January 16- food prep and a new way to eat leftovers


Hello everyone 
I wrote up a menu sheet for meals we have ingredients for.  It will cover at least 2 weeks and meals are listed in no particular order. 
I will cross off each main meal as we eat it.  



I did a little food prep for the week ahead 


From left to right 
Fresh strawberries in red Jello
1 Chopped red onion 
A sweet potato and white potato to roast with supper tonight 
4 diced yellow onions 
5 peeled oranges 
2 pounds of peeled and sliced carrots (sliced by the Presto Salad Shooter) 

My son said he learned this method on Instagram and they have been using their leftovers to make yummy panini sandwiches.  
You start with a large tortilla like the kind for sandwich wraps, and cut one slash in it just to the center 
Then add whatever leftovers or fillings in each fourth
   

Now fold each quarter in until it’s folded into a quarter 




Then heat it in a Panini machine (I’m sure a griddle or skillet would work too, you’d just need to flip it to cook both sides)

You end up with a fancy restaurant type sandwich.  




I think these are a wonderful idea- and a thrifty way to use up leftovers,  even tiny amounts.  And if your fixing multiple sandwiches,  it would be easy to make them different to please each eater.  

Hope you’re all having a good weekend

January 14- not much

I’m not really feeling like blogging right now.
I’m seeing so much fact checking and censorship going on in media,  I’m losing my desire to read or visit any kind of media.  
That being said,  I don’t plan to shut down this little blog without announcing in advance.   But it is a possibility 

Here are a few homemaking things I’ve been up to 



This weeks to do list above - before anything was done 



A little food prep- I peeled a bunch of oranges that had been hanging out in the crisper drawer 
My husband ate them all in 3 sittings.  


A funny from my daughter 
And no, she is not really selling them for any price.  Her family will really enjoy them.  

That’s it for now
