Snails in garlick sauce (Escargot)

For me the Paleo Diet is about variety. Our Paleolithic ancestors ate whatever the could catch or find. Insects are a staple source of protein in many cultures. I love eating different kinds of food. While at a local grocery store I noticed a can of snails. 4.4 oz dry weight made by Roland. packed in water, salt, pepper and citric acid. cost $1.85 pretty paleo and affordable. Escargot anyone????

Ingredients:
  • 1 4.4oz can of large escargot snails (12 snails)
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • Olive oil
  • 1tsp dry chives
  • 1tsp dried parsley
  • pepper to taste.

Directions:

Saute Garik in olive oil on med heat until it begins to brown. lower heat and add herbs and snails. Saute for a few minutes until the snails are heated through. Makes a great snack with a side salad!
