Happy New Year Sale! Honeyville Blanched Almond Flour as low as $4.25 a pound!

By Kelly · 2 Comments

From muffins, cakes and cookies to pies, biscuits and crackers – the ideas are endless for creating nutritious and delicious recipes using blanched almond flour and coconut flour! (photo of Almond Flour Thumbprint Cookies)

My wonderful friends at Honeyville Farms are at it again – providing 15% off your ENTIRE order now through Tuesday, January 22, 2013.

Simply enter coupon code RESOLVE during checkout.

So if you’ve been tossing around the idea of doing your own Test Kitchen Showdown with their high quality blanched almond flour, or you’re simply looking for a great bargain on their terrific products, now’s the time to order!

Honeyville’s 5-lb bag of blanched almond flour (or 5-lb bag of coconut flour) is just $27.19 with the coupon code (which equates to $5.45 per pound). And if you use blanched almond flour a couple of times a week or more, I recommend purchasing the *bulk size (25lbs) for $106.24 with coupon code. That’s just $4.25 per pound!

As most of you know, blanched almond flour and coconut flour are two of my favorite GF staples! Both are quite easy to work with and make the most delicious light, fluffy baked goods. Even more important, they are much more nutritious compared to typical GF flour blends that consist mainly of starches such as rice, tapioca and potato. Blanched almond flour and coconut flour are both low in carbohydrates and are high in protein and dietary fiber, as well as contain many beneficial nutrients.

*Tip: If you decide to save big and purchase the 25-lb size, simply repackage it into your own 5-lb containers or ziplock-style bags and place one in your pantry and the rest in the freezer. Blanched almond flour will stay fresh in an airtight container in the pantry for about 6-8 weeks and will stay fresh in an airtight container in the freezer for up to six months.

Lots-O-Broccoli Soup (GF)

By Kelly · 8 Comments


Lots-o-broccoli is truly a good thing! That’s because it’s a powerhouse of nutrition – chock-full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

One of the ways we enjoy the surplus of broccoli that’s available at this time of year, is to whip-up this creamy soup that warms both the heart and tummy! It’s absolutely delicious, which is why it’s not surprising that it’s one of my most requested soup recipes.

And, bonus! … Lots-O-Broccoli Soup makes especially great leftovers. (So why not freeze a double batch for a quick and easy weeknight dinner!)

For an extra special treat, top it with a handful of crunchy homemade croutons. You can find my easy-to-make Garlic Herb Croutons recipe by checking out another one of our favorite Wintertime soups – Creamy Tomato Soup. Enjoy!

Lots-O-Broccoli Soup (GF)

Yield: 4 one-cup servings

Lots-O-Broccoli Soup (GF)

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp butter (or ghee)
  • 1 cup sliced leeks (white parts only)
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 cups homemade chicken stock
  • 12 ounces fresh organic broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (or milk of your choice)
  • 1 cup shredded grassfed cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. In a large stockpot over medium heat, add the butter, leeks, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Cook until the leeks begin to soften. Then, stir in the garlic and thyme. Cook about two minutes, stirring until the mixture is well blended.
  2. Next, add the chicken stock. Turn up the heat to medium-high and bring soup to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and simmer about five minutes to allow the soup to reduce a bit.
  3. Then, add the broccoli, cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender (approximately 10 minutes). Remove the pot from the heat. Puree the soup using a hand-held immersion blender. Or puree in a blender or food processor and return to the stockpot.
  4. Next, add the shredded cheese, stirring constantly until cheese is melted and fully incorporated into the soup. Finally, stir in milk.
  5. Top with handful of garlic-herb croutons, if desired. So YUMMY!

Notes

This is a very thick, rich soup, so if it's a bit thick for your liking, simply add a little more chicken stock to thin it out to your personal preferences. I do this for my kiddos, who prefer a thinner soup than I do. I like it milkshake thick. Okay, so maybe a broccoli milkshake doesn't sound appetizing, but you know what I mean. 🙂

Easy Crockpot Beef Stew (GF, DF)

By Kelly · 21 Comments

The New Year always brings a higher level of excitement and activity to our lives, as we get back to school, homework, sports, and of course, all of our various church ministries! So, what’s a busy mom to do?

I recommend breaking out the crockpot and filling it full of real food ingredients on those especially busy days. That way, you can focus your energy on the tasks for the day, knowing that a healthy home-cooked meal awaits you and your family.

This classic comfort dish is made using grassfed beef chuck, which is one of the best choices for making beef stew. The fat content in beef chuck actually lends itself well to slow cooking, resulting in delectable fork-tenderness and rich flavor. So for this reason, I do not recommend substituting with a leaner cut of beef.

Pair this hearty beef stew with my light and fluffy Garden Herb Biscuits for the perfect wintertime meal that warms the tummy and the soul!

Easy Crockpot Beef Stew (GF, DF)

Yield: 6 servings

Easy Crockpot Beef Stew (GF, DF)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs *grassfed beef chuck, cut into 2-inch cubes
  • 3 tbsp organic tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (I prefer Bariani balsamic vinegar - aff.link)
  • 1 1/3 cup beef stock (homemade is best)
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 small sprig fresh rosemary (or 1/4 tsp dried rosemary)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 1/2 lbs small white or red potatoes, peeled & cut in half
  • 5-6 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 lb green beans, trimmed and cut into 3-inch lengths
  • Optional: 1-2 tbsp arrowroot powder

Instructions

  1. Cut beef chuck into 2-inch chunks (do not trim off fat for best flavor). Place the beef chunks in a 6-quart slow cooker and generously season with about a half-teaspoon of sea salt and a half-teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
  2. Next, add the tomato paste, vinegar and beef stock. Use a wooden spoon to combine.
  3. Then, add the garlic, bay leaf and rosemary. Top with the chopped onion, potatoes and carrots in that order. Do not stir.
  4. Cover slow cooker; cook on high until beef is fork-tender, about 5 hours (or cook on low heat about 7-8 hours).
  5. During last 30-45 minutes of cook time, stir the green beans into the stew. If you’d like to thicken up the broth, just before serving, add about 1-2 tablespoons of arrowroot powder, making sure to thoroughly stir it into the stew.
  6. Serve with crusty bread topped with butter, or my yummy Garden Herb Biscuits.

Notes

*Grassfed beef is a much healthier choice than commercially-produced beef. If you cannot find grassfed beef at your local markets, U.S. Wellness Meats carries a wide selection.
