This recipe is 100% raw and loaded with nutritional animal fats and proteins. I usually eat this muscle meal at the end of a rigorous day of exercise, and it always makes me feel great. I learned most of it from Emril’s beef tartare recipe, but with limited ingredients I made up my own version, and it’s delicious.

• Garlic (2 cloves, chopped)
• Onion (1/4 of one, chopped)
• Basil (handful of leaves, chopped)
• Mustard (2 tablespoons, stone ground style)
• Salt (3/4 teaspoon, natural sea salt)
• Pepper (1/2 teaspoon, freshly ground)
• Egg (1 raw, sometimes 2 to make it more moist)
• Olive Oil (between none and 1/4 cup, your preference)
• Beef (1 pound, grass-fed-organic ground round)

Mix everything together adding the beef in last. Then mix till all the beef is moist. I’ll often eat this by itself or layered on top of mana bread (sprouted bread cooked at low temperatures with no yeast) and raw butter. Enjoy.
