Cilantro and Roasted Onion Sweet Potato Hash

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

When I received a bottle of Cilantro and Roasted Onion Olive Oil as a member of the Devo Diva team, I knew that I wanted to use it to make a sweet and savory sweet potato hash. I had two beautiful organic sweet potatoes sitting on the counter just waiting to be used. I also had some lovely organic bell peppers and sweet onions to add to the mix. Since I needed a quick meal that night, I decided to turn the sweet potato hash into Mexican sweet potato bowls and topped the hash with cheese, red sauce, and some…

Establishing a New Routine

Posted in Family, Homemaking, and Homeschooling

We’re still getting settled into the new place even though we’ve been here a little over a month now. I was on track to have the house completely unpacked and organized on record pace until we started volunteering at the horse rescue. You see, we were immediately drawn into helping there as there is so much that needs to be done. Both Munchkin and I really enjoy our time there even though it is hard work. Because of this, we’re still trying to find a good schedule that works for us. Right now, we’re working/volunteering at the ranch between 4…

Gluten Free Pumpkin Nut Muffins

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

For some reason, I was craving something pumpkin yesterday, so I decided to make some pumpkin muffins. Knowing that muffins make a quick and easy on-the-go breakfast, I went ahead and made a double batch, so I could freeze some for later. I like to freeze them individually, so we can just grab a muffin or two as needed. I thought it would be nice to try to make a healthier version of an old favorite. Of course, it would have worked a little better if I would have realized that I didn’t have any eggs. lol! I made them…

Omelet Muffins

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

Now that we’re heading over to the ranch in the morning on most days of the week, I find that we need something fast and easy for breakfast. Muffins are always a favorite, so I decided to make a twist on traditional muffins. The result was an omelet muffin that could be made ahead and stored in the fridge for approximately 3 days. The omelet muffins can be easily personalized for different tastes and/or food allergies. It’s also a good way to use up extra veggies and/or meat that’s in the fridge. This really is a throw together, use what…

Embracing the Local Markets

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

It’s hard to believe that we’ve been here for almost 2 weeks now. I admit that I was feeling rather frustrated at the lack of organic produce available in the area until a kind Walmart employee pointed me in the direction of a local produce market. I headed over there on Thursday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised. The place didn’t look like much from the outside, but the produce was beautiful. While many things were not certified organic, they were all raised in an organic/clean/pesticide-free manner. As I walked around looking at everything, I was treated to some delicious samples…
