I am honored to have my post featured today at StrongChurch.org. I’d love for you to head over there and read it. Here’s a snippet:

… And by all means, we don’t want to embarrass ourselves by sharing what we are truly struggling with. That might get too personal. It might reveal something ugly. No, we’d best keep our issues to ourselves.

That’s why our conversations in the church foyer often sound like this, “How are you?” “Fine, how are you?” “Fine.” We call it fellowship, even though I often have a more meaningful conversation with the bagger at the grocery store. (“Paper or plastic?”) ….

Breakfast Crock Pot Casserole

by 25 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

Every once in a while I think to myself, “Surely someday I will run out of recipes and ideas to share on my website.” But after blogging for almost six years, I have decided that no – the ideas will never run out. Why? Because when food meets internet {splat} – recipes, tips, ideas, and suggestions are never ending. I learn something new, I share it with you. You learn something new, you share it with me. As we all ask questions, learn from others, see new ideas, remember timeless ideas, or come across an idea quite by accident – and we share it with each other via this awesome tool called the internet – our healthy eating journey together continues on a fun and delicious path.

Case in point:  On my own, I would never have thought to make a breakfast casserole in my crock pot. I freeze my Easy Breakfast Casserole and for an easy breakfast to bake in the morning. But this crock pot idea is even better, because we can roll right out of bed and eat a hot, hearty meal within minutes.

A big thanks goes to Karli who sent me this idea. We’re lovin’ it! (So much that I named this recipe after you, and included it in my free Healthy Breakfast Made Simple eBook.)

Karli’s Breakfast Crock Pot CasseroleYum

1 pound turkey sausage
6 cups hashbrowns
1 green pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup milk
12 eggs

Brown turkey sausage. Butter the inside of a slow cooker, then stir in cooked sausage, hashbrowns, pepper, onions, and cheese. Whisk together milk and eggs, then pour mixture over the top of the contents in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low overnight – about 10 or 12 hours. Serves 8-10.

Crock_Pot_Casserole

I thought it was funny that the sausage didn’t show up on the plate. It’s in there, I promise. :)

This recipe is very versatile – mix and match any veggies, meats, or cheeses that your family likes or that you have available.

How is the Getting Ahead for Breakfast Challenge coming for you?  I love that there are so many ways to get ahead for breakfast, and not all of them involve putting food in the freezer. This crock pot casserole is a great example. As is the Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packet recipe and the Dark Chocolate Almond Granola recipe. And the Homemade Grape Nuts Cereal. And the Freezing Muffin Batter idea. Oh wait. That one does involve the freezer. I guess I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to bring it up again.

I also wanted to mention that I’ve had great feedback from people taking the Let’s Do This! Getting Ahead in Your Real Food Kitchen eCourse. Families are finding new ways to get ahead in the kitchen, saving time, saving money, and becoming healthier. I LOVE it!

Dark Chocolate Almond Granola Recipe {Real Food Dollar Menu}

by 48 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

Ever paid over $6 for a tiny box of cereal, and then witnessed that the contents in the tiny box only fed three people one small serving? As delicious and convenient as the box of Dark Chocolate Almond Granola was from Cascadian Farm – that is one pricey breakfast.

I actually got a box of this cereal with some Vitacost credit I had – just to try it. It was a huge hit in our family. That’s what made me decide that surely I could figure out a similar recipe and make my own. Besides, I like the idea of eating chocolate for breakfast. What a way to start the day. :)

The result of my experimenting turned out delicious! I did a little rough math to determine how much money I saved. These aren’t the cheapest of ingredients, but they are hearty and can stick to the ribs. I found that I cut the cost from over $2 per serving to around 75¢ per serving – even using mostly organic ingredients.

What I love best is that this is a recipe that can be made ahead of time for a quick meal or snack. (It’s a perfect recipe to work into your Getting Ahead in the Kitchen routine.)

Gratituesday: The Grammy Jammies

by 19 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

We’ve started experiencing some fall weather around here, which has had our boys digging in boxes and drawers for long-sleeved PJs to sleep in. Malachi appeared one evening in my very favorite pair of all of his jammies, and shucks if I didn’t immediately have to drop everything I was doing and squeeze the life out of him for several minutes.

What’s so special about this pair of pajamas? Well first of all, I think we can agree that kids in pajamas are about the snuggliest and cutest around. So any pair of PJs on my kids makes my heart flop. But it just so happens that this particular pair of jammies was worn by all four of our boys. All of them.  Asa got them as a gift when he was about five years old. He wore them for a couple of years, then when he outgrew them, they became Justus’. Then Elias inherited them. Now Malachi is wearing them.

