Paleo picadillo- cuban style

Thanks to Dave K. for introducing us to picadillo- yum!

olive oil
1 white onion chopped
8 garlic cloves, minced
3 bay leaves
2 pounds ground beef- grass fed if possible
1 15 ounce can diced tomatoes - sugar free, undrained, or 3 home grown tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup green olives, whole or sliced
dash of red wine vinegar, chili powder, and cayenne pepper

saute onion, garlic and beef in olive oil until beef is browned. Add bay leaves, tomatoes, raisins, and green olives. Simmer about 8 minutes. Discard bay leaves. If you want a thicker picadillo, add 1 can (6oz) tomato paste - sugar free.

Serve with cauliflower rice, or alone with veggies.
