Only one week until our trip to Texas to see the family. It has been emotional ups and downs with the whole planning of this trip. It makes me hate going home, and quite honestly, that really sucks.
You try to make everyone happy...in the long run you should be making yourself happy, but its pretty difficult when everyone is trying to pull you in six different directions. Its our first year dealing with this though, so I am hoping it will get better as the years go by. One day maybe we'll be pros at this!
Made us a big pot of low carb beef stew last night, and here is the recipe:
The amounts in this particular recipe are VERY adjustable to suit your needs. I made a HUGE pot last night!
1lb of Stew meat
1/2 yellow onion (chopped into large pieces)
1 can cut green beans
3 medium turnips (chopped into bite size pieces)
2 cans rotel
1 pkg fresh mushrooms (sliced)
3 celery stalks (diced)
1 small head of cauliflour (divided into bite size pieces)
1 small bag of baby carrots (cut in half)
Pepper
Chili Powder
In a large pot, add onions, celery, mushrooms, pepper and chili powder; turn on high to get water close to boiling. While water is heating, season meat and chop veggies. As water starts to simmer add meat. Allow meat to cook through, then add turnips, cauliflour, baby carrots, and rotel. Allow all ingredients to boil until all are fork tender. When everything is tender and cooked, add green beans and allow to simmer on medium so flavor can soak in.
Enjoy!