Let’s all pause a moment and recognize with amazement that such a well made article of clothing exists, and that it has survived in our house through eleven years and four boys without being torn, stained, lost, hung on a flag pole, used as a sling shot, or stretched across the hallway to create a catapult. Indeed, for an entire decade, we have somehow kept track of both the top and the bottom of this matching set of sleepwear, and the elastic is not stretched to the size of Santa. If only we could pass down tennis shoes in this way. Shoot, I’d even settle for a pair of shoes that last through one season and one boy without the sole flopping off or the toe poking through or the foot growing by three sizes in one afternoon. But anyway…

Malachi was thrilled to hear that what he was wearing had been worn by all of his brothers, even the one who is now well over six feet tall. All of the boys chimed in with “oh yeah, I remember those pajamas.” We all inhaled deeply, joined hands, and enjoyed a moment together as we gazed at each other with tears in our eyes. By that I mean that the pajama conversation lasted about four seconds because the boys quickly moved on with life by sticking their heads in the fridge to find something else to eat before bed.

But I wasn’t quite ready to let it rest. “Asa,” I asked, “Do you remember who gave you those?”

He hesitated, because as I said, he had already moved on to thinking about his cheese stick and the pajama conversation was so thirty seconds ago. But then he remembered. “Oh yeah. It was Grammy wasn’t it?”

Indeed. My mom had picked those out for her firstborn grandson. She had no idea at the time that the pajamas would make their way through four growing and busy boys. And we had no idea how special they would become someday – worn so many years later by the grandson who never had the privilege of meeting her.

Who knew a simple pair of pajamas would be such a treasure?

breakfast_e-book cover_sm

Yum

I’ve decided that we can never have too many quick and healthy breakfast recipes. I love recipes that can be made ahead of time (or thrown together quickly), and my family really appreciates a variety. I shared the Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets recipe a few days ago, which is the recipe that inspired the idea for this eBook several weeks ago. I thought it would be nice to have the instant oatmeal recipe in a handy printable, then as I began putting it together, an entire eBook evolved. It’s not a fancy eBook, but who needs fancy? We just need simple, right? A Healthy Breakfast Made Simple. :)

This eBook, Healthy Breakfast Made Simple, has ten healthy breakfast recipes for you, many of which can be prepared ahead of time. Here’s what you’ll find in this eBook:

Menu Plan for the Week (With Make-Ahead Breakfast Ideas)

by 6 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

How’s everyone doing so far with the Getting Ahead for Breakfast Challenge? Our family has been eating a lot of Instant Oatmeal Packets recently, so I’m going to have to make more soon. Which leads me to my next statement:  We do not always follow our menu plans exactly.  (I’ve shared this before, but felt it was worth sharing again.)

I begin the week with the best of intentions. I create a menu based on what I feel will work best for each day of the week. But real life and ideal menu don’t always never jive perfectly – so I roll with it. That’s why having Make-Ahead Meals prepped and ready to grab is so important to me in this season of life.

Since we’re focusing on getting ahead for breakfast this week, I decided that each breakfast item on my menu would include foods that have been or can be made ahead of time. If I can at least get breakfast put on the table quickly and easily, I find that the rest of my day goes more smoothly.

Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets (without the microwave)

by 48 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

A breakfast of oatmeal is fast, easy, nourishing, and filling. Making a pot of it on the stovetop is not hard. So why make Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets? Are they really that much of a time saver?

oatmeal_packet_10

For my family – yes. I’m working to get my boys more independent in the kitchen. Having a variety of homemade instant oatmeal packets around for them to grab and fix themselves is a great time saver for me. Plus, it’s nice to have a variety of choices for them so that they can make whichever kind sounds good to them. These are great afternoon snacks too!

Inspired by MoneySavingMom to make Homemade Instant Oatmeal packets, I did a little research to discover the easiest and healthiest way to do this. Here are the tricks I learned through my experimenting:

  • Sucanat works just fine in place of sugar
  • Combining a big batch of the instant oatmeal mixture in a big bowl, then scooping out individual sized portions makes this process very easy
  • Blending a portion of the oats in a blender first to create a powder will help the instant oatmeal packets cook faster
  • A microwave is not necessary to cook this – simply boil water, stir in packet, walk away, then come back and eat
  • The add-in options are endless

Instant_Oatmeal_Packets

It took about 20 minutes to mix this and prepare the packets. Not bad for 24 quick breakfasts or snacks!

