Bacon Potato Hash:

Bacon Potato Hash:
Shall we start the day off with some potato hash? Yeah I kinda thought so. Let’s face it. Any recipe can achieve greatness by adding bacon. Am I right or what? Add bacon to plain old mac & cheese… and it’s not so plain anymore! That’s exactly what I did with my recipe for potato hash. Oh how I love it so! Here are the goods. My {almost 10-year-old} taught me that cute word-that’s-not-really-a-word. She got the same reaction from me when she told me to “chillax”. Okay-dokie, so I started by frying up some bacon, please do it in a 10 inch cast iron or stainless steel skillet for ultimate browning! After the bacon has cooked, pour off all but 2 tablespoons or so of the bacon fat, then remove off the heat. Peel the potato and then carefully slice the potatoes in half. Place the potato halves into a large pot filled with room temperature water. Bring to a boil, then reduce and simmer for about 10 minutes. So I started with the shallot; peel, halve, slice and dice up two large shallots. Cheers!

san francisco garlic fries Well folks, not much going on this week. I’m still 800 million degrees, which I guess is normal if you’re a human incubator. I’ve become a stretchy, elastic waisted pants spokesperson, because ohmygah maternity jeans are the most incredible thing I have ever worn, excepting for the sweat pants I model almost daily. Easy Beef Stew Every once in a while I get a craving for one of those dishes my mom use to make, like this beef stew. I don’t make it that often. I don’t know why, maybe because it’s so simple, so predictable, so plain. But don’t we all need that once in a while, a simple, old-fashioned, no fuss kind of supper?

Preserving Cilantro...In April? A couple things before I jump in today... First of all, I have absolutely LOVED reading your answers to the questions I asked on Friday. I love it that some of you are growing some gray hairs like me, that many of you would choose tomatoes (my first choice as well) and that Little House on the Prairie and The Cosby Show look to be your top favorites- they're mine, too! If you haven't read through the comments, go on and do so- they're great. Secondly, I want to mention that I am still plugging away memorizing a new verse every two weeks thanks to the prompting of Beth Moore.

Cinnamon Roll Cake & My Shiny Life - StumbleUpon You all know that I love breakfast foods. Maybe it’s because I don’t really cook breakfast that often. My husband sometimes cooks breakfast stuff on the weekends. We usually just eat cereal in the morning. The other night we had French toast with Portuguese sausage for dinner. Pizza Stuffed Pretzels As a stay at home mom, I tend to eat whatever I can find for lunch. The only exception is when I have friends over for lunch dates. Normally, I'll have lunch already prepared before my friends arrived but that wasn't the case the other day. My friend Suzanne came over recently and I had nothing really ready. After a peek in my fridge and pantry, I whipped up these Pizza Stuffed Pretzels while Suzanne and I chatted away in the kitchen. 5 seasonal recipes for winter Interested in uplifting stories on the natural world, sustainable communities, simple food, and new thinking on how to live well?
