Molasses & Rosemary Lamb Chops

Supportive Comfort Food!

Say what… a comfort food that is supportive! YES! I always ate lamb with mint jelly growing up. It was good stuff…but as an apron wearing mom I came across a secret ingredient- Molasses. If used in the right way Molasses can be an additional source of iron. I used it in my boys smoothies when they were little for a natural iron source.

**prep with marinade night/morning before to get the most flavor. It is still tasty without the marinating time if you are in a pinch.

Ingredients:

3 Tbsps of Organic Blackstrap Molasses (iron)
1 Tbsp of Crushed Dried Oregano or Rosemary (anti-inflammatory)
1/2 Cup Tomoato Purée/Sauce
2 Tablespoons of EVOO (olive oil)
Celtic Salt & Pepper to taste
