Making Stovetop Popcorn for Family Movie Night

Posted in Family, Homemaking, and Reviews

Special thanks to Moms Meet and Malaysian Palm Oil for providing a sample of the palm oil for our movie night. Around here, family movie night means gluten free pizza and popcorn. This week, we picked up Black Panther from Redbox as we haven’t seen it as a family yet. I decided that it was time for some stovetop popcorn as you can’t beat the flavor of that freshly popped popcorn. When my grandma was visiting a while back, I made stovetop popcorn, and she was really excited as she hadn’t had popcorn made like that for ages. She said…

Strawberry Hazelnut Graham Cracker Bites

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Reviews

Special thanks to Moms Meet and Once Again Nut Butter for providing a sample of the Amore Hazelnut Spread to use in this recipe. Sometimes you just want something sweet, fresh, and delicious, but you don’t want to bake anything. Around here, the weather is getting warmer, and we still want dessert without heating up the house with baked goods. I decided to pair gluten free graham crackers with Once Again Nut Butter Hazelnut Spread and fresh strawberries for a tasty treat. I really like Once Again Nut Butters as they are non-gmo project verified, certified gluten free, certified organic,…

Veggie Frittata

Every day, we receive beautiful, fresh eggs from our hens. I provide good food for them, and they, in turn, provide delicious eggs for us. While their egg production naturally slows down in the winter, our hens still laid some eggs throughout the winter. Thankfully, we didn’t have to buy any eggs from the store this winter even when many of the girls were going through a heavy molt. Now that the days are longer, we’re getting an abundance of eggs, so it’s time to focus on more egg-based recipes. While D is more than happy to have egg wraps…

Easy Chicken Cacciatore

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

After eating salads every day for the week, I had a craving for something different. I didn’t want anything complicated as it was just me eating, and I didn’t want to make the drive into town to get ingredients. After looking at I what I had on hand, I decided on this easy version of chicken cacciatore. You can cook up your own boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but I happened to have some already cooked sliced chicken breasts in the freezer that I decided to use to make cooking even easier. As soon as I started to smell the delicious…

Slow Cooker Roasted Stuffed Breakfast Peppers

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

We’ve been fortunate that our chickens have continued to lay throughout the winter. Even though their laying has slowed down some due to the shorter days, I still end up with extra eggs around the house. When I find that I have too many extra eggs on hand, I like to come up with creative ways to use our surplus eggs. Since we love stuffed peppers around here, I thought it would be fun to make a twist on a traditional omelet. Instead of putting the peppers inside the omelet, I would put the omelet in the pepper. While this…
