The E.H. Fitness 21-Day January Jump Start is HERE!

Anyone feeling like they are stuffed to the brim with cookies, cheese, fun holiday drinks, etc? I know I am feeling full and sluggish and ready for a health reset! And what a great time for one...right when New Year's Resolutions are happening. Did you know that over 90% of New Year's Resolutions fail? There are a lot of reasons why, but one of the biggest is that they aren't measurable, they aren't supported and they aren't reasonable. 

There is hope!

If you're ready to increase your health and decrease your body fat with exercise, good sleep, hydration and nutrient dense food, then join me and a small group of others with the same goals and game plan to get right back on track...with a measurable, supported and reasonable program!

You can do anything for 21 days...promise. It may not be easy, but it will be worth it and I'll be right there with you the entire way.

Steak Soup (Plaza III Copy Cat)

This soup is something else...it’s sooo delicious and filling and wam. AND if you live in the KC area and have ever had the steak soup at Plaza III, this is definitely a second best (or the best since it’s diary and gluten free but still had that thick feel).

Steak Soup

What you need:

  • 1/2 cup gluten free flour (I use Bob’s Red Mill)
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil
  • 8 cups beef broth (hot)
  • 2 lbs ground sirloin (hamburger will work here too but if you can get the ground steak, so that)
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks of celery, chopped
  • 1 bag frozen mixed veggies
  • 2 cans diced tomatoes
  • Dash of oregano
  • Pinch of garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

What you do:

  1. Heat the oil in a large stock pot, when hot, slowly whisk in the flour until smooth.*
  2. Slowly add hot broth to the roux (the oil and flour mixture) until smooth.
  3. Let the broth mixture simmer a bit while you brown and drain the meat.
  4. Dump the meat, chopped veggies, frozen veggies and diced tomatoes into the broth mixture
  5. Bring to boil and the simmer for at least an hour.
  6. Enjoy!!




*If you want to make a roux the old fashion way with flour and butter, go for it...the substitute is 1:1.
