***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out new videos every week! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

When bacon grease was “bad for you” I continued to use it, but I hid that fact from everyone. Now that it’s good for you again, I’m out in the open.
Do like I do…. Call it “Southern Magic” and they’ll never know…
😂
My mom always had a tin of bacon grease on the stove.
@@christineshaw183 We got a new stainless steel cat food bowl.
So, your out of the closet now? Lol
Breakfast means "break fast" since you have been fasting all night, so the first meal you eat each is breakfast! Therefore, the only meal you can not skip is breakfast! Even if you dont eat it until 8:00 p.m., it's still breakfast!
You are soooo brave to crack each egg into the same bowl. I always crack insto a small bowl then I put into the main bowl. That way if there is any issue with a single egg it does not ruin the whole batch
We do this too. Had a bad one mess up whole mix before.
Me too
I guess those are fresh eggs, I used to do the single cracking apart when I bought eggs from the store, not anymore!😊
Me too
Hope those littles like onions and bell peppers
We eat “breakfast” for dinner ALL the time. We love breakfast food! We don’t have chickens, but our neighbor does and she shares her bounty. We are blessed ❤🍳🥓
We call that having brinner😂
As an 80-year-old woman I am truly impressed with these meals. I will have to give these three recipes a try only in a smaller batch I thoroughly enjoy your podcast and have tried many of your ideas with great success. Keep up the good work and God bless
We sometimes eat eggs and bacon on toast for dinner. I find it odd people think eggs are just for breakfast 😊 I sometimes have porridge for dinner if I can not be bothered cooking. This is mostly if hubby and kids are away as of course they wouldn't be happy with cereal for dinner. Super kind of you to help out the family from church. 🌸🐨🌸
Yes. We call it Breakfast for dinner night. We love it. Usually when I haven’t planned for dinner.
Bob Evans has made billions selling eggs for dinner!
I eat eggs for dinner on a frequent basis. They are quick and easy.
I'm not sure what it is, but watching you two makes me happy. Thanks.
I wash my egg shells, let dry ,put in small blender and put in compost pile.
Thanks for watching!
Ditto. I enjoy you two very much.
@@opalezell2166 I detect a worm farmer! 😀
@@LivingTraditionsHomestead You can cook scrambled eggs on a deep cookie sheet pan in the oven. I do that when I'm cooking for a crowd..😊
I’m sure that family is so grateful for your help! I’m currently in hospital after my hysterectomy and I’m grateful for everyone’s support for my family while they are home
From experience, when you get home, even though you think you have recovered enough to vacuum just for a second or do the dishes......DON'T ! I did it against my doctor's directions, even though I thought I had rested enough for a week, and within a few minutes I was in dire pain! God bless you and may you heal swiftly.
Please allow yourself to rest and heal.
Rowland and Katey, I was playing touch football with friends before my recovery time was up! oops! oh dear!
And, first laugh after surgery? yow!
Hope healing goes well, Katey!
@@GinaKayLandis @Rowland1948 @jeanettefilder1616, thankyou for your kind words. I'm 4 weeks post op now and feeling really good but still resting. I am a Primary (elementary) school teacher and on my feet all day so I need to be careful.
The Lord blesses us so we can bless others!!! Whether we have much or little, we are stewards of what God has gifted us with! Great inspiration in today's video! Thanks!
Great ideas! A lady from church has been bringing LOTS of eggs to share and with 2 of us we just can't use them all. She said to enjoy the surplus now because when the weather heats up to 90 degree days she won't get near as many eggs. This way we can have meals on hand when the eggs run low. THIS is why I watch homesteading videos on YT.
You can also freeze eggs and water glass them for future use.
You two are a real blessing doing all the food , for a Mom to get rest. Wonderful, enjoyed the video. Thank you !
We really need more people like you both in this world.
Yes we do!!
How kind of you and your church to make meals for the family in need. Church and communities can help each other so much. Awesome grease pot from your mother in law. Hope the inlaws are doing good.❤
I have an old fashioned egg beater that would make fast work of a bowl of eggs. 2 beaters that are turned with a hand crank.
Been cooking with bacon grease since I started cooking @ 12 years old back in 1970. Never once strained it. The "bits" add character & texture! 😊
I also am able to make gravy with the bits mixed in the bacon grease. The bits make all the difference in the gravy.
@@user-of2vx9xo6u Do you mean sausage gravy? Or just milk gravy with no meat? Cause when I make sausage gravy, I use the grease from cooking the sausage.
