Written By Peppermint Ridge Farm Co.

Your calendar is looking full in the run into Christmas isn't it! I hear you!



Annual Family gatherings and traditions



Last days of school.



Christmas Carols.



Local Christmas Pageants.



Lobethal Lights Drives (with hot cinnamon donuts!)


Seeing the real animals at the Lobethal Living Nativity,



And all the rest we do to make sure our kids get to feel the real magic of Christmas, each and every precious year of their childhood.



Sometimes at this time of year it can get to late afternoon and plans for a nourishing family dinner are yet to surface.



So I have got your back this week, in the lead into Christmas


I bring you 3 Quick and Nourishing Grass Fed Beef Meal ideas that will take the load off of meal planning and help you to know that your children will go to bed with full tummy's, nourished with protein. 


These nourishing Grass Fed Beef meals will help even out for the extra treats and Christmas sweet that seem to become more regular at this time of year. 


Especially if you have attended a local country pageant where lollies generously tossed out by local businesses to kids and locals.


Excitedly awaiting on the side of the streets as floats from local wineries, brass bands and local schools and business' bring colour and cheer to local country communities, which brings close the feeling of Christmas to our hearts.
