Paleo Pizza Roll-ups

Try my easy and delicious pizza alternative: sausage wrapped in kale leaves:

 

lacinato leaf

 

 

1. Steam lacinato (“dinosaur”) kale leaves and lay flat.

 

 

 

make sausage

 

2. Mix your favorite spices into plain ground pork and form a giant patty.  I like sea salt, oregano, basil, garlic and fennel seeds.  (Skip fennel if doing AIP.)  Or use ready-made sausage that you trust.

 

 

 

cooking sausage

 

3. Cook thoroughly, ideally in a cast iron skillet.  You probably won’t need to add fat unless your meat is extra lean.

4. When fully cooked, cut into strips about 1/2″ – 1″ wide.

5. Place a sausage strip in the center of a leaf.  Feel free to add tomato sauce, pesto, cheese, additional veggies, or whatever if you wish.

7. If they’ve cooled down, you may wish to warm in the oven for a few minutes.  Serve and enjoy!
