I'm strict paleo and i make my own liver pate. But because i cant spread it on a cracker or toast, i have been eating it on carrot slices. I'm wondering what else it can be heaped onto that is also good?

How do you get the kale chips to be strong enough? I've yet to find a place between bendy and too brittle. I ended up just getting a spoon to eat the pate with kale chip pieces sprinkled on top. – Happy Now Jan 24 2012 at 9:01

I like cucumber slices for 'chips'

I do this too. It's the only way I survive going to the Jewish Deli I love. Chopped liver on cucumber slices... Mmmmmm – Aughra Jan 24 2012 at 16:21

Now I wish I could "bookmark" my favorite answers so I'd remember this next time I eat pate! This is going to be soooo delicious! – a mesmerizing trickster Jul 8 at 23:56

Spread on celery sticks.

Smeared on nori and rolled up.

Straight off of a butter knife (my go to fave, and amazing with a little red wine as a palate cleanser).

Plantain, potato chips or Mary's Gone crackers to scoop it.

I've tried kale chips but they were too delicate and either just bent, or shattered into a million pieces.

I haven't tried it yet, but someday I'd like to try it with baked parmesan chips.

im on board with the wine already as i make my own wine without the sodium metabisulfite preservative. i also add a little horseradish paleo mayo as a condiment. yes, i make that as well. – coprophagous Jan 24 2012 at 6:23

My mouth just had a pleasure-gasm from THINKing about parmesan chips with pate. YUM :9 They are the easiest of the easy to make... You can actually do them in a microwave, don't have to use the oven. – November Jan 24 2012 at 6:31
Hmm, have to try it with red wine, thanks for the tip! – Wisper Jan 24 2012 at 10:18

I pound out a chicken breast, then stuff it with the pate and some sauteed spinach, or cale or collards, or chard and then roll it up and wrap the whole thing in bacon, and then bake in the oven (350 for 45 min) delicious!

Nice!! I'll have to try this. – Futureboy Jan 24 2012 at 16:51
Ooh so gonna try this one! – Grottenolm Jan 24 2012 at 19:37
Finally--a use for chicken breast that sounds awesome! I bet wrapping the breast in pancetta or prosciutto would be almost as good too...you know...if you didn't happen to have any bacon laying around ;) – Christopher Gagnon May 22 2012 at 16:07

I also make my own pate, with lamb liver, yum!

~ On cucumber/carrot/celery slices

~ Cut the cucumber lengthwise then scoop out all the seeds. Fill the gutter with pate = easy light lunch snack thing

~ As an omelette filling - smear inside before folding over

~ Wrap teaspoonfuls in sturdy lettuce leaves to form "parcels"

~ Just eaten alongside a good steak - smear on each piece of steak like a thick sauce as you eat

I slice cheddar cheese really thin with one of these

and spread it on the cheese.

I'm still getting myself used to the taste of liver, so when I first started I'd even put a little bit of this chipotle-bacon jam on top to mask the taste further.

I like it spread on salami style meats.

I just discovered my new favorite sandwich: Take one sheet of Seasnax seaweed, spread on duck rilettes. Take another, spread on pate. Squish together to make a sandwich. F#@#^@*&ing delicious IMHO.

Celery sticks for me. The channel is perfect for filling with pate and once you've done that, the pate piles up nicely even further. I always seem to run out of pate though, before I run out of celery...funny that!

I eat it right out of the wrapping, just like an avocado, with a spoon.

Happy Now's suggestion of parmesan chips is excellent, although the salt is a bit intense.

You can make a dozen and store them like biscuits.