Author:
Ingredients
  • 10 cups rolled oats (divided)
  • 2 cups sucanat
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
Instructions
  1. Measure 7 cups of oats into a large mixing bowl. Blend the remaining 3 cups (1/2 cup at a time) until powdery and stir into the mixing bowl. Add sucanat and sea salt. Mix well.
  2. Measure ½ cup of mix into a small zip baggie, making about 24 Instant Oatmeal Packets.
  3. Be sure to scoop the mix from the bottom of the bowl as the sucanat tries to separate and settle there.
  4. Store in a dry, cool place.
  5. If you'd prefer not to scoop the mix into individual baggies, simply place the entire mix in a large, airtight container, scooping out ½ cup of mix for each serving.
  6. When ready to serve the oatmeal, empty contents of baggie into a cereal-sized bowl.
  7. Add ¾ cup boiling water.
  8. Stir.
  9. Allow the oatmeal and water to sit for about 5 minutes.
  10. Stir and eat.

Skip the Packets!

Want to make this even easier? Since originally coming up with this idea, I switched to simply making the Instant Oatmeal and keeping it in big jars. My kids scoop out 1/2 cup of mix, add 3/4 hot water, and they are good to go!

Instant Oatmeal in a Jar

Instant Oatmeal Varieties

By sprinkling in various fruits, spices, chocolate chips, or nuts – you can create many different types of instant oatmeal packets! I fill my bags with the basic mix, then sprinkle in various add-ins so as to have a variety of packages available for my family to pick from. Here are a few ideas:

Chocolate Swirl

Add a few mini chocolate chips

Blueberries and Cream

Add freeze dried blueberries, then cook oatmeal with milk instead of water

Strawberries and Cream

Add freeze dried strawberries, then cook oatmeal with milk instead of water

Cinnamon Raisin

Add 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and a few raisins

Apples and Cinnamon

Add 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and a few dehydrated apple chunks

Banana Nut

Add a few crushed walnuts and some freeze dried bananas

The blender does a great job chopping up the whole oats.
Remember, just do about 1/2 cup at a time to make the process work better.
oameal_packets (1)

Mix the blended oats (3 cups) with the remaining oats (7 cups),
then stir in the sucanat and sea salt. See how easy this is?

oameal_packets (3)

Scoop 1/2 cup of mix into small zip baggies. Add any add-ins you wish. Seal and store.

To Prepare:  Pour contents of baggie into a cereal bowl.

oameal_packets (4)

Add 3/4 cup boiling water. Stir. Let it sit for 5 minutes.

oameal_packets (5)

After 5 minutes, stir again, then eat!

Having these homemade instant oatmeal packets has been so helpful. They are much cheaper than buying pre-made oatmeal packets – plus I can be sure we are only including the ingredients we feel good about eating.

Let’s Do This! Join the Getting Ahead {Breakfast} Challenge

by 39 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

It’s a great time of year to get a little more organized in the kitchen so that you can stay ahead of your busy schedule. That’s why we created the Let’s Do This! Getting Ahead in Your Real Food Kitchen eCourse and the {Healthy} Make-Ahead Meals and Snacks eBook. Hopefully you’ve grabbed yours already and have started working your way through them. If not, you can do that here.

Whether you’re taking the course or not, I hope you’ll all join me in this Getting Ahead Challenge! We can all benefit from working ahead in our kitchens!

During the next four weeks, we’ll be offering four different challenges so that together, we can take steps to get ahead. I’ll be sharing more getting-ahead tips, new recipes, plus some freebies to help us all in our efforts. My goal with these challenges is to put you to work in the kitchen so that you can see how easy and beneficial it is to get food made ahead of time.

Who’s with me?! Let’s Do This!

350x350_Challenge

Our first challenge is all about Getting Ahead for Breakfast.

Why are we starting with a breakfast challenge? Because that’s the meal I struggle with most as I try to get ahead in my kitchen. Dinnertime casseroles in the freezer? No problem. Burritos in the freezer for a quick lunch? Done. But breakfast? I often forget that there are so many make-ahead breakfast options. Therefore I rarely remember to put these items on my make-ahead-to-do-list. (Except for freezing muffin batter. I’ve been obsessed with that recently, as you know. But man can not live by muffins alone.)

strawberry_muffins_2

As much as I appreciate being ahead and having dinner time foods prepped and ready, I think I need healthy breakfast foods prepared and accessible even more. We need to get our day started quickly and smoothly. We need a full, hearty breakfast. We need to not have to think straight the minute we roll out of bed with fuzzy brain, crazy hair, and a long to-do list for the day ahead – am I right?

