I was invited to attend a cooking event with local Dallas bloggers sponsored by The Texas Beef Council. Beef and bloggers? I was so in!
A big bonus was when Chef Richard Chamberlain from Chamberlain's Steak and Chop House came out for a cooking demonstration. He explained all about cooking beef and shared some recipes from his book, The Healthy Beef Cookbook.
I also enjoyed meeting Angela Lemond, from MommyDietitian.com, who spoke to us about healthy eating options for kids. My favorite advice she gave us was to take the fruit and vegetables out of the refrigerator crisper so they won't be forgotten!
Move healthy foods to the shelves and put items like eggs and condiments in the crisper. Angela will be happy to know I spent Sunday cleaning out my fridge and now the eggs are in the crisper!
Angela also inspired me to get back to my weekly meal plans. YAY! So look for some new meal plans in the next few weeks.
After drooling over the food, and the chef, I promptly got my photo with Chef Richard!
Then we were sorted into teams to make fabulous beef recipes.
My favorite dish of the day was the Beef Tenderloin, Cranberry and Pear salad. It was so easy and delicious!
I had never made homemade honey mustard salad dressing before, and was pleasantly surprised at how simple it was to make.
I'm happy that I was given permission to share this Beef Tenderloin Salad recipe with you. I hope you enjoy this incredible salad!
