Raspberry Jam

Oh- Its August and kids go back to school. And you know there was a really great sell on Raspberries. I bought a case and used 1/2 of them for some Jam. Just the regular recipe on the Pectin. Nice new jars (lids are polished nickel now how sweet)
I was surprised that I got 9 jars out of the batch.

Roasting Red Peppers

I went to a cooking class and one of the extra things she did was Roast a Red Pepper on a gas stove. Turn it and let it turn black. Top to Bottom and place in a brown paper bag to cool down and eat it later. My husband thought that was crazy but he ate it along with my daughter. Sure quite a few of us missed out on this dish.

Homemade Turkey Sausage

Turkey Sausage

2 1/2 lbs. Turkey Breast
1/8-1/4 cup chopped Garlic
1-3 tsp. Chili Powder
2 Tbs. Paprika
1/8-1 tsp. Cayenne
1 tsp. ground Cumin
2 tsp. Salt
pinch 1/2 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper
1 tsp. dried Oregano
1 tsp. dried Thyme
1 tsp. freshly Ground Black Peper
2 tsp. onion powder

Dice Turkey into long strips. In a small mixing bowl combine all seasoning together. Mix well. Toss Turkey in and cover well. Cover and refridgerate 24 hours or put in freezer for a short while to chill it. Get out a meat grinder. Form into patties. Fry them up.

Can I say these are very good. My children loved them. These would be great for breakfast with toast and eggs. Also great in Lasagna

Turkey Mini Burgers

Ok, This was good. When children eat things up that is a good sign that they like it.
How quick and easy these are to make too.

Turkey Mini Burgers

Buy one package of soft rolls from the bakery (8 count)
You will need:
1 pkg. 1 lb. ground turkey
2 green onions diced
Mix together and form patties about a large scoop dropper did the trick.
Next fry them in a pan & top with cheese to melt. so cut a regular slice of cheddar cheese into four servings.
Cut rolls and spread one side with mayo (I love best foods) top with a lettuce leaf, put turkey burger ontop and place a pickle slice on top and a small cherry tomato so it pops open.

Easy Spinach Pasta

1 package of Spinach leaves
1 ripe on the vine cherry tomatoes cut in half
1 small package of mozzerella cheese cut into cubes.
about 1/2 package of penne pasta cooked and cooled.
Mix together and serve. (Note there is no dressing but if you like dressing
go ahead and use some.)

Incredible Spreadable Butter!

I always like buying the spreadable butters and margarines but go through them way too fast. Well, I came across this and it works well.
So-You need to try this...

Incredible Spreadable Butter

1 stick salted butter (just out of the fridge works)
1/3 cup canola oil

Use an electric mixer- whip the butter on high til its fluffed up.
Slowly add oil. Add while mixer in on medium. Scrape down sides. Put
mixture in container allow to chill. Overnight is best!

Dig in- whipping & adding canola oil to your butter produces more butter for
the buck and butter that is lower in saturated fat.

Mommy & her little girl

She may be a fashion designer when she grows up. And she loves the color purple. Anything I get her that is purple is a big delight to her. And she loves bubble gum icecream its the best. Absolutely, adore her and yes she is growing up too fast. She loves to take pictures with my phone.(Alot of Max)So while were waiting for her bus to come I asked her if I could take our picture to put on my blog. Oh yes! She was delighted.
