I was absolutely blown away when I saw the final draft of the book. The recipes are incredibly creative and the photos are gorgeous. It’s one of those e-books that you will definitely want to have printed – it’s that good! I flipped through and started making a list of all the recipes I wanted to try – before I knew it I had half the book jotted down. I could only pick one to share with you, so today I’m bringing you a sneak peak from Andrea Wycoff of Forest and Fauna – Swedish Meatballs & Mushroom Gravy. You can find the recipe below!
I’m super excited to have contributed 5 recipes to the book, including a brand new book exclusive – Pineapple & Mango Chicken Thighs! They are a tropical delight and perfect over cauliflower rice.

Sneak Peak Recipe: Swedish Meatballs & Mushroom Gravy
prep 15 mins
cook 20 mins
total 35 mins
yield 6-8 servings
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley (divided)
2 TBS dried minced onion
1 tsp dried sage
1/2 tsp ground mace
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 cups of sliced mushrooms (button or crimini)
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup bone broth (or coconut milk, or water)
3 TBS coconut aminos
Instructions
In a bowl mix together ground beef, pork, 3 tablespoons minced parsley, dried onion, sage, mace, and salt. Once thoroughly mixed, form into meatballs about 1-inch in diameter.
Place mushrooms, onion, broth/coconut milk/water, and coconut aminos into the Instant Pot. Add the meatballs.
Close and lock the lid. Press the MEAT/STEW button and set cooking time to 35 minutes. Once the time is up, quick release the pressure.
Using a slotted spoon gently remove the meatballs and transfer to a serving platter.
Using an immersion blender or a high speed blender, puree the cooked mushrooms, onions, and broth into a nice creamy gravy. If the gravy is too thick, add a little more bone broth/coconut milk/water until the right consistency is reached.
Pour gravy over meatballs and garnish with remaining tablespoon of minced parsley. This dish makes a wonderful appetizer as is, or main course when served over spaghetti squash, cauliflower rice, sautéed veggies, or warm zucchini noodles.
Notes
Substitute: 1/4 cup red wine or 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar/balsamic vinegar for the coconut aminos, if needed