Therefore, for the past few weeks, I’ve been focusing on creating new recipes and coming up with new ideas for ways to get ahead for breakfast. I am so excited to share all I’ve been learning! You’ll be glad to know that not all methods of getting ahead involve filling the freezer. And they definitely don’t involve spending a lot of extra time working in the kitchen. (The eCourse already taught you that though, right?!)

Now through next Thursday, make plans to join me in getting ahead with breakfast foods. What’s involved in this challenge? Simply pick one (or more!) breakfast foods that you can prepare ahead of time – and get it done! Here are some suggested ideas:

french_toast_casserole_3

There are lots of great ways to get ahead for breakfast! (Here are all of the Healthy Breakfast Recipes on this site.)  You aren’t limited to the suggestions above. Do whatever you can to make healthy breakfasts easier at your house. Be watching for more recipes and ideas in the coming days. I can’t wait to share!

Are you joining this challenge? Leave a comment on this post letting me know that you’re taking part.

So let’s hear it!  What are you going to make to get ahead for breakfast?

Getting Ahead in the Kitchen When You Don’t Want To Heat Up the House

by 11 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

I love seeing how many are grabbing the Let’s Do This! Getting Ahead in Your Real Food Kitchen eCourse and {Healthy} Make Ahead Meals and Snacks eBook. It is especially great to hear how some of you are already using the techniques described in the eCourse and the recipes in the eBook to get ahead. As one person commented this morning, “Because of your course, I now already have dinner made for tonight! That’s a first for me!” Awesome. :)  It’s so exciting to me to see how many of you are saving yourselves so much time and energy in your kitchen!

Today, I wanted to share an additional tip that has helped me to get ahead this week. It’s been hot at our house the past several days – too hot to bake. In fact, I’ve hardly even wanted to cook anything on the stovetop because even that heats up the kitchen on hot days. But I still found myself with about thirty minutes of time yesterday that I could work ahead in the kitchen.

So what did I do? I mixed up items that could be frozen raw and baked later. It was the perfect solution to getting ahead without heating up the kitchen!

Here’s what I made:

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (a necessity, right?)

freezer_cooking_sept_2

To freeze cookie dough, simply mix up the batter and scoop it out onto a cookie sheet. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer until the cookie dough is frozen. Transfer the frozen dough to a well-labeled ziplock bag. Store in the freezer for up to two months. To bake the cookies, place the frozen balls of dough onto a baking sheet, two inches apart. Bake as directed, adding a few minutes extra baking time.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffin Batter

freezer_cooking_sept_1

Here are the details you’ll want to read to learn about freezing muffin batter. On a chilly morning someday soon, I can use these frozen muffin balls to make fresh muffins without any effort!

freezer_cooking_sept_3

Quick Mix Biscuits

freezer_cooking_sept_4

Don’t like the hassle of rolling out and cutting out biscuits at breakfast or dinner time? Me neither (even though it really isn’t hard). I mixed up a double batch of biscuits, rolled them, cut them, and froze them on a cookie sheet. Once they were frozen, I transferred them to a freezer bag. To bake frozen biscuits:  Place desired number of biscuits on a baking sheet to thaw for 30 minutes to one hour before baking.  Bake as directed.

Other ideas of ways to get ahead when it’s too hot to cook/bake:

What else have you done to get ahead in your kitchen that doesn’t require using a stove or oven?

How has it been going for you as you’ve been
working through the eCourse and trying new recipes from the eBook?

Gratituesday: The College Class

by 27 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

Our oldest son is taking his first college class.

asaWe’ve homeschooled Asa since he began kindergarten (yesterday). We decided that now that he is a junior in high school, helping him get a few college credits under his belt while giving him some classroom experience would be ideal for him. The classes he takes at the college while he’s a high school student will serve as dual credit classes (meeting requirements for both high school and college). Sweet! Plus, as a high school student, he receives a healthy discount on one class per semester at our local college. Saving money, knocking out a few classes, starting college in two years with several credits already out of the way? It’s all good.

I really didn’t give it much thought at first. We filled out all the paperwork to get him enrolled. Sure, it was weird helping him fill out a college application already (he’s 16) – but we had a plan and we were ready to execute. He was ready. Application accepted, class chosen, necessary information obtained. He was to be at his Basic Speech class on the York College campus on Tuesday, August 24 at 8:30 am.

It wasn’t until I dropped him off the first day and saw him walking across campus – the very campus I walked across during my four years of college, the campus where I met Matt, the campus that holds so many dear memories – that I forgot how to breathe. When did he get so tall-smart-handsome-mature-grown up? Overnight, I promise.

It’s a great feeling, knowing that he’s able to handle a college level course. So far, he’s rockin’ this class. He’s off to a great start! :)
