Ingredients 

Mashed potatoes:

  • 1.5 lb. potatoes, about 5 or 6 medium, Russet or Yukon Gold
  • 2 Tbsps clarified butter or ghee
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice, I used cashew milk
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steak bites:

  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil, or olive oil
  • 6 cloves fresh garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 1 lb. sirloin steak cut into bite size pieces
  • sea salt, to taste
  • 2 Tbsps clarified butter or ghee
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 Tbsp chopped chives

Instructions 

  • To make the mashed potatoes:
  • Peel your potatoes, then thoroughly rinse.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the potatoes to the hot boiling water and boil until potatoes break apart easily when pierced with fork, about 20 minutes.
  • Once done, drain really well and mash with a potato masher until you achieve your desired consistency.
  • In a small saucepan bring milk and butter to low simmer and whisk together.
  • Add in yogurt to the mashed potatoes, stir well. Slowly pour in the warm butter-milk mixture while using the potato masher to reach the desired consistency and smoothness. Season with sea salt and pepper, to your taste.
  • To make the steak bites:
  • Heat your oil in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add in crushed garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • Add in steak bites and sear each side until slightly brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  • Once steak bites are done to your liking, reduce the heat and add in the butter/ghee. Stir to combine until butter is melted and nicely coats the steak. Season with sea salt and pepper to your taste if desired.
  • Garnish with chopped parsley and chives.
  • To assemble your meal prep bowls:
  • Divide the mashed potatoes and steak bites evenly into 4 meal prep containers. They will keep well in the fridge for 5 days or can be frozen for 2-3 months.
  • Prior to eating just reheat and enjoy!
