Project 365 – #174 The crockpot is definitely my friend when I’m not feeling well. I can toss all of the ingredients into the pot and pretty much forget about it. Last night, I tossed in a pound of ground chicken, 2 cans of organic multi-color beans, 1 can of organic tomato sauce, 1/2 jar of roasted green chili sauce, 3 large organic tomatoes diced, and some seasonings. (Basically, I looked into the fridge and pantry to see what we had on hand and dumped it into the crockpot.) It made a nice large batch of chicken chili which was…

Gluten Free Strawberry Cake

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #171 For Father’s Day, I wanted to surprise D with lots of yummy food and a delicious cake. Unfortunately, he didn’t get any delicious food from me as I was under the weather. I could barely be around food, but I was not going to let the day go by without making something for him. 😉 I wanted to use some of the fresh strawberries from our Saturday pick-up from Bountiful Baskets, so I decided to go with a strawberry cake. I totally winged this one, so all measurements are approximate. I started with a Betty Crocker…

Homemade Chips

Project 365 – #165 Every now and then, it’s fun to make your own potato chips. I’m fortunate to have an electric food slicer which makes slicing the potatoes rather quick, but you can also slice them on a grater or mandolin. I like to drop them in our deep fryer, but you can also bake them in the oven, if preferred. Last night, I served them with some homemade turkey burgers. I put cheese in Munchkin’s burger. For D and I, I put cheese and green chile pepper sauce. Yum! You can also make your own veggies chips by…

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Fudge Brownies

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #164 We received some gluten free mixes from Betty Crocker as part of the Gluten Freely Bakers Challenge that a wrote about last month, so I decided to doctor up one of the brownie mixes. With the gluten free Betty Crocker brownie mix, you need to up the butter to between 3/4 cup and 1 cup if you want a nice fudgie brownie. (The recipe on the box calls for 1/2 cup.) Other than that, make the mix as directed and put in greased pan. Next, plop little dollops of peanut butter all over the brownie mixture. …

Tasty Chicken Fajitas

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #162 I love the aroma of peppers and onions cooking in a cast iron skillet. Add in the sizzle of perfectly seasoned chicken breast… Soon I hear a call from the living room, “Something smells really good!” Mmm… While I love the ease of my confetti fajitas done in either the oven or crockpot, nothing can really beat fajitas cooked in a cast iron skillet. The flavor is completely different. Start with some freshly diced peppers and onions. I like to use multiple colors of peppers just because it looks nice. I happened to have both yellow…
