Mushroom Soup

I created this little soup recipe today. And it is awesome!

Somehow I did not publish the recipe eairlier today so here I go again.

Recipe is : 1 pkg mushrooms washed and chopped

3 large garlic cloves minced.

3 Tablespoons butter.

Put all this into a medium pot on the stove and stir fry for 4 minutes on low to medium heat. Add 2 cups of milk.

Add salt, pepper and accent to your taste. Whisk in 2 to 3 Tablespoons of cornstarch or a little more if needed. Make sure you are whisking constantly so that you do not make lumpy soup. Continue to cook for 4 minutes more.

Yummy. https://www.wisdomforpennies.com

Mango Ice Cream

Wow is all I can say!

Here is my recipe that I have been promising you from last week. All I can say is WOW! It is to die for!

Recipe Ingredients are: 3 mangos peeled and scraped from the seed.

1/2 can of sweetened condensed milk. 2 tsp. lemon juice pinch of salt

Put this in a food proccessor or a blender or even a mixing bowl. And mix until smooth. Then put in a freezer container with a closed lid and freeze for a day.

Now you do have to take this out and let it set out on the counter for 30 minutes before you can scoop it out, all nice and pretty like! Next time I may reblend it after it has been froze for a day, to see if it is more scoopable. Love too all. https://www.wisdomforpennies.com

PS That,s my little baby food processor in the photo so I did this in two batches. Anything works so it,s your turn now.

Corn Bread and Mustard Greens

As I like to talk about canning things to all of you, I thought about this enjoyable meal. So I made this in 30 minutes time, from jar to stove to plate. Are you ready for this?

Cooked while canned, mustard greens from 2018.

Well you need something to go with this and this is my personal favorite to pair up with some good old mustard greens.

Hot steamy cornbread.
Forgive the butter, please! I just can’t resist it on hot steamy cornbread.



Ok now for the recipe: Just open pint jars of mustard greens or your choice of greens, and heat up with a package of ham Goya seasoning in them.

I am not trying to start a Goya war here It’s just that I have always used Goya for many years now and can not live without the awesome taste that it flavors vegetables with.
One of my seasoning that I do enjoy.

Cornbread recipe: 2 1/2 c. of corn meal 1/2 cup flour (self rising)

1/4 c. sugar 2 eggs 1 Tablespoon of bacon grease (also grease pan with some too).

1 Tablespoon of baking powder (This makes it rise more fluffy).

About an 8 oz. glass of buttermilk

You can add either lemon juice or vinegar to milk to make buttermilk, just 2 Tablespoons is all you need.

Stir all this up while your oven is preheating on 400 degrees and bake from 20 to 30 minutes to get the cornbread as brown as you want it to be. #cornbread #mustardgreens #recipes

July 2020 Preppers

Make your own absorbers

This is for the preppers out there. You know who you are, the ones that believe in storing food. I believe even 10 years would do for the times that we are in today! I have decided that I am not happy with this procedure using steel wool so I am making changes to use the cat litter ,absorbent crystals, method instead.

You use the new type of unscented, mini crystals. These absorb all moisture and has no smell. I just use an envelope and put 6 tbsp. in it, Then I seal the envelope and fill a food-grade bucket with wheat berries and then place on the top of the berries and seal the bucket.

I did try an experiment that used a small amount of crystals in a cup. I then poured a small amount of water over the crystals and it dried up all the water. I did this twice and had the same result. Then I added three times the water to the same mix and it took some days, but I had the same good result. No water.

For a baggie of food just use paper to make a tiny envelope and put 1 tbsp. of the cat litter in it and staple, it shut. I learned this off of the internet as I was searching, so, no I have not lost my mind. On the steel wool idea, I felt that shaving might have worked their way into the stored food. So I changed this. I am so very sorry to have misled anyone.

And you want to make sure that it stays safe and editable after all that food prepping work that you had to go through and after spending a lot of money on your supplies, you could use a price break.

Well, here it is! You already know that you could be using mylar bags or not and then you still need the oxygen absorbers to put in each bag or bucket and they can cost a pretty penny.

On the mylar bags, the 5 -gallon ones look pretty nice for big families and the 2-gallon ones look pretty nice for only myself as I am only one to be calling myself a prepper so I will use the 2-gallon bags. I have decided not to use the mylar bags as I have waited a long time for them to come in the mail and they sent me the 4×6 sized bags instead of the 2- gallon sized ones that I ordered. I have wasted enough time waiting already.

This is what they sent me! I guess I could stock bubble gum in them. Twenty of these useless, and too tiny little bags. Ugg. I am not happy.

I can just see getting 15 lbs of wheat berries in there and 25 lbs of dried corn also. So I will use my homemade absorbers and a hand-full of bay leaves also in each 5-gallon bucket that I make up.

I am sorry if you already knew this! I am trying to help the others that do not know.

I would be thankful for small donations to my site and they are very welcomed by me, and would help me to prep more If I have helped you, please consider helping me out with small things.

I am not a professional prepper or teacher on food storage, but I have canned-dehydrated-frozen-gardened and prepared foods from scratch, all of my life, and these things work for me. I did find the cat litter remedy on https://www.PREAPSTEADERS.com so I give this beautiful awesome lady the credit for this tip.
