With life rolling at full speed, it’s easy to turn to sugar filled snacks simply because they are at hands reach. We are trying to cut down on refined sugar and it’s easier said than done! So, to keep our hands away from the pre-packed snacks, I decided to make my own.

Spring means that bugs will soon come out outside. It also means that a lot of health bugs are going around! For me, since 2018 started, I had the sniffles, a full blown cold with the chills and fever and this past Friday, a stomach bug!

Simple, I’ll have to cook it inside (our trusted Weber is still away because of the snow) and it’s just not the same! I can make though a very tasty minute steak that will also look amazing plated!
There is less than 30 days left until Spring arrives. If you are like me, you are looking forward to the birds chirping and the warmer weather. In my household, Spring also means that soup season is over. While we still have the chance, why not indulge ourselves in a warm, meat filled soup!
