Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
Happy Sunday! Recipes! There were over 200,000 Instant Pots sold on Amazon on Prime Day. I have been posting about it since I received mine this winter and thought I would compile. Use these recipes as guides. The shredded chicken can be used with BBQ sauce, salsa or just plain to freeze for …
Book Review: My latest book review is for Michael Symon’s 5 in 5. This is the updated version of his 2013 book of the same name. The premise of the book is that you can make appetizers, main courses or dessert from just 5 main ingredients and cook in 5 minutes! Yes! FIVE minutes! …
My kids have a thing for Sloppy Joes. I have a thing for super easy mixes that are all ready to go in my pantry! I ran out of my Wildtree Sloppy Joe Mix and tried to make my own. This is pretty close. I try to keep my pantry pretty simple, and we …
Craft: Here is a photo of what I was working on last week. After some trial and error with vinyl and fonts, I found a way to make these coasters for my cousin’s wedding. Recipe: I made this recipe with the previous post, “Mexican Cauliflower Rice”. It is really simple, fast and delicious! It is …
Book: I started reading “All the Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr. It is one of those books on Amazon with 5000 reviews. Scratch that – it now has over 8,000 reviews with almost 5 stars! Recipe: This recipe is a healthier version of beef stew from America’s Test Kitchen. Adding a lot of …
The snow and football mean chili season. We often used deer meat and/or ground beef in our chili. I am including this with a picture of my dad. He died from a heart attack last Saturday after getting his deer. Daddy raised five girls (yes, five), worked for Schnucks Supermarkets for over 43 years and …
Books I’ve read: Since the move, I really haven’t had the time to read many books. I did just finish “Wonder” by RJ Palacio. It has nearly 4,000 five star reviews and with good reason. The characters are great, the plot is moving and the message is one that every adult and child should hear. …
The high temperature today was 12 and the low was -1. The normal temperature would be a high of 43! It is so cold I can only think of warm soup and roasted sweet potatoes to make all day, so that is what I did! I have two yummy soups to show you and they …
Well, I made this BEFORE it hit 81 degrees here in St. Louis in the middle of November. The recipe could also be altered to throw into the slow cooker – throw it all in the pot except for the cornstarch and leave it on low all day (just add the cornstarch later). I love …
As I mentioned before, I purchased the America’s Test Kitchen Best 30 Minute Recipe book because I found them easy, fast and tasty. The recipes really can be made in 30 minutes unlike a lot of other books that claim to be made in 30 minutes and it takes me more like an hour. I’m …
