raw cauliflower leaves and core (230 gram)
  • 6oz raw cabbage (190 gram or about 1/4 of medium cabbage head)
  • 2oz raw dark kale (70 gram)
  • 1 Medium egg
  • 1/4 cup almond flour (24 gram)

Directions

Step 1
Chop all the veggies and onion into bite size. Make sure they are in similar size so they will cook evenly
Step 2
If you are using pork sausage, cut them into small chunk and try to break it apart.

If you are using regular ground meat of choice see notes below.
Step 3
Heat the skillet in medium high heat. Saute the meat until it's no longer pink but don't burn it. Depending on how much fat the meat that you use, you should have some fat rendered.
Step 4
Remove the cooked meat from the pan. Then saute the chopped onions until translucent.
Step 5
Turn the heat to high, sautee the chopped veggies until they are half cooked.
Step 6
Lastly, mix in the cooked ground meat. Turn off the heat and let it cool for a bit.
Step 7
In a small bowl, crack 1 egg and mix in with the almond flour. Whisk until they are incorporated.
Step 8
Pour the almond flour egg mixture to the cooled veggie/meat mixture. Stir until everything incorporated
Step 9
Pre heat oven to 350-400F in broil setting. Transfer the meat/veggies mixture to a baking dish. Broil for about 20-30 minutes (depending on how hot your oven) until the veggie mixture looks dry up a bit.

Note

*In this recipe I used Pastured Pork Grass Fed Franks that I purchased from Tendergrass Farms.

You can totally use any ground meat of your choice.

This is what I'd do if I am using regular ground meat
7 oz raw ground meat (pork or beef)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fish sauce
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 garlic cloves - mashed
1/2 tsp red pepper

Mix the ground meat with the seasonings prior cooking.
