Food Storage Recipe - Black-Eyed Peas Skillet Dinner

This is my hubbies favorite! He thinks that it is something that takes me all day to cook.

NEED:

1 pound of ground beef

1 chopped medium onion

1 chopped medium green pepper

2 cans ( 16 oz each ) of Black Eyed Peas, drain them well

1 can of diced tomatoes with the liquid, do not drain, 16 oz

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of pepper

Cook of the ground beef, onion, and green pepper. Cook it until the beef is brown and then drain the fat off of it very well.

Add the peas, tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring this to a boil and then drop to a simmer. Let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring it often.

Getting Ready For Winter

By now everyone has probably seen the Farmer's Almanac prediction for this upcoming winter. For us, in Indiana, it is supposed to be like last winter if not worse. So we are getting winter ready sooner. 
Hubby bought a freezer for us to fill up for one thing. Last winter our drive was frozen and I couldn't move our car for about a month. So, hubby wanted that filled up for winter. We have someone coming sometime this week with a load of gravel to redo our driveway. That should help a lot! Pretty sure that is why it was hard to get out of the drive last winter. No gravel for traction and the snow just froze solid on our hill.
We have started sealing the bottom of the house with plastic. We got the back of the house done yesterday and around the back deck. It doesn't look the best , but if it keeps the floor from being so cold that will help a lot. I have extra plastic to do our windows and back door with, but I will wait another month or so to do those. It has been so nice last week that I want to be able to open windows.
 We also re-potted all of our flowers and trees. I found out the painful way that lemon trees have horrible thorns!


WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING TO GET WINTER READY????

The Homesteading Guidebook - A Beginners Guide to Self Sufficient Living (Self Sustained Living)

The Homesteading Guidebook - A Beginners Guide to Self Sufficient Living (Self Sustained Living) was a free book for the kindle when this post was written.

By going back to our roots as producers, each household member learns the value of commodities like food, water, shelter and clothing. This in turn allows them to appreciate more what they have and conserve the same. The bottom line is, homesteading allows you to appreciate what you have and take care of our surroundings. I hope that this leads to a more responsible and environmentally conscious generation.
