Savvy with Abbie

Merry Christmas! Today and tomorrow I'm hoping to catch up on blogging because next week I will be in Utah for five days with Jace. I'm so excited to see my family. About a week ago I made this beef stew. Now, I know that my photos aren't that great but trust me, it was a delicious stew. It's been raining non-stop here for the past 4-5 days (with just a few breaks in between) so if you are looking for a beef stew that can sit in the crockpot all day, this is it. This is another recipe from Diabetes Food Hub and can be found HERE .  Ingredients: 3 tbsp flour 1 tbsp olive oil 3 cups low sodium beef broth 1 cup water Carrots, chopped 1 tbsp onion powder 1/2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp dried thyme 2 pounds beef stew meat, or stew meat Directions: In a crockpot, add all of the ingredients. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Serve in a bowl with biscuits.

It's been awhile since I have made a blog post and that's really because I haven't done much cooking this past week - or I've cooked meals such as spaghetti which ya'll don't need a recipe for :) We also had some take-out this week because it was a 3-day weekend. Nothing like legit Mexican food and Popeye's chicken :) I finally got my stationary bike together so my goal starting today is to start working out on a consistent basis. You should also be expecting more food recipes this week as I will be cooking more :)  Yesterday morning I was prepared to make this Classic Beef Stew and then I realized it was not a crockpot recipe. SO I decided to just make my own and it turned out really good. In fact, there aren't any leftovers! So if you make this, let me know in the comments below if you liked it or not! We had ours with biscuits on the side. Enjoy! Ingredients: 1/2 tsp pepper 1/2 tsp salt 1 pound beef stew meat, cut in 1/2 or 1/3 pieces depending on siz
