Did someone say DELICIOUS HAMBURGERS?


By Tania Prociuk

For 9 Homemade Hamburger Patties Mix:

2 pounds of fresh (not previously frozen) ground beef
1 egg beaten
3/4 cups dry bread crumbs
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/8 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 Chopped Onion 
2 Minced Garlic Cloves

Mix everything into a bowl and then empty the contents into a large freezer bag.  Place the bag on a cookie sheet and use a chopstick to separate the burgers.  Freeze.  You can go back and remove the cookie sheet once the burgers are entirely frozen. 



Or just use ground beef to create portions instead of thawing the entire package using the same concept. Place ground beef into a freezer bag and then onto a cookie sheet and use a chopstick to separate portions.  Freeze.  You can go back and remove the cookie sheet once the meat is entirely frozen. 



Another helpful thing with ground beef is to buy it in bulk, follow the tip above to freeze some fresh ground beef.  Then cook some on the stove top.  Drain and place the cooked ground beef in freezer bags once it has cooled.  ****This is great for last min bolognese, lasagna, tacos, chili, sloppy joes, shepherd's pie, enchiladas, mince meat pie... etc. 


Don't smell like a gorilla. Simple instant fix.

I am definitely not a fan of antiperspirant and cancer causing deodorants, check out how to solve the B/O problem instantly...



1.  Wash your body!  Plain and simple.  


2.  Use antibacterial soap, Dial works great or go completely natural with Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile Soap.





3.  Once you are out of the shower, dry off well and apply a natural crystal deodorant.


4.  Wear clean clothing. Or all the steps above will backfire.


5.  Eat properly.  *Tip: Although super healthy, onion and garlic doesn't just linger on your breath it comes out your pores and sweat glands as well.




6.   Last and most important step in fighting body-odor.  Body Odor is caused by bacteria growth.  When you are at home or on the road and find that your not smelling exactly like roses....it is because of bacteria.  Rub on a little antibacterial hand sanitizer under the arms to rectify the problem.

Burt's Bees makes a great natural hand sanitizer or there is always Purell (which is in every office building, hospital or public location for the most part).

Tea Tree Oil works perfectly as well, a table spoon of the oil and water will do the trick, each time before use just give it a shake and spray it on the stinky area.
