Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground elk (defrost if frozen)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 stick celery
  • 1/2 large onion (or a whole small one)
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup ketchup (the paleo version is sweetened only with fruit, and unsalted)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method

  • Crack the egg, mix it up a bit, and add the elk. Stir together.
  • Cut the carrot, celery, onion, and garlic into large chunks. Put them all together in a food processor, and pulse until they are in small, even pieces. (Don't let them turn into mush!).
  • Add the cut vegetables to the meat, and the rosemary, pepper, oil, and ketchup. Mix it all up, using your hands is the best way to ensure an even mix.
  • Form into a loaf and put into a loaf pan.
  • Bake at 350 for approximately an hour.
