Roasted Bison with Cassava

Roasted Bison with Cassava

Here's a wonderful dish I've been making lately that feels restaurant quality but comes together faster than you'd expect. Bison is such a lean, flavorful meat that deserves something equally special, and roasted cassava root is the perfect complement. What I love about cassava is that it's naturally gluten free and packed with vitamin C, making this meal as nourishing as it is delicious. The whole thing takes under an hour from start to finish, which means you can have an impressive dinner on the table on a weeknight without stress. The pan sauce brings everything together beautifully, creating something that tastes like you spent all day cooking.
