Meals on the go- Stuffed Tortillas I

(This is part of my “Meals-on-the-go” series.) This morning I awoke to the delicious smell of beans cooking. I had sprouted beans a few days ago and last night put them in my crock pot and then went to sleep. Today I made tortillas, stuffed and rolled up like an eggroll. This is the perfect […]

Keeping Vegetables Fresh

A few weeks ago I bought some corn on the cob. Before I had a chance to prepare it, the corn was already spoiled. As someone who is very careful with her money (and an over eater as well), nothing (ok, maybe a few things) aggravates me more than food spoiling before it can be […]

Showcase Sunday- My Living Room/Dining Room

I decided to hop on the bandwagon of the other bloggers showing off their homes. Though I can’t invite y’all to my house because of privacy reasons, I do enjoy visitors and showing people my home. From now on Sundays will be Showcase Sunday in  which I clean up my house very well and show […]

Marinated cucumber salad

(This is part of the “No, wait! Don’t throw that out yet” series.) I posted a recipe not too long ago for making pickles out of cucumbers that have gone soft. That recipe uses lacto-fermentation and tastes quite delicious. For people who must avoid salt for whatever reason or have a bit more of a […]

Babies- how cute!

My husband’s dream would be to live on a farm and raise animals. As living on one is not in budget right now, we’ve tried to make our little apartment and tiny yard reminiscent of a farm to satiates my husband’s appetite for animals and crops. At the start of the summer we bought two […]

Vegan tortillas

I like tortillas. They are a versatile food and improve many a frugal meal. Tortillas are great stuffed with leftovers and baked or fried. They also make great tacos or quesadilas. Tortillas paired with a bean meal are a complete protein, delicious and the start of most Mexican dishes. Buying tortillas is not so frugal […]
