@SaturFarms began 20 years ago by Paulette Satur, a farmer's daughter living and working in New York City, determined to bring the fresh ingredients that her husband and chef worked with in illustrious European kitchens. Armed with Paulette Satur's plant science degree and Chef Eberhard Müller's passion for culinary perfection, they set about growing their farming business together. Today, Satur Farms produces specialty salads, leafy veggies, root veggies, and herbs on 250 acres on Lond Island and 500 acres in the winter in Flordia to deliver the freshest produce year-round. Plus, as a sustainable farming operation following European farming techniques, they're socially responsible and pay employees living wages - win-win.

What you'll need::
• 3 tbsp olive or avocado oil
• 1 tsp pink salt
• 1 container of mirepoix (chopped onion, carrot and celery)
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped (optional)
• 2 red bell peppers, chopped

What you'll do::
In a large pot, add in the first six ingredients and sauté over medium heat until the onions and peppers have a chance to sweat and soften, about 5-7 minutes.

Add in meat of choice or tofu. Stir around and crumble using a wooden spoon until all the meat is mostly cooked.

Add in chili powder, cayenne (if using) and cumin. Stir ingredients around in the pot to prevent burning.
