Jerk Pork Burgers

I'm loving the ground pork lately! I still had a package leftover from last weeks sale at Safeway. This time I decided to add some jerk type seasoning for a little different flavor. It was a good low maintenance family pleaser!

I used about 1 lb. ground pork

1 tsp fax seed oil

spices:

1 tsp each:

ginger

chili pepper

garlic powder

onion powder

paprika

allspice

thyme

black pepper

cumin

nutmeg

and 1/8 tsp cayenne

It was just enough for 4 patties. I grilled them and put them on a bed of lettuce with a side of avocado and tomato (a salad of sorts).

I sliced one small sweet potato (like fries) and baked it at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. I sprayed the pan with some olive oil spray and seasoned the sweet potatoes with a little garlic powder and pepper. I then sprinkled a few crushed pecans over the top!

The other side dish for this meal was steamed yellow zucchini! I sauteed some onion, garlic, and orange bell pepper in about a tsp olive oil, added the yellow squash. Cover with lid, and steam until squash is tender.

This is only about a 3 block paleo-zone dinner! ... Enjoy!
