T-Rex Take Out, A Thanksgiving Appetizer

  • by
Paleo-Scotch-Eggs

Hey YOU over there…

Yep, I am talking to you…

With that frozen 20 pounds turkey carcass wedged under your arm…

That five-pound bag of yams slung over your shoulder…

Potassi-yam

And those stalks of Brussels sprouts sticking out of your grocery bag like samurai swords…

I just wanted to let you know that it looks like you may have sat on one of your bags filled with cranberries because your butt is a slightly purplish red hue.

Well now that you have to go back to the grocery store to pick up some powerful detergentCan I tell you some other items you need to pick up?

Punch people out of the way to quickly get to the meat department so you can scoop up some ground grass-fed/finished beef… Then weasel your way between the people contemplating if they should get cage-free eggs, omega-3 enriched eggs, or brown eggs… And grab yourself some more omega-3 enriched eggs, because I am pretty sure you already picked some up so you could attempt to make a picture-perfect pumpkin pie.

Teach me your perfectionist ways Britt!

Ugh. I know. I know. The last thing you THINK you need is more food…

You’re actually probably thinking you might need to get yourself a new pair of bloat-friendly elastic waist band pants

But let me assure you, you will THANK ME (and my friend Kiyra, who decided to join me in the kitchen this week) after you create the recipe I am about to reveal to you!

Before I do that though… I have to virtually HIGH-FIVE Disney/Pixar for helping excavate this recipe from the depths of my inner workings…

Now… Go throw your pants in the washing machine…

Put that turkey in the fridge to thaw (don’t leave it on the counter… Apparently that’s not good practice… And you wouldn’t want to poison Aunt Lisa… Or would you?)…

And leave the yams and Brussels sprouts on the kitchen counter (maybe they’ll make themselves?)…

So you can check out the recipe my brain “fossilized”… After Disney/Pixar allowed me to see a pre-screening and attend the press junket for The Good Dinosaur.

DIG IN… I promise you’ll be ROARING OVER IT when you take a bite (well, unless your a vegan or vegetarian). 

T-Rex Take Out… APATOSAURUS EGGSPaleo-Scotch-EggsNow you’re expecting to find the recipe details… Well, don’t worry, T-Rex didn’t eat this recipe… It can just be found over on KELAPO COCONUT OIL’S BLOG! **

Before you head over there though, let me answer the question that you’re now waiting for me to answer…

Was The Good Dinosaur a movie worth seeing?

Good-Dinosaur-Disney-Pixar

Welp, I have to say, that the latest Pixar movie… Where the geniuses at Disney (specifically Peter Sohn, Denise Ream, etc) took the “what if an asteroid NEVER hit Earth” idea to the big screen… Is a rather heart-warming movie, you’ll want to take your family to go see!

This animated “documentary” introduces us to Arlo, a young and terrified of everything, Apatosaurus, who winds up getting lost after a tragic accident… He then must face his fears and navigate his way home…

Without GPS! GASP

This movie will certainly make everyone who sees it EXTRA thankful and appreciative of everything they have, including Google Maps!

So do yourself (and the rest of your family… No one likes a bi**y relative) a favor; push your stress and anxiety about the holidays aside, nosh on some Apatosaurus Eggs and check out he movie The Good Dinosaur

SO TELL ME… 

  • Check your pants… Do they have any stains on them?
  • How to you calm yourself down during the holiday madness?
  • What is your holiday feast uniform?
  • What is your least favorite thing to cook… But your favorite thing to eat, during the holidays?
  • What is your favorite Pixar movie?
  • Have you ever heard of the Butcher Box? That’s where I got my ground grass-fed meat from… SO GOOD!
  • Are you planning to see a movie this holiday weekend? If so… Which one? I hear THE GOOD DINOSAUR is a cute one!
