Going Green and Organic

After buying one of the best rated juicers, I suddenly realized that if I would be juicing fruits and vegetables, I would have to get rid of all those pesticides they sprayed on it otherwise I would be ingesting them and that would totally defeat the purpose of healthy eating. So I looked into the possibility of buying organic produce. I found some organic vegetables and fruits in a local farmers market but was very surprised to know how much it cost. The organic produces prices were very much different from those of the fruits and veggies found in groceries. When I asked the farmer why it costs more when they didnt need to spray it with pesticides, he answered they were a lot harder to grow. They needed special care and that keeping bugs, insects and pests from these crops are more challenging. I understood what he meant. But I did switch to organic produce, at least as far as juicing is concerned.

Make Your Own Ground Beef at Home

Ground beef is one of the most versatile meats available for cooking. Unfortunately, it seems like the ground beef that is available at most grocery stores is not of a very good quality. There are also issues you should be aware of when it comes to store bought ground beef. Ground beef is often the source for contamination in the meat supply. If you make your own ground beef at home, you won’t have to worry about these issues. Making ground beef is easy with a meat grinder. To get the best quality, choose cuts of beef that are on sale that contain the amount of fat you would like in your ground beef. Fat adds flavor when cooking with ground beef, so you’ll want some when you’re grinding. However, you do not want to add to much fat content if you’re making certain recipes. If your ground beef contains a lot of fat, your burgers may have flavor but they will shrink while cooking.
