Shucking Corn

Posted in Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #243 On Saturday, we picked up our Bountiful Baskets order which included a nice large box of corn.  We’ve enjoyed some of the fresh corn, but today, it was time to get it all shucked, boiled, and frozen to enjoy at a later date.  I had forgotten how much I really don’t care for shucking that many ears of corn at once.  There is a reason that we all had to do it as kids.  It’s because the adults didn’t really want to do it.  **wink**  It’s worth it though because we ended up with lots of…

Crockpot “Roast” Chicken

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #227 Crockpot “Roast” Chicken is a super easy, quick meal that takes very little thought or preparation.  I literally take the whole chicken out of the freezer and put it in the crockpot around lunch time.  I season it generously with whatever seasoning I feel like using.  (I used Emeril’s seasoning blend for this chicken.)  To have the frozen chicken ready by dinner, I put the crockpot on medium or high.  If you want a crispy skin, you can place the cooked bird in the oven for 20-30 minutes prior to serving.  The chicken will fall right…

Family Mexican Night

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #211 It’s always nice to have an easy theme night.  Around our house, Mexican food is a favorite.  Plus, it’s an easy meal to put together.  Often, I’ll just make up all of the fixings, and everyone just creates the meal that they want that evening.  The meals may include: nachos, tacos, fajitas, quesadillas, taco salads…  I serve it up with some yummy fresh salsa and chips for a fun family Mexican night that everyone enjoys.

Hearty Breakfast

Project 365 – #189 Yet another hearty breakfast for my Marine.  He loves to start his day with a solid breakfast.  It doesn’t always happen, but it’s definitely what he prefers.  Me?  I’d be happy with a muffin or breakfast bar.  😉  Munchkin likes a wide assortment of items for breakfast – as long as mommy gets them for her.  lol! Sorry I’m so late in posting today.  It’s been a long day of working on the computer and blog.  I have a love – hate relationship with technology….

Gluten Free Cheese Bread

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #183 I’ve seen these called Brazilian Cheese Puffs, but I made ours a little differently than the traditional cheese puffs.  These are naturally gluten free due to the ingredients.  I love how quick and easy these are to make. You literally just toss the ingredients in the blender, blend, pour, and bake.  Simple, easy, delicious.  These little bites are packed with flavor. After my sister had these at a restaurant, she called me to see if I could come up with a recipe that would work.  I hunted here and there for different recipes.  In the end,…
