Say What?!?!
Okay, so this started out as an apple and cinnamon water, but as I was putting it together I just started throwing other things in….. sooooo anyway, here is what we got:
Vanilla Blueberry Apple Cinnamon Water
Put all ingredients together and refrigerate overnight. Drink off water for the next two days, you can add water, vanilla and honey to the mixture if you run out, but pitch after two days.
Insect Repellent Spray
Combine ingredients in a spray bottle. spray on skin before going outdoors. You can also spritz on your outdoor furniture and other things in the area you are going to be hanging around in.
Beef and Cabbage Soup
Put the beef, 24 oz of the chicken broth, the garlic, and 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper in a large pot on the stove. Add water until meat is covered. Cook on low to med-low until meat is fully cooked. Drain and break up meat to desired size. Place beef back in pot. Add the reserved cup of chicken broth, apple juice, cabbage, tomatoes, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt and pepper. Add water until you see the liquid, DO NOT completely immerse everything, just bring fluid levels to about 1/4-1/2″ from the top of your stuff. Cook on low to med-low for approx 1 hour until cabbage is tender.
Natural Homemade Dish Detergent Tabs
Combine ingredients in a bowl, should be the consistency of sugar cookie dough so add juice or washing soda to get to right consistency.
Spoon mixture into ice cube trays and sit in the sun to dry.
Pop them out and put a tab in your detergent compartment of your dishwasher to wash your dishes.
Hamburger Pie
Pie Crust:
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, butter and salt. Blend until a doughy texture takes shape. Press the dough out into a 9″ pie dish, making sure all surface is covered.
Pie Filling:
Preheat oven to 350º F. Sauté onions in the butter until they begin to become slightly translucent. Add the ground beef to the onions and cook until the beef is thoroughly cooked. Mix the BBQ sauce in with the beef and add salt and pepper to taste. Pour the beef mixture into the crust and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, add lettuce, avocados and peppers then serve.
Softer Bread Recipe
Add ingredients in order to bread machine. Cook on whole wheat setting if your machine has it. Yields 2-2.5 lb loaf.
Yes, this IS the butt end of the loaf, when it got done, we plowed through most of it before I realized I needed a photo for this post, so here is another picture of my sandwich with tuna salad.
Tuna Salad with Garlic, Onion and Parsley
This was a delicious addition to our breakfast. I hadn’t planned on adding it to the blog, but it was too tasty not to share.
Fried Apples w/ Cinnamon
Melt butter on low in a large skillet. Add the rest of the ingredients, mix well, cover and cook on low until desired tenderness. I cooked mine on super low for about an hour, stirring occasionally.
ooo-la-la!!!! Crockpot, oh how I love thee! This recipe is a winner, winner, chicken dinner!!! I put the if you use your own or fresh measurements or if you buy organic in a can measurements, I like to do fresh when I can, but let’s be real; it ain’t always happenin’!
Tex-Mex Chicken
Place chicken along the bottom of your crock pot, sprinkle 4 T of the Taco Seasoning over the chicken, continue layering with rest of the ingredients in the order listed, ending with sprinkling the second 4 T of Taco Seasoning over the top. Cover and let cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Stir, shredding chicken as you do, serve with tortillas (we use whole wheat ones with this, yum). Add guacamole, sour cream etc for extra yum!
