Before we talk stew today, I wanna know how everyone’s weekend was!
This past weekend, Trevor and I had our very first SMTY Food Video Workshop. For those of you that don’t know, Show Me the Yummyalong with The Blog Village (our membership site where we teach YOU how tocreate/grow/monetize your blog) hosted a workshop where we taught other bloggers how to make “tasty style” food videos (the ones you see all over Facebook and our Youtube Page).
There’s only ONEspot left for our November workshop, so if you’re interested, sign up! We’d love to meet you.♡
This past weekend was a ton of work, but it was also so so SO fun and full of learning, laughter, of course, so.much.food.
The workshop was all day Friday/Saturday, so on Sunday, Trevor and I literally did not move from the couch.
Because I had approximately zero energy to think about what we were going to have for dinner, I knew I needed something that was
- Easy
- Totally delicious
- Really healthy (hellllooooo eating outfor the past two weeks)
You guys. ThisHealthy Turkey Stew Recipe totally fits the bill.
All you’re going to do is throw all the ingredients into your crockpot – Jennie-OExtra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins, onion, carrots, potato, celery, mushrooms, garlic, broth, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, thyme, and a touch of tomato paste – and let it cook loooooow and sloooooow all day. At the very end you’ll whisk in a little butter and cornstarch just to thicken the stew up a bit.
Easy✔️
Because of the balsamic and #allthespices this stew is also super delicious. The balsamic adds an amazing tang and rosemary/thyme is my all time fave fall spice combo.
Delicious ✔️
My favorite part of this recipe, however, is how darn healthy is it! I LOVE usingJennie-OExtra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins to lighten up my favorite comfort foods. It allows me to eat all thecozy and delicious things without the guilt! ThisHealthy Turkey Stew is also loaded with vegetables which I, for one, can never get enough of during the fallseason.
Healthy✔️
Long story short, make this stew and be full, happy, and cozy without any of the guilt!
Yes? Yes!
