Project 365 – #137 As you can see from some of my recent posts (Apple Cinnamon Muffins and Frozen Banana Treats), I love to be able to use up any leftover food that we have. I hate to see food go to waste. For me, throwing away food is basically throwing away money. That’s not to say that it doesn’t happen, but I try my best to make sure that I either use the food up or toss it in the freezer before it goes bad. It’s pretty cool how many foods can be tossed in the freezer to extend…

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #136 We have some apples around the house that are a little too ripe for just eating, but they’re perfectly fine for baking. I decided to make some gluten free apple cinnamon muffins with those apples. I just used some of Pamela’s baking mix as the base and added some cinnamon, diced apples, and a splash of almond extract to the muffin recipe on the bag. I wanted something easy and delicious. Munchkin and D were both thrilled with the treat of muffins. I must admit that they did taste very good with a little bit of…

Prep Ahead Meal Plan: Chicken

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #134 Have you ever uttered a phrase similar to this: “I bought all of this great food, but we ended up eating out all week due to life”. I think it’s fairly safe to say that most people have had this happen to them at least once. You go grocery shopping and pick up all of this fabulous food. You’ve got wonderful plans for all of the beautiful, healthy meals for the week. Then life happens and you end up eating take out or junk food. Your meal plan goes out the window because there isn’t enough…

The Epic Cream Sauce Failure

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #133 Okay, so that’s a slight exaggeration, but it was a time consuming failure. Let me step back in time for a moment… This evening, I decided that I’d make some Mexican chicken with a lovely cream sauce served with peas. I put the cast iron skillet on the burner to get it nice and hot as I wanted a nice sear on the chicken. As I waited for the pan to heat up, I started dicing onions and green peppers. The boneless, skinless chicken breasts sizzled as I placed them into the hot skillet. I turned…

Tacos Supreme

Project 365 – #132 Yes, I’ve been writing a good bit about food lately, but I’ve been rather tired and food is a constant in our life. **wink** On days when I have headaches, like today, I like to go with simple meals. One of our easy go-to meals is nachos. Since we had lots of veggies on hand, I decided to load up the nachos with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and green peppers. They were very tasty, and both Munchkin and D enjoyed their meals. I was happy because I was able to provide a good meal with minimal work…
