Wild Game Recipes for the Adventurous Home Cook Hi, I'm Annie! I hope to inspire you to take your cooking skills to new creative heights.

I'm a wife, mom of 2 boys, Registered Dietitian, Wyoming native, lover of all things food, and the creator of Peak to Plate. I believe that preparing delicious meals and enjoying them mindfully is the best way to pay respect to animals harvested for our consumption.

With the garden winding down, I'm finding ways to use up those last bits of fresh herbs before the cold really sets in!

This garlic and herb sourdough is the perfect excuse to snip a little rosemary and thyme and put them to good use. Fresh garlic and parmesan make it extra savory, and it's delicious alongside soups, stews, or simply toasted with a generous slathering of butter.

You know what sounds good this weekend? A big, juicy patty melt. 🤤

Savory elk patties, loads of sweet caramelized onions, melty gouda cheese, and buttery, toasted bread. Basically, everything you love about a burger and a grilled cheese, all in one sandwich.

I'll be clearing out a few things in the garden before our (maybe!) first frost, and these will be just the thing to look forward to after a hard day's work!

When it's too hot to cook, these Venison Poke Bowls are the answer.

They're fresh, colorful, and packed with flavor. Tender raw venison, fluffy rice, fresh veggies, sweet mango, and a savory sauce that ties it all together.

If you're making this recipe, be sure to read the food safety notes in the blog post first. And if you're not comfortable eating raw venison, this recipe works great with cooked steak as well!
