I love to cook and my family loves to eat! I love taking recipes my family and my husband's family have loved over the years and making it fit at our table!
Until we felt the pain of being short enough for a full shopping cart at the grocery store I had never given wild game a second thought. My husband would bring venison home and I would put it in the back of the freezer until it was covered in freezer burn and then would toss it out. After we started actually having to sit down and eat meals when our daughter was one I started realizing just how little healthy food I could put in the cart. So began my mission to tolerate the taste of wild game. It was a slow road.... I would take the meat from my husband's recent hunting trip and cut it with 70%/30% ground beef from my grocery store..... 25% venison, 75% beef..... over several months I got was able to eat 100% venison..... my husband's hunting trips have made me so spoiled, I have found myself struggling to cook with ground beef and ruining my favorite recipes when the freezer runs out before the next hunting season has begun! Wild game isn't for everyone, but I must say, everyone who has eaten at my house hasfinished with a full belly and I rarely buy red meat at the grocery store anymore!