Yes! I still have my mom's old fashioned egg beater (she would be 105) that I use every so often.
Edward, I was about 8 when you were born. As a young child, I remember standing on "my box" to use the "Beater"! At 72 I still love to cook. I still have the old Beater too! Thank you for the Memories!
GOD bless 😊
@@ritamccartt-kordon283 I love to cook, too. I'm a long distance truck driver & don't get the chance to cook on the road much anymore. But I cook sometimes when I get home. 🙂
I make a casserole. In a 9X12 place. Put canned drained green chili's (I canned anaheim peppers) put jack cheese on chili's, cover with beaten dozen eggs place grated cheese in cheddar on top. Bake at 350 about 45 minutes. Tastes like chili rellenos but easier.
I dice my bacon up before I cook it on medium with a lid. I stir it a few times during cooking. It saves me a lot of time.
I always cut my bacon in half because it fits better on sandwiches…BLTs are my favorite.
I do that also.
That was wonderful teamwork you two! I really enjoyed watching you both so happily help your family and church members. Bravo!
Wow how nice of your community to come together for this family in need.
Eggcellent Ideas!!
We have 100 eggs waiting for something to be done with them...
I give lots away to friends and church family!
And breakfast for dinner is a real thing!
Sarah, I wish you two were my neighbors. My neighbor is mean and has caused us so much undue stress that we are going to move from our home of almost 30 years. We could really use some extra prayers from your wonderful community of friends. God bless you and please keep your videos coming.
Oh please don’t leave your home. Stand your ground document and take him to court plus Facebook all his antics.
Prayers for you and this difficult situation. I almost made the same decision with a previous, similar situation, but I didn't, and I was glad I stayed. I did not want my move to be bittersweet. Strength to you, and may God change the meanie's heart!
What a great gift from Kevin’s mom!
Breakfast means BREAK FAST first meal after not eating from the night before. So what ever time you break your fast eggs are perfect!!
You guys work wonderfully 💕 together..these recipes were amazing..I'm going to make all of these for my family...thank you for sharing....
Beautiful way to use your eggs. I am sure the other family is going to appreciate your loving and generous gift! ~Sharon from Florida
Eggs are one of the BEST food you can eat...! Perfect meals to make for your BUSY SCHEDULES...! And...it is SO KIND of you both to be making meals for a family in your church...! God Bless You BOTH...! ❤👍🐔❤ Shelly
You two working together is like a well oiled machine.
We are egg poor and
we only have 9 layers.
Thanks for the easy peasy egg ideas.
Breakfast for dinner is one of our family’s favorite meals!
I was in the hospital and had an abundance of eggs. I finally got someone to take them. I usually have 1.5 doz chicken eggs and 1 doz duck eggs. I'm so glad to see this. I can now make these for my daughter and I. ❤
There is nothing wrong with breakfast for supper. We do it a lot!!!
Wow - Hollar Homesteads up to their coop in eggs too
I just watched a video from them. They pickled a bunch and made egg salad. Another channel I have started watching with a Farm Family of former Old Order Mennonites in NE Iowa (Homesteading with the Zimmermans) made a ton of egg noodles. There is so much one can do with eggs. Awesome your helping that church family.
Love the Hollars
Love the Zimmermans!
Sarah, I too use a splatter screen to fry bacon etc. However, I noticed it still splattered some. So now, I place a paper towel on TOP of the screen while cooking & that helps stop any excess splattering. Hope this helps. GOD Bless you both. I so enjoy y'all taking us around your homestead while you go about your daily jobs & telling us about them! Excited to watch the raised gardens grow!! ❤😊
I used to make those egg muffins years ago for my children and I because of our busy schedules, but then stopped. Seeing your video this morning, I paused it when you were making those beautiful egg meals and made nine muffins with some left over bacon for quick and easy access on my carnivore diet. I used three eggs in each muffin. In fact they are baking as I type; it's 6:05 am ! I eat one meal a day so I will probably eat one or maybe two egg muffins with a steak at noon. Thanks again for quick and easy meal prep ideas. Great show; love your ideas and how to's.
Awesome video Kevin & Sarah! Kevin a tip: when scraping anything off your cutting board, use the back of your knife. It will save the blades sharpness! God bless and many prayers for you and your family 💙 Have a Blessed ☦️ Holy Week 🙏🏻 & Easter. 💕 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻
WE USE A RUBBER SPATULA TO GET ALL THE EGGS OUT OF THE BOWL. THANKS FOR THE QUICK MEAL IDEAS. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
I love baking my bacon in the oven. Line a cookie sheet with foil, lay out bacon strips, cook on 400 until done. My bacon is thick so it takes about 25 minutes. I sometimes flip halfway through to get them cooked evenly. You can throw the sausage in too and it’ll all be done about the same time.
