Winn Dixie, Publix, and Target Deals!
I noticed all the coupons that came in the paper this Sunday.........$5 off $40 purchase at Publix, $5 off $50 purchase at Winn Dixie, and $10 off $50 food and beverage purchase at Target. Wow! As soon as I got back into town I went right to town clipping and researching coupons. After chatting with my sis in law, she mentioned the $10 off Target coupon and how she grocery shops there...hmmm....maybe I should give it a whirl? So I went online and clipped coupons after doing the whole cartwheel thing. I was able to stack coupons plus use cartwheel....triple awesome!

Paleo Slow Cooker Beef Stew
Here is a new recipe I found online this weekend. It turned out really good!
Ingredients
2 lbs. grass fed beef stew meat (I used lean stew beef)
1-2 sweet potatoes (quartered)
1 yellow onion, (chopped)
1 tbsp. bacon fat (I used coconut oil)
6 oz. can of organic tomato paste
3/4 cup red wine (I used 1 cup)
1 cup baby carrots
1 cup sliced mushrooms
bag of frozen green peas
2.5 cups beef broth
3 cloves of garlic (minced)
1 tsp. thyme
1 bay leaf
1 tsp. marjoram
1 pinch of salt
Instructions
1. In a large saucepan, heat the bacon fat (coconut oil) over medium-high heat.
2. Once the pan is searing hot, add the cubed beef to the pan, cook until its brown on all sides. It's important that you only add the beef once the pan is very hot, this produces a good sear and keeps in the beef's juicy goodness. Once the meat is ready, place it in your slow cooker.
3. Fry the chopped onions in the saucepan at medium heat for about 5 mins.
4. Add the red wine and tomato paste to the pan with the onions and let it simmer for 3 minutes. Add to the slow cooker.
5. Stir in the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker.
6. Cook for 8 hours on low (5-6 hours on high)
7.. Serve and enjoy!
