Moose... It's what's for dinner


I've been craving beef lately.  I want steak, a burger, prime rib....purée is getting to me.  I can't even do yogurt right now.  I'm so cold all I want is warm hearty food.  I think it's partly the fact that I'm not eating carbs and the fact that it's freezing cold outside. {interestingly enough - I'm not too cold to have my nightly sugar free fudgscicle or Popsicle}. I don't think anything will ever stop me from some kind of dessert.

Although soup fills me up and I'm satisfied - I wanted homemade, like mom made, beef something.  Out came the moose steaks given to us when I was first out of the hospital.  I crock-potted them with carrots, potatoes, onion and spices
It smelled so good!  
The family {even picky T} ate it up.  
I puréed mine into mush.....
Even in this gross looking form it was sooooo good!!!  Soooooo good!

A few weeks ago - before my surgery I found some trays made for freezing and storing homemade baby food.  Since I knew I'd be eating like a baby for a while, I picked them up on a whim.  They complemented the Beaba Baby Cook that I picked up {Value Village is my friend} a couple months ago.  

So now I have a tray full of moose mush ready to pop out and heat up when I feel like moose for dinner! 

PS - I'm down 25 pounds