I do the same!
I enjoy baking the bacon in the oven too! My only difference is I use parchment paper. Aluminum foil leaches the metal that interrupts our thyroid. Not saying parchment is perfect, either, i prefer to not use foil in that way. But again, bacon in the oven is super easy and less stovetop mess 😅
I've never thought of doing freezer meals with my over abundance of eggs. I'm definitely doing this this year!
I wrap my burritos in parchment paper. I find they heat up better and you could heat them in microwave or oven.. I lay out the strips of parchment paper, tortilla on top then add ingredients and roll.
I have made the omelets in jumbo muffin tins, because I add small diced potatoes, to make a fried hash with the sausage and veggies. They take about 45 minutes to bake and 1 is a meal. So quick and satisfying. If you like more hash, count on 1 1/2 eggs per cup. If you like more egg, use 2 eggs per cup. I also put the cheese on the hash, then the egg over the top.
Sounds yummy!
We just made 30 each breakfast burritos, and corissant sandwiches. And 44 single serving quish with ham cheese and bacon. Freezer wrapped to heat in microwave. Donated 10 of each to the homeless, handed them out, didnt give to homeless shelter, because tgere are so many not close enough to shelters to go for neals. Most were vets
You two are such a great team!
Making me sooo nervous cracking all those eggs into that bowl . Even fresh farm eggs can be bad for some reason. So glad no bad eggs!!!!!!!😊
Sara, you motivated me to get an immersion blender. I haven't used it a lot but I love how it scrambles eggs and whips cream so FAST! Our church feeds the homeless in a near city, 3 days a week. Some of my extra eggs get boiled and given out to be eaten on the days the soup kitchen is closed. We are told that true religion, blessed by God, is to feed the hungry take and care of the orphans and widows.
I never thought I needed an immersion blender but got one to make soap. It makes soap making a breeze. Have found it comes in handy for other things too.
That last dish take tater tots and mold them 4-5 into bottom and sides of cupcake mold then fill delicious, then bake
Thanks so much for this. Perfect timing because I'm due any time now with baby #7, plus I have a ton of eggs. Freezer meals using a ton of eggs is exactly what i needed
Congratulation. Those freezer meals will definitely help you out. Best wishes!
Sarah, I LOVE your smile!!! It's like getting a hug from you!!! 🥰🤗
I USE A COFFEE FILTER INTO THE TRAY BEFORE POURING THE GREASE INTO THE POT.
Great idea!!
Two points from me. #1, For those who don't have/want a dedicated bacon grease pot, I do the same thing with a wire strainer, coffee filter and mason jar. #2, I know you no longer eat bread but lately I've really been enjoying the quick breakfast sandwiches I make using Kevin's English muffin tutorial, and pretty much what you did here w/ the burritos. (sometimes I fry the eggs, sometimes scrambled, I rotate through pork patties, links and bacon and a slice of cheese) I keep these in the freezer, thaw one overnight and reheat in the toaster oven. So quick in the morning and delicious.
Thank you for these ideals
When our son was in cross country running in high school (he's a senior at university now) I often made the burrito wraps similar to yours for the team when there was a Meet or camp or summer run (field trip). We had one young lady who could not have dairy, so we also made a different batch specifically for her. Yes, these are wonderful for kids (and adults).
Whenever you break a fast is breakfast time 😄😄😄
Here in Australia we would call your egg muffins, mini quiches. What a good job done with all those eggs! ❤
Thank you. I want to make up some of these meals to freeze, and try them out on the family. Even if only one or two people like them, it would be worth making and freezing these. Microwaveable freezer meals are always welcome, and if they are homemade, where we control the ingredients, so much the better!
You can put wet paper towels under your cutting board and it wont slide around. Great thing to do for other people. more people need to do this.
I’m from Mississippi and bacon fat plays a big part in my cooking….if gives great flavor. I call it, “Southern Magic”. I call it that because so many mistakenly think that pig fat is detrimental to their health and freak out if they know they’re eating it. I had a cook out and one of my guests was raving about my potato salad. I told her that I always used Southern Magic in my potato salad. I got a call from her one day …she was in the grocery store, searching for the fabled Southern Magic. I asked her where she was and she told me she was in the spice section. I laughed and directed her to the meat counter. She was shocked!
