Foamy mashed potatoes, sauce with beef mince, shredded carrots & lingonberry jam.
This and some game meats are the only red meat we eat and we eat it rarely. I buy it from a close by farm where they are doing pasture farming and are involved in carbon sequestration
We often make one big food once a week, this time these mashed potatoes in a big pot. Today and tomorrow we eat it with this sauce, then some other protein. This way we only have to cook a bit daily.
This food takes me straight back to my grandparents house. They were proles who taught me all I know about making food last/cooking for days/cooking for a big family. My grandma was an epic cook, made the most wholesome tasty food from fairly cheap ingredients. It’s how they raised four kids with just one adult working a government job.
Their ‘never throw anything away & always strech out ingredients’-skills helped me a lot when raising my own kid mostly poor or unemployed. I often miss them and wish I had the understanding to listen better when my grandpa talked about Lenin and the Soviet Union.

I feel compelled (regretfully) to inform you that unless the farm you buy your beef from is taking a loss on the sale of the beef to compensate for the methane emissions, their operation is still carbon positive and likely requires even more land than conventional techniques, which could otherwise be used for more carbon sequestration via cover-cropping without grazing those cover crops.
Unfortunately, unless you’re grazing especially fertile patches of north american praries, holistic management/regenerative farming is typically greenwashing
I’m aware. I still prefer to choose this over the mass produced stuff.
