Food Storage Recipe - Chicken Carbonara

Just got done eating a plate of this. It was so yummy. I seriously do not know what is the matter with my camera now, though. Now the darn flash goes off anytime I take a photo, even when there is plenty of sunshine coming in the open back door! So my photos lately are looking simply horrible. But, please , take my word for it - THIS WAS YUMMY!

Chicken Carbonara

8 ozs of uncooked spaghetti - I used Angel Hair - it cooks a lot quicker.

1 cup of frozen baby sweet peas

3 slices of bacon

2 cups of the Keystone All Natural Canned Chicken

1 jar of Alfredo sauce

In a saucepan cook the spaghetti as directed. Add the frozen peas at about the last 2-3 minutes of cook time with the spaghetti. Drain it all and put it back into the saucepan. While that was cooking you should have fried up the bacon to really crispy, but not burned. Crumble it up when it is done. Stir the sauce, bacon, and chicken into the pasta and pea mixture. Cook over a low heat until it is heated through! About 5 minutes. Serve it with parmasean cheese grated over it. Serve this with a salad and some garlic bread. Great little meal that is very filling and yummy.

Food Storage Recipe - Beef & Broccoli

My hubby said that this is not really a food storage recipe. But , it is a frugal one. The pictures are horrible though. LOL

I buy meat at our local grocery when they have meat sales or manager specials is what they are called. They mark the meat down A LOT!! I get these little mock steaks , usually 5.00 or more a pack for 1.50! A lot of people think because the meat is marked down it is not good. That is wrong. It is good. Take it right home and freeze it. Our grocery also marks down their fresh baked items too. Just keep an eye out for markdowns. You can save a ton of money that way.

This is one of the easiest recipes. I take a pack of those mock steaks, I think that is what they are called , not sure why. I put them in a pan with some soy sauce and a bit of water. Let them "slow cook" covered until I can cut them into strips. Add 1 bag of frozen chopped broccoli, onion, and green pepper. This time I actually had an onion. But, I had to use my dehydrated green pepper dices. Let this all cook until the onion is just turning clear. Serve over rice. That is it. Add more soy sauce to your taste and that is it. YUMMY!!!!!!

Food Storage Recipe - Skillet Macaroni And Tvp Beef Recipe

Skillet Macaroni And Tvp Beef Vegan) Recipe - Food.com - 440505

Great looking recipe. I also went to a local indoor flea market yesterday and got a great cookbook that is full of ground beef recipes. I was thinking that it would be conceivable to just easily turn that into TVP recipes. Not use ground beef. Use my "ground beef" TVP , taco tvp, etc. Have to try some of them and see how it goes.

Homeschooling! ( and Advice needed, PLEASE)

We go tomorrow night to our local Homeschool Academy! Going to find out cost and classes, etc. Little man is only a kindergartner , but I want him to go somewhere with like-minded kids and parents that will teach a bit extra. Right now I am looking at the learning to read and the math games. That way too he wil lget some social skills. It will only be 1 morning a week though. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Any advice?? I just don't know if it will be worth it. It seems kind of expensive, if you ask me. She quoted me on the phone about 176.00 just for the math class. I know I can just do it at home for free, but how will he get the social skills? I have 2 grandkids that come over just about every single weekend and they are 4 and 6. He does really good with them. Has a bit of a problem with sharing, but I think a lot of only kids are like that. I know that I was. I don't know. UGH what to do, what to do!

A MUCH NEEDED VACATION!!

Hubby has finally gotten in enough time at work to be able to take a much needed vacation. Going to take advantage of it and have some work done on his teeth and get our house ready to paint. Staying home this vacation. Just not enough money to warretn driving somewhere to do something. There is really not anything that we would want to do anyway. I do have planned to take the little man out this week, while it is much cooler, to teach him how to fly a kite. He got 2 of them in a pack at the dollar store!! TRY to teach him is more like it. Might have to get hubby out there to do it before his dental work on Wednesday. Anyway , we will have a great relaxing week and then back to the truck driving. fun fun fun
