Ann Marie Michaels aka CHEESESLAVE spoke to us today about her exciting new online class, Surf and Turf: Cooking Wild Seafood and Grass-fed Meats. Have you ever wondered about the difference between farm-raised and wild caught fish? Are you afraid to prepare fish because you don’t know what to do with it? Did you buy half of a cow from your local grass fed farmer and wonder how to cook all that meat? Listen to the podcast and read more to find out what Ann Marie will be covering in her class and how you can win this $120 value for FREE with our GIVEAWAY August 6-11.
Ann Marie is the founder of Real Food Media, a blog network in which we participate as featured bloggers. If you follow her on Twitter, Facebook, or CHEESESLAVE, then you know this woman can cook! She is passionate about real food, slow food, and nutrient dense food. In this podcast interview she tells us her story of recovering from health issues related to vegetarianism, the importance of protein, and details about her new cooking class.
The class is called Surf and Turf! Cooking wild seafood and grass-fed meats. In it you will learn how to prepare raw fish and organ meats that your family will love, using inexpensive cuts of meat to prepare delicious and nutritious meals, make nutrient-dense bone broths and reduction sauces to make gourmet touches to budget meals, prepare grain-free and low-carb meals, save money by purchasing whole or partial cows and cooking all of it, learning how to purchase and prepare fantastic seafood, no matter where you live.
Lessons will be online and you can take them at your convenience. There are a total of 13 lessons – only about nine dollars per class. What a bargain for skills you can use for a lifetime! Here is a promotional video that Ann Marie put together describing the class. You can tell just from the quality of this short video that the class will be well worthwhile.

Thank you, Erin, Tara, Joann, and Melinda! We appreciate your support. Good luck!
I’m already subscribed! Can I enter? I love Ann Marie’s site as much as I LOVE you site.
btw…we’re in Wisconsin at Curt’s mom right now and went to the local farmers market yesterday. Wow was it nice….one of the farmers told me her county, Monroe, has more organic farms than any other county in the US. The food here is delicious.

Thanks for signing up, Tammy!
Great Show and we have missed your podcasts in the past few weeks, know you are busy with the farm. I was sort of on the fence with signing up for Ann Marie’s class not that it does not sound wonderful and all but I just did not think I could dedicate the time right now, but after listing to your interview I am sold, please sign me up for the contest and let me know how to get your newsletter. Even if I don’t win I will be signing up as I think Ann Marie is going to hit every topic I have questions about with cooking grasfed. Not that I am not currently trying but the family has been subjected to a few less than tender meals:( Looking forward to fixing that.
Lynn, yes, you are entered due to your comment about the newsletter. Hugs to Curt. Isn’t it interesting how northern and midwestern states with a short growing season are often more committed than the southeastern states with our long growing season to farmer’s markets and organic methods? Maybe we take it too much for granted.
Hi! I signed up for the RSS feed. I’m still waiting for the activation email, though. Looking forward to hearing more podcasts (and possibly winning the contest)!
Kim;
I’m looking at the email subscriptions and I don’t see your yahoo email address listed. Did you sign up with another one? If you used the yahoo email, then something failed in the process. You can either sign up again or let me know and I’ll add you from my end. //Jon

Wonderful class! Looking forward to the class! Let’s see… I tweeted the class…
I posted on Facebook…
(My brain’s half-baked – did I really type “class” three times in that first post???) I commented on iTunes…
