I'm a deer hunter and the last few years I have been grinding much of my trimmings to put in the freezer as ground venison. I use a lot for meatza pizzas, but here's a new favorite recipe for using ground venison!
Ground Venison & Vegetable Soup
Wild Game Cook Book II
1 lb. ground venison
1 onion, chopped
4 carrots, chopped
4 stalks celery, sliced
28 oz. can petite diced tomatoes
28 oz. can water
Vegetarian bouillon
1-1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
Dried or fresh parsley to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Sauté ground venison and onions. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, 45 minutes - one hour.
Could leave out the meat and instead add 1/2 cup barley for a Food Combining lunch.
