Moroccan Beef with Apricots & Dates + Simple Cauliflower Mash (Whole30 Day 22)

January 22, 2014 By Becky 9 Comments

It’s Day 22 of my Whole30!  I can’t believe it’s been over three weeks.  This month really is flying by.  I have more energy, more even moods, and while I still get hungry, I no longer want to kill all the things when my stomach starts rumbling.  Also, my pants are looser and I’m recovering more quickly from my workouts, with much less soreness.
Yesterday, a big snowstorm came to town.  After traipsing home from the train station in the snow, I made this Moroccan beef.  It’s almost a stew, but I wanted the sauce to be nice and thick so that the beef wasn’t swimming in liquid.  The meat is perfectly spiced, and the sweet fruit provides a wonderful counterpoint.  The garnishes–toasted almonds and fresh cilantro–are highly recommended.  I served this beef over a simple cauliflower mash, but it would also be great with spaghetti squash, cauliflower rice, or even real rice–anything that will soak up the delicious sauce.  No matter how you serve it, this dish will comfort and warm you on a cold winter’s night.
