I recently improvised this one and enjoyed it so much that I made it twice in a row and had it for lunch and dinner every day. This is extremely high in anti-cancer compounds in leeks, garlic, kale and maitake mushrooms, CLA from pastured lamb, and cinnamon and turmeric. This is an excellent holiday meal on a cold night, or to enjoy anytime of the year.

- Olive oil
- 3 Tbsp. Coconut oil
