Hello Everyone!
We’re into our first real week of getting real with ourselves and changing our lives. I’ve brought you a few videos already to help guide you through that beginning. There was learning to overcome your fears and taking the small steps toward a better life. We’ve discussed ways to save a little money, especially when you dine out and other simple ways to cut costs on your grocery bill. Along with lifestyle changes for a better life, we also need to think about the food that we are putting into our body. What benefits it has for us, how it will fuel our bodies and keep us full and energetic throughout the day.
I will be sharing recipes with you that I use in my daily life to help
you start to make those positive changes for your body. They will be amazing, simple, and packed with
flavor. And the best part is they will
be homemade and not full of the garbage that processed store bought foods are
loaded with! If you ever have any
questions about the content of this blog, either videos or recipes, leave a
comment below or follow my Facebook page and leave me a comment there and I
will happily help you out!
I’m here to help, no matter what stage you are at in your journey to
getting fit and healthy!
So today, since we just got done celebrating Thanksgiving last week, I
thought it would be a great opportunity to show you what you can do with those
leftovers! I have a delicious turkey
soup recipe for you, and it comes with directions on how to make your own stock
from the turkey bones!! Enjoy!
Homemade Turkey Stock
and Soup
STOCK:
Turkey meat trimmings and bones
3 carrots
2 yellow onions, chopped
2 celery sticks, chopped
3 bay leaves
1/2 tsp. white pepper
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1. Take your turkey bones and trimmings and place them in a large crock pot (remove as much meat
as possible, you will need 3-4 cups of meat)
2. Peel and chop your carrots. Place the chopped carrots in the fridge and add the peels to the crock
pot.
3. Add celery, onions, bay leaves, and peppers to your crock pot.
4. Fill pot with water and cook on medium heat for 12-18 hours.
5. Put strainer over a large stock pot and drain your crock pot into the strainer and slowly stir the
contents of your strainer (the bones will be grey/white and clean of meat).

hours.

2 cups chopped green beans
1 cup FRESH chopped mushrooms
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. white peppers
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. parsley
3-4 cups chopped turkey meat
1. Remove pot from fridge and skim off all fat from the top.

3. Reduce heat to simmer
4. Add soup ingredients