That’s funny!
My favorite way to cut up bacon is with scissors. I cut straight across the entire end of a whole package of raw slices about every 1/2 inch. Cutting is fast and lots of bacon can be fried at once in a large frying pan and then mixed into scrambled eggs or other dishes. .
All those shells will be great for the new compost too❤ blending them first will sharpen your blender and stretch them out when spreading in the compost ❤everything looks great ❤
How do you wash all those egg shells? Do we have to do that to the shells before composting?
I crush mine,( after peeling hard boiled eggs)and give them back to my hens , extra calcium! As well as compost, amending soil around certain plants. Added crushed shells to dishsoap makes a great abrasive scrub for really nasty or stuck greasy items.🙂👍
@@debrakrause7570 No don't wash if putting in compost. :)
Thank you thank you for this video! I have 37 chickens and I get average 18 to 24 eggs a day even in the winter it never went below 12 a day. I sell them and it pays for their food. I still have tons of eggs left over. I’ve freeze dried eggs about 19 dz for 4 loads in my dryers. Your video has made it possible for me to not freeze dry more eggs. I never thought about making meals and freezing them. Thanks again
I love cooking bacon in the oven. Easy. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Turn oven on to 400. Bake for 20 minutes. I usually do 2 pans and rotate them halfway through. So easy and cleanup is nothing. I save the grease and throw away the paper. Cookie sheet stays clean! No spatters! Love your meal ideas! Now I’m ready to make all those easy and yummy recipes.
Great freezer ideas. And your church family is very blessed to have you!
If you are breaking your fast then you are having breakfast no matter what time of day it is. 😂
Never thought about the word breakfast. We would occasionally have breakfast for dinner.
Good morning Kevin and Sarah, I really enjoy the videos you make. It's nice to see a husband and wife work together like you two do. Looks like you have a lot of good eating from the 108 eggs. Have a blessed day.
If you cut a tin can in half across it not down it and then remove the end you can make rings out of them. Then you can use those rings to form sausage patties, cut biscuits, and cook eggs inside them so that they are all the same size. Then you can make them into sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits that you can freeze and have for grab, heat, and go breakfast in to morning. The other thing we used to do is make a whole loaf of bread into french toast. Cut wax paper into squares to separate them, stack them up, and slip them back in the bread bag and freeze them. Then you have ready made french toast for grab and go as well. Pop a couple off with a table knife, pop them in the toaster, and go.
It`s nice to have grab & go meals for those busy days.
Sarah. I love how your hair looks. The silver is so beaitiful! Like you!
Years ago, I used a small drip coffee pot for bacon grease. The basket that was made for the coffee grounds acted as the strainer. It was great.
Inspirational! You could also add some veggies, like spinach or broccoli, to add more nutrients.
Kevin and Sarah yall are a breathe of fresh air ❤ thank you for sharing your journey with us
I love your generous hearts!!!❤❤❤
I was watching this video as I was making my own breakfast Burritos. I lay them out on a cookie sheet and put them in the freezer. Then I place all the burritos in a single ziplock bag. We air fry them to give them a slightly crunchy outside. No need to individually wrap or waste plastic wrap.
I bet that took all day. I would not want to see eggs for awhile after all that. Lol. Love watching y'all. I hope the lady recovers from surgery soon and they all enjoy the meals
Suggestion. If your egg and sausage patty become freezer burned before putting on the lid put a layer of plastic scrap on top to seal out as much air as possible. You probably eat fast enough it’s not an issue.and thank you for showing more of how you eat on you diet.
Or, parchment paper! Wish I had done either over the years, but just started in 2023. lol!
Of course I enjoy the content and learning from your channel. However, what also matters to me is your wonderful Christ example and how you look at one another. God bless you both!❤
i use a coffee filter in a stainless widemouth canning funnel for straining lard, some jars in the fridge, others pressure canned for longterm
Hey Kevin and Sarah i just suddenly noticed something watching this video. The change in lifestyle and eating habits is reflecting positively on how your faces glow. First it occurred to me that Kevin looks younger then i looked at Sarah and thought hmmmm. Keep going good stuff
You both work so well together. I love watching you.
Y'all are the sweetest couple and make such a great team!! Thank you for all your teaching and sharing!! God Bless!!!
Great way to use up extra eggs and have no waste. I don't eat any pork, but lots of different veggies can be used with eggs and frozen like onions and peppers and mushrooms and right now asperigus!
Those egg yolks look sooo rich!! This will make some really good breakfast burritos. God bless your efforts in helping this family. Thanks for another great video - love to you and your family!!
