Ostrich steak??
A chunk from their massive thighs.

Mrs. Scrub can't do beef or pork. We eat a lot of chicken. Probably over half our animal protein. Lamb, duck, bunny, seafood is the rest. Lotsa eggs.

Ostrich cooks like, looks like, and tastes like *super* lean beef. I get s bunch of steaks and ground in a bulk package a couple times a year.

Wilted down spinach and radish greens with S&P, garlic, red pepper flakes. Raw French Breakfast radishes up top.

We got a couple early hot days recently and that started my radishes on the way to bolting. So pick and eat them early!

2nd round will get sown for cooler fall weather

Half turkey, half ostrich. Single layer vs. double. Yea, the American cheese is key.

The marinade is a great base with which to do all manner of delicious things.

Delicious.
