Food Storage Recipe - Shepherds Pie

 

 This is actually easy to make and taste so good. I have used ground beef, diced steak, and even a can of Keystone Ground Beef. This recipe is pretty versatile. I have even added green beans to it. I cook this all in an oven safe pan.

 NEED:

Ground beef

Can of corn, drained

Carrot , diced

Onion, diced

Beef Stock

Salt & Pepper 

Mashed Potatoes - Sometimes I make them or just use a single pack of the instant mashed potatoes.

Cook up the ground beef with the onion and carrots. Drain.

Add the beef stock and a 1/4 cup of water.

Cook up till thicken.

Add the can of corn. 

Top with the mashed potatoes and put in and oven that was preheated to 375. 

Cook until the top is slightly browned. 

You can top with cheese also. 

 

DIY Cup Of Coffee Sugar Scrub

 

Cup of Coffee Sugar Scrub

1/4 cup fresh coffee grounds

3 tablespoons white sugar

2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tablespoon olive oil/or almond oil/or coconut oil

1 tablespoon water

(ALL RELATIVELY CHEAP STUFF EASILY FOUND IN THE KITCHEN! YAY!)

Simply mix all of these ingredients together in a mixing bowl, then add to small jar. This scrub certainly goes a long way. Not to mention, the application doesn't require much. This makes a great gift.

I would recommend applying this coffee scrub while in the shower, as it is very messy. Scrub in circular motions all over your body. You can apply it to your face as well, but be a little more stringent with use if your face tends to be on the more oily side, naturally. Let the scrub sit on your skin for five minutes and then rinse off. Fair warning: you will be left incredibly, beautifully soft. Also, you will smell lightly of coffee, which is pretty fantastic. Who doesn't love the smell of coffee?!

Sautéed potatoes and fresh green beans with smoked sausage

 

I used baby red potatoes for this, but you can use whatever kind you have on hand.

 

You can use fresh green beans, but sometimes I use a large can of green beans or a couple of cans that I drain very well. 

 Cheap and simple!

 

I brown the sausage then added a little bit oil or bacon grease till it got hot then I add the potatoes 

and green beans with seasoning.

 

Use whatever seasonings that you like.  

 Let it cook on a medium/high till you hear the veggies frying.

 

 Flip it a few times then turn on low, cover, and let simmer till the veggies are tender.