I bake my eggs. I use 24 eggs add a little milk, salt and a couple handfuls of cheese put into a huge baking dish @350 and stir every 10 minutes until done (30 minutes total) makes the fluffiest eggs and the cheese is already in the eggs. The kids will love these
I love that you kept the burritos simple for the kids, and didn't try to add things they wouldn't eat. Kudos for thinking ahead.
What a wonderful video. I buy pasture raised eggs. I can use these recipes since my husband and I have a 20 by 40 and a 20 by 20 garden. It takes time to keep the gardens going, but we LOVE it. ❤
Y’all work very well together. Such a good team you are, so good on you. ❤
You two are such a blessing to your church community. I really enjoyed this video. God's continued blessings to you both.❤
A tip for "frying" alot of bacon at once, ...put parchment paper on a large cookie sheet and place a layer of bacon on it and bake it at 400° F to 410° F for 20 to 25 minutes depending on how Crispy or "not so crispy" you like it. Of course ovens vary so keep a close watch on your first batch, till you perfect your bacon 🥓😋🥓👍🏻🤗😁
How do You keep your oven clean from all that popping grease all over the inside? That's why I don't cook it in because I imagine that I'll be down on my knees in the future getting all that grease off of the oven so it doesn't catch on fire.
When we crack tons we put the shells directly into lined pans and cook them to turn to power for the gardens and chickens. Try salsa in egg and sausage roll ups. Cream cheese and Old English cheese on English Muffins too.
An easier and less messy way to cook bacon is in a sauce pot. Put a tablespoon of or two of bacon fat in the bottom of the pot. Cut bacon in half as you already do. Layer all the bacon into the pot randomly. Turn on heat to medium and stir the bacon with tongs, turning as you do. The fat on bottom will melt and keep the first bacon from sticking. The bacon will heat up, render water, then fat then as like magic the bacon will all crisp up into perfectly cooked bacon cooked in its own fat. Amazingly this method almost eliminates all splatter and the bacon all comes out the same. The cooking time is about the same as the frying pan method but much more enjoyable. And it is much easier to pour the bacon fat back into your bacon fat container.😊
I’ll have to try that! Thanks!
I bake mine in the oven on a sheet pan. I'll give your method a go. Thanks.
Do you put a lid on the saucepan while cooking?
@@jholcomb9532 no, leave it off. You will need to stir and turn the bacon every one or two minutes. At first the pound of bacon will seem like a lot to move around the pot, but after a few minutes it’s as easy as stirring a pot of stew. Once the water has all steamed out the temperature of fat in the pot will rise and brown and crisp the bacon nicely.
I just love it when I stumble across great UA-cam channels. A very good video that I enjoyed immensely, so I immediately subscribed so I don't miss any future vids.😊
Thanks for the reminder of how to use my eggs, I buy a lot of eggs for baking. I haven't been doing it in a while and have plenty of eggs. I will be doing this tomorrow. 😊😊
I’m freeze drying a lot of our eggs . Your meals look wonderful . GODBLESS
I put eggshells in pan and bake on 200 til crisp. They will crush really easy. Put around plants because cut worms and snails don't like crawling on the sharp egg shells. Of course, the soil loves the calcium they contain. Chickens love them also for stronger egg shells.
Breakfast for supper is the best! 😊❤
I am a senior citizen and recently started getting Meals on Wheels delivered to me for lunch. It is a well balanced meal and I count it as my main meal. I have eggs every night for a dinner. Yes it is boring sometimes but I have become creative with the meals. I still water glass almost a dozen a day because my girls are all at full speed. 🥰
Perfect timing! My chickens are laying like crazy! God bless!
What blessing, care free hearts😍
Excellent
I make breakfast for dinner at least once a week.
If you substitute the cackle berries, for some rice, throw in some garlic and maybe celery to the sausage and onions, you will have a good jambalaya. If y'all eat rice.
That was a great accomplishment of food preparation and great use of your eggs!
You stove and counter setup is perfect for me, a lefty!
Fantastic use of eggs and perfect timing! I myself have a massive amount of eggs which we share with our children and their families, all our neighbors and my husband's co workers but still have eggs coming in daily and they add up fast. I was wondering what to do with all the eggs and this is a wonderfully perfect idea, great use of eggs. Thank you both for making this video and sharing with all of us. Love and blessings! Missouri Wrightchk
Loved it - thank you so much for sharing. It gave me some great ideas of what to do with our abundant duck eggs! God Bless
