Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Cut semi-frozen beef into 1/4" thick slices. Dehydrate at 155 for 6 hours. Add sliced apples at same time. Flip both apples and beef halfway through dehydration time.
When there 2 hours left in dehydration time for beef and apples, and spinach. Use two trays, so that spinach dried evenly.
Add dried spinach, apple, and spices to food processor or high speed blender. Blend until spinach is finely ground, and apples are in very small pieces. Put the apple and spinach mixture into a large mixing bowl.
Add meat to food processor or blender. Process until it is finely ground. Add the ground meat to your mixing bowl with apple and spinach mixture. Combine well.
Add your softened fat of choice. Mix well. You\'re aiming for a wet, cohesive dough- but not too wet. If your mixture is too dry, add more fat in tbs. increments until it reaches the desired consistency.
Press mixture into a parchment paper lined 9 by 9 square pan- or similar. Refrigerate until mixture is firm and set. Cut into bars, and store in the refrigerator in a sealed container.
