Menu Plan Monday- Feb 18

February 18, 2008     Keeper of the Home

Hello again! I’m still puttering away with my restrictive diet… two weeks down, minimum of 6 more to go! Each week I am stretched to find tasty, interesting, healthy and still frugal meals that we can all enjoy. I’m finding that being really purposeful to make yummy dinners (and therefore, having great lunches through leftovers) …

Lentil Vegetable Pottage Recipe

Lentil Vegetable Pottage

February 16, 2008     Keeper of the Home

Well, I’m nearing the end of week 2 of the diet (although the first week was a bit gradual- this week I tried not to cheat at all). So far, so good. I’ve had a few moments where I just looked at the fridge and sighed. But overall, I’ve been able to find enough to …

One of my favorite bloggers, Kimi of Womanly Pursuits, has recently launched an exciting new blog that I wanted to share with you all!

Sweet Potato Fries Recipe

February 10, 2008     Keeper of the Home

Many of you have kindly asked how my diet is going. This past week, I have been transitioning into the diet, so although I have tried to eat as strictly as possible, I have made some exceptions to allow for food that was in the house, my previous meal plan, etc. Starting tomorrow (Monday, that …

This recipe was passed on to me a few months ago by one of my dear friends, who also loves reading and loves learning about better health and nutrition (we get along well!). It was in my Meal Plan this week, and we enjoyed it yesterday, so I thought I would pass it on! Piled-high …

Happy Monday, all! Well, tomorrow (I’m posting this on Sunday night) I officially start my new diet. I’m allowing myself a few days of grace as I use up some stuff that I have on hand, since I just found out my diet details on Friday, but over the course of the week I will …

Homemade Soup Broth: An Essential Element in Any Healthy, Frugal Kitchen

January 31, 2008     Keeper of the Home

Image by joyosity Ever wonder why fokelore has always included chicken soup as a remedy for the common cold? And why your Grandma’s tastes just so good (so much better than any canned or dry variety ever could)? The secret is in the broth. Rich, delicious, nourishing homemade soup stock. Why is chicken soup superior …

Raising healthy eaters- What to feed baby

January 29, 2008     Keeper of the Home

In my post last week, I discussed the importance of ensuring that your baby is truly ready, waiting longer than the typical age promoted by most doctors and books, and focusing on breastmilk as the foundation for baby’s nutrition. So now that you’ve determined that your sweet baby is ready to eat some solid foods, …

Menu Plan Monday- Jan. 28

January 28, 2008     Keeper of the Home

I wanted to finish this last night, before bed (which was already past 10), but my wise husband told me to leave it and go to bed and do it in the morning. I was so tired all weekend (the result of a couple late nights and a baby that’s still getting me up), and …

Papas Chorreadas (Creamy Potatoes) Recipe

January 20, 2008     Keeper of the Home

With all of the extra food that I bought and made last week, between the deals on organic dairy and some extra seasonal produce that I bought, I decided not to go shopping this week, but instead work on using up everything that I have on hand. Every once in a while, I find this …

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

January 20, 2008     Keeper of the Home

This recipe is different than your usual muffin recipe. As with all of the recipes I made this week, it requires soaking your grains overnight. The reason for doing this is that it breaks down the phytates in the grains, which makes them much more digestible and the nutrients much more readily absorbed. For more …

Good morning, all! I got this up a little later than usual, as I just couldn’t finish it by a decent time last night. Ryan and I are trying hard to be more disciplined in going to bed early, and I needed his encouragment to leave this post, finished or not, and just go to …

Amazing Greek Salad Recipe

Amazing Greek Salad Recipe

January 6, 2008     Keeper of the Home

This is the ultimate Greek salad that I could practically live on (especially while pregnant). I made this recipe because I disliked Greek salads in restaurants that had such big chunks of veggies that you could never fit more than one piece in your mouth at a time. I love all the flavors mixed together! …

Menu Plan Monday- Dec.17

December 16, 2007     Keeper of the Home

My challenge for creating a meal plan this week was that we are going out of town next weekend, for a whole week. Because I absolutely hate to waste any food if I can avoid it, my meal plan needed to use up the fresh produce still in my fridge. Plus, I didn’t want to …

Smoothie of the Morning- Carob Delight

Smoothie of the Morning- Carob Delight

December 11, 2007     Keeper of the Home

This is one of our favorite evening treat smoothies, but occasionally we use it as a morning smoothie, just because it’s so yummy! It’s very creamy, and tastes like a carob milkshake. If you’ve never tried (or heard of) carob, it is the pod of a tree, that has a sweet, somewhat chocolaty flavor to …

Menu Plan Monday- Dec.10

December 10, 2007     Keeper of the Home

I’m feeling uninspired this week. Perhaps it’s that I’m doing this at 12:40am, or that I know my kitchen counters are full of dirty dishes. Whatever the reason, sometimes meal planning is just hard work. I suppose that what makes it hard at times is that I don’t want to just be conventional in my …
