Take or WIN! That’s right, I get to giveaway one entry to this wonderful new e-course. See details at the bottom of this post.

Surf & Turf is being taught by CHEESESLAVE. She’s one of my favorite food bloggers and always posts wonderful recipes. She is one of the founding members of Real Food Media and truly is a real food expert. I often look to her site when I have questions about food, health, and cooking. I highly recommend that you check out her site even if you don’t end up signing up for the class.

I do hope that you do sign up for the class though because it sounds like it’s going to be amazing! Here are just a few things that will be covered in the course:

• How to become a master of the grill and make great BBQ meals.
• How to prepare great tasting healthy organ meats.
• How to save money by buying half a cow and how to prepare the less popular cuts of meat.
• How to make bone broths, soups, gravies and reduction sauces.
• How to buy sustainable and healthy sea food where ever you live.
• How to prepare sea food so that it tastes great and the whole family will love it.

Check out the promotional video:

And click here for more information on the class and for great information on the health benefits of eating meat and sea food.

This class is perfect for those of you following a GAPS or Low-Carb diet and it’s also great if you are following a paleo or primal way of eating. It’s grain-free and sugar-free (although there is the occasional use of honey in a few recipes).

Maybe you’ve just been stuck in a rut always cooking hamburger, steak or chicken breast? This class will show you how to branch out and use cuts of meat and types of fish that you might not be used to using. It will also show you new ways to prepare old favorites.

Personally I am super excited about this class! It’s covers exactly the types of things I’ve been wanting to learn lately. I have wanted to add more meat into my families diet, but I find it hard to do and I definitely get stuck sometimes. I’d especially be interested to learn more about how to prepare different organ meats. I’m relatively comfortable preparing liver, but that’s the only organ meat I’ve ever cooked before. It would be great to branch out in terms of healthy organ meats. I’d also love to learn some good ways to prepare cheaper cuts of meat since we are on a very tight budget right now.

The class costs $120 dollars for 12 classes – that’s only $10 a class. It also includes over 100 printable recipes, a forum for class members only, shopping lists and suggestions and discount coupons from companies that CHEESESLAVE personally uses and trusts. I think this is a really great deal.

But, if you are on a tight budget (like I am) don’t be discouraged you can win this class right HERE! Can you tell how excited I am about this. I’ve never done a giveaway on my blog before and I’m so glad that this is the first one I’m doing because I think this class is going to totally ROCK!

If you are interested in taking this class sign up soon, because enrollment ends Saturday, August 14th!!

Terms and Conditions
*Airfare included, up to 800 USD plus meals at Belushi’s and free stay in premium double ensuite. Invitation to grand opening party in October included.
**Free weekend stays subject to availability and do not apply to holidays.

I’m so excited to tell you about this fun contest, not just because you could win a trip to Prague, but also because Mosaic House is a project that is close to my heart.

We’ve been on the sidelines watching this project as it’s grown up and developed. We’ve heard about the visions, dreams and passions for this place for about three years now. We’ve watched as plans have changed and difficult decisions have been made. You see, we live with some of the owners of Mosaic House and many of the managers for this new hotel are also friends of ours. We are so excited for them that this project is finally coming to fruition.

I’m sure I’ll be talking more about Mosaic House soon cause Bryan and I are going to go stay there sometime in the next few weeks (we’ll bring Thaddeus too and see what he thinks of this new Prague hotel). I can’t wait to see what it’ll be like for myself. Enter the contest and you could see what it’ll be like for yourself too.
