Thanks for hosting! My post this week debunks the claim that grazing animals are bad for the planet. Properly managed grazing restores grassland and increases the water supply. And grassfed meat is good for humans too!
Stanley Fishman\’s last post: Why Grassfed Meat Is Good for the Planet
Stanley, your case for grazing animals is valid and warranted but vegans have a point as well – both sides can and have put together studies, and have complied stats, and that battle can rage on ad infinitum.
You love beef as do so many including my self – I am about to try a bacon burger that is actually half ground bacon and ground beef – as opposed to bacon strip – saw it on tv and the taste oozed through the television.
The issue for me is that the sacrifice these animals make is wasted. We eat meat presumably not just for the taste, but for it’s nutrient value, it’s protein content. However your barbecue burgers that you spoke of in the blog don’t have any biologic protein left in them – which is fine for me (I’ll just take my BBQ burger with a slice of cheddar – and a beer!).
Hello!

Hi Sarah,
I love easy cooking, which isn’t always easy when you want to eat real food. I’m sharing my tutorial on how to batch cook soaked beans for both convenience and easy digestion.
Thanks for hosting!

Good morning! I am sharing my family recipe for Creole Red Beans & Rice. This recipe is very adaptable. You can omit the rice and add additional liquid to create a delicious Red Bean Soup, or omit the meat and make a yummy veg meal. Hope you enjoy!
Thanks for hosting, as always.

Mrs H\’s last post: Keeping Onions
If you have too many onions to store, or you don’t have space for cold storage – this may be the post for you! Besides freezing them, you can also dry onions and make flakes or powder.

Hello everyone!
Thanks very much for hosting, Sarah!
As a lifestyles writer and holistic health coach, I’m always on the lookout for clean REAL food that nourishes….I share with you one that deliciously fits the bill. Should you find yourself in norther Dutchess County in the Hudson Valley, be sure to stop in at Mercato Osteria and Enoteca. Local, market-fresh ingredients star in chef Francesco Buitoni’s simple, yet sophisticated osteria-style fare. Destination worthy…if you crave authentic Italian. My blog is http://upstatedowntownny.com. My post and review of Mercato here: http://bit.ly/RomaOnTheHudson
