Steamed Fresh

Now that the warm weather is here and the fruits and veggies are plentiful, I love to eat a little lighter... And oh how I love mushrooms and squash :) YUMMY!!

Soul Food

This recipe has all the elements of home style comfort and soul. Try it and you'll make it an instant family favorite just as I did. I found a base recipe online somewhere but made it my own. Here's what you need:

1 package all natural cheese filled tortellini
1 jar Alfredo sauce
Fresh mushrooms diced (however many you like)
Fresh bundle asparagus
Rotisserie chicken breast (your discretion)
1/4 cup shredded cheese

I cook everything and chop it up small except for the tortellini. (I cook that but don't chop it :)). I add it all into a big bowl and stir together until it looks like pure yumminess. Then I transport it into an 8x8 lightly greased baking dish and top with italian breadcrumbs. I bake it at 350 for 10 minutes and top with fresh avocado... Then I devour it until I go into an amazing food coma and promise myself I'll run 5 miles tomorrow lol... Good luck with the latter. ;) and enjoy!! Xo

Homemade bread in 20 mins + bake time

Looky what I made tonight.... I looked through some recipes and decided on my own version. My husband was teaching us how to make butter out of whipping cream so I decided we needed some homemade bread to go along with. This is what I did:
• Roughly 6 cups of flour
• Tsp of salt
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup of sugar or honey
• 1/2 cup oil ( I used veg)
• 1 pack active yeast
• 2 cups of hot water
Mix sugar or honey, yeast, oil and water. Let sit for 5-10 mins. Add in eggs, then dry ingredients. Let rest for 15 and then knead for 5. Bake at 350 until golden brown and serve it up plain or with the topping of your choice :). Now I'm going into a bread coma, haha, try this and let me know what you think :) xo
