Steak and Mashed Potatoes

I thought I could use some practice cooking steaks, and my husband didn’t argue with me wanting to practice. I bought several steaks and fell in love with this simple method of cooking this delicious red meat and potatoes.

My husband and I both loved this simple dish, and I’m sure you will too!

Steak Ingredients: 

2 Steaks

2 tablespoons Coconut Oil

1/4 Onion, separated into rings

Instructions: 

Step 1) Heat pan on medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and cook steaks.

Step 2) When the steaks are almost done cooking, add onions into coconut oil and sauteé until finished.

Mashed Potatoes Ingredients: 

4 Potatoes

1/4 cup Coconut Oil

1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt 

Chives, as garnish

Instructions: 

Step 1) Cut up potatoes into 1/4 inch pieces. The smaller the pieces, the faster the potatoes will cook.

Step 2) Put cut potatoes into large pan, and fill with enough water to cover the top of the potatoes. Boil for about 30 minutes, or until potatoes are fully cooked and soft.

Step 3) Drain Potatoes and beat until smooth.

Step 4) Add Coconut Oil and Sea Salt. Add to taste.

Step 5) Add freshly chopped chives on top as garnish.

Notes: 

Red meat, like anything else, should be eaten in moderation and cooked with healthy ingredients. The steaks I bought were really thick, so I cut them in half so they weren’t so thick, and then I cooked them in healthy ingredients like coconut oil.

When making the mashed potatoes, be sure to keep the skins on! The skin provides a lot of the nutrients, so peeling the skin off of the potatoes isn’t ideal.

Recipes don’t need to be complicated or have a million different ingredients to taste wonderful.

Bon Appétit!
