Homemade Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies
Shake your finished batch in powdered sugar/stevia so individual gummies wont stick together while they are stored.
Lamb Roast with Garlic and Rosemary
Since boneless leg of lamb is kinda costly, this recipe would work very well with boneless pork loin.
Chinese Chicken Wings
Try adding 1 Tbsp Chinese Five Spice Powder to the marinade. It will take this recipe from 10 to 20!
Buko-Pandan Cake
What can I use as a substitute for pandan juice? I have absolutely no idea where to get pandan leaves in St. Louis, Missouri.
Make Boxed Cake Taste Homemade
You might want to add 1 tsp of rum, bourbon or some flavorful liqueur to your mix as well.
Affordable Family Christmas
We do Secret Santa every year. Since my kids are now grown and have good jobs (Thank you, Lord!) we raised the limit to $100 this year. Whoopee! More for the grandkids!
Super Easy Beer Bread
Beer bread got me through the first weeks of the pandemic when yeast was impossible to find! You can use any beer or ale to make it. You can enrich it with an egg. You can spice it up with herbs. You can add ground nuts. You can sweeten it with Splenda or maple...
Pork Steak and Rice (Slow Cooker)
Pork loin is NOT pork steak. Pork steak, at least in STLMO, is sliced pork butt. It is usually very inexpensive, sometimes even $0.99/lb. Ask your butcher.
Scrapple
Instead of pork sausage, I use 12 oz. of headcheese or souse to make scrapple. Just cube it and add to the cornmeal mush. Youll only dirty one pot.
Keeping Track When Flipping Your Mattress
Flipping is not recommended if you have a memory foam mattress.
Use Pewter to Defrost Meats
DO NOT USE PEWTER!! It leaches lead into your food. Using a non-stick skillet or baking pan will accomplish the same trick.
Doll Plastic Bag Holder
I just use empty tissue cartons to store bags. When the cartons get full, I donate them to local food pantries.
