Beef – Notes from Aunt Gem

Didn’t I just plan Keto meals for a week?

It’s that time again … time to set myself up for a good week of Keto Living by planning ahead and shopping conscientiously. It feels like I do this all the time! Now that I’m doing Keto, I’m cooking at home more than ever. So, time to plan out some menus. As always, I’m turning to my new favorite cookbook, Simply Keto.

Shopping my freezer

I’ve got so much meat from my last Butcher Box delivery that I need to use up. More filet mignons mean I’m making Filet Mignon with Gorgonzola Sauce! Other dishes I’m going to re-make this week:

Keto Crackers
Twice-Baked Cauliflower Casserole (it’s the faux potato dish I love so much)
Keto Chili

New recipes I’m going to try this week include:

Keto Beef Stroganoff (from the Keto Karma website.)
Grilled Parmesan Chicken Wings (gotta use all those wings in the freezer!)
Sunny Side Up Burgers

Here’s to a week of happy eating!

Unboxing my ButcherBox

Please note – Butcher Box is not a sponsor. (Although I’m open to it!) Instead, I’m reviewing the shipment I received today because I am just that happy with the service. And it makes Keto living so much easier.

This afternoon I arrived home to find that this month’s Butcher Box meat delivery box was on the front porch, ready for me to load to my freezer. I quickly whisked it indoors and started taking the pictures I’m sharing with you during the unboxing. I used to worry about whether the meat will stay frozen. It can sit outside on my porch several hours between delivery and my arrival home. I needn’t have worried; these guys know what they’re doing with the amount of dry ice they put in the boxes. Even though the dry ice had evaporated, all my meat was still frozen and looked good.

Here’s what the package looked like, both inside and outside.
