Homemade Corn Schnitzel Recipe — Gluten Free, Vegan, Frugal, and Delicious
I am not quite sure why, but locally, there is this food dubbed “corn schnitzel”. No, its not chicken or meat mixed with corn and made into schnitzel. In fact, it doesn’t have any protein in it, but many people eat it as a protein substitute in vegetarian meals, since it is meat free. I […]
Homemade Iced Chocolate or Iced Mocha Slushy Recipe, Vegan Option
Its been getting hotter lately here and my kids wanted to have a nice cool treat. My son, Lee, had brought up that he loved iced coffee, something that a neighbor of his dad’s used to make him. So I made him iced coffee, not just iced coffee, but an icey coffee slushy, but then […]
Easy and Delicious Romanesco Broccoli Recipe- Vegan, Paleo, Gluten Free, Allergy Friendly
Have you ever heard of romanesco broccoli? It’s one of the weirdest but also one of the most beautiful (in my opinion) vegetables available out there. I had heard of it and seen pictures of it but never bought it since I didn’t see any available, but recently I was given a few heads for […]
Pasta con Finocchietto Selvatico Recipe, Pasta with Wild Fennel Fronds and Homemade Sausage, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, and Frugal
My back yard, though I’d planned to take care of it and turn it into a pretty little something, was overgrown by what most of the world knows as weeds. As a forager, I know these plants are mostly edible and delicious, and I made sure to use the mallow overtaking most of my yard […]
Easy and Delicious Chicken Sosaties Recipe- Afrikaans Skewered Meat Dish, South African and Namibian Shish Kebabs, Without Apricots
My friend Izel is from Namibia, a country that I really wasn’t familiar with at all, but soon learned that it used to be part of South Africa, called South West Africa, until its independence. Its filled with similar types of people that live in South Africa, with a lot of Afrikaaners, and the Namibian […]
Sukjunamul Guk, Kongnamul Guk, Korean Bean Sprout Soup Recipe- Easy, Allergy Friendly, and Delicious
You know what the problem with frugal recipes are? Different things cost different amounts in different places, so what might be a super frugal recipe for someone might not be so frugal. This recipe is one example of one that is practically free for me, but for someone else may be more expensive. But either […]
Easy Frugal Vegan Homemade Bagels Recipe
I’ll be honest, while I’ve known how to make homemade bread pretty much since forever, most of the time my kids would prefer store bought bread to homemade, and even if they’ll eat homemade bread, they don’t want it when its no longer fresh, unless its made into french toast. Recently, though, I made bagels, […]
Easy Fruity Iced Tea Recipe, Tastes Like Fruit Punch, Extremely Frugal
Something I noticed is that when I stay home, I often don’t remember to drink, and even though I don’t exert myself tremendously, I end up dehydrated by the end of the day. For that reason, among others, I decided to start having tasty drinks available at home, and you know me, that means made […]
Easy Cheap Vegan Candied Popcorn and Popcorn Balls Recipe
“Mommy, did you make caramel popcorn?” my kids asked me. No, this isn’t caramel, caramel has dairy in it, specifically butter, and this has none of that. There is another popcorn based dessert similar to this called kettle corn, but there are big differences between that and this- namely the proportions of oil and sugar, […]
Easy Fish Free, Gluten Free Beef Pho Recipe — Delicious Vietnamese Noodle Soup, Allergy Friendly
I was cleaning out my freezer (yay, spring cleaning!) and I had a bunch of beef broth in it. Part of that beef broth, to be honest, was something that I intentionally made to be able to cook Asian food with it, many recipes I never got around to yet, but I still needed to […]
