Souper Suppers On the Wild Side!

I will continue to sing the praises of Fall tonight. When the weather turns chilly, my family turns to me for SOUP! One of their faves is my Veggie Beef Soup and thanks to my husband, the hunter, I have the pleasure of using organic venison in my soup. Did you know that a three-ounce serving of venison provides on 134 calories and three grams of fat, including only one gram of saturated fat? Beef gives you 259 calories for the same three-ounce serving, and 18 grams of fat, including seven grams of fat! Not only is this a lean source of protein but it is delicious especially if you know how to prepare it. Hope you enjoy this one!
