Grandpa Omelet


Mix well in a bowl (my husbands choices):

6-8 eggs
chopped ham
bacon bits
finely chopped onion
chopped bell pepper
ample amounts of seasonings
Tablespoon of water or soy milk
Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat. Once hot, pour entire egg mixture into the skillet and let cook almost through, checking the bottom to make sure it is not getting too dark. If it is, turn down the heat and use the lid to cook through. Using 1-2 spatulas, flip half the cooked omelet over to fold in half. Continue cooking through until completed as you prefer. Serve and eat hot. Optional: cover in rice or soy cheese.

White Rolls and Cinnamon Rolls - Bread Machine Dough cycle

I always have assumed that the best white rolls have dairy ingredients, but I tried this recipe for Easter ( I made them into resurrection rolls with a marshmallow in the center) and they turned out delicious. My husband and I both agreed that they would make great cinnamon rolls, so I tried it today and was not disappointed.  My favorite part is that the dough is made in the bread machine. That way, the prep time/active time is cut down, which is a winner for my life. Here are my two new recipes for White Rolls and Cinnamon Rolls. White Dinner Rolls (bread machine – dough cycle) Place ingredients into bread machine pan: 1 cup water 2 Tbsp margarine 1 egg 3 ¼ cups unbleached all purpose flour ¼ cup white sugar 1 tsp salt 3 tsp active dry yeast After dough is done (1.5 hours), pour out of the bread pan and onto clean surface. Divide into rolls and place into greased (coconut oil) pan. Brush tops of rolls with coconut oil (optional).  Let rise in ...

Scalloped Potatoes with Variations

I have always enjoyed scalloped potatoes, especially when they are loaded with creamy goodness. I found a recipe online and I adjusted it to fit with what I had and to be dairy-free. This recipe turned out great when I first made it in the oven so I tried it another day in the crockpot and I loved that method even more. It is now a family favorite. There are many variations and the ingredient addition options are open to your creativity. I took these photos with my phone, so they are lacking much, but hopefully still give an idea of what this dish looks like.  Since the crockpot version is my favorite, that is what I will share the recipe for.  Place in a large crockpot: approx. 2 Tbsp olive oil 3 chicken breasts (or 6 thighs) 4 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 white onion, diced In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients for sauce: 1/2 cup flour (or substitute cornstarch for gluten free) 4 tsp chicken bullion (or replace all water with chicken...

Tofu?

I've never had a desire or an opportunity thrown at me to purchase or try tofu. In the recent months, my nutrition side of my brain has been active and I've been making more sound food choices at the grocery store. I would love to say that I've dived right in without any looking back at the processed sugars and "bad-list" foods available, but I do feel good about the steps I've taken and slowly my family will come along with me. I have significantly reduced our intake of meat for two main reasons: to help me stay within my grocery budget and I don't feel like our bodies need to eat meat regularly. Meal planning is much more of a challenge (a fun one) without a meat as the center of each meal. I have been pleased with some of the meals I have created though and my joy is full when I hear my husband say something like, "I'm actually enjoying this!" Although I could do without the "actually" in there.  Last week, I cooked with...
