    I would substitute canned corn for the green beans in the Spanish rice recipe. The first thing I thought of with the ricotta is a big pan of homemade lasagna - have not had that in a long time.... Use some of the bread for garlic toast or better yet garlic cheese bread!

    As to bread recipes, one thing people tend to forget is that you can make bread crumbs yourself, try the bread in the oven and crush it in a mortar or run it in a blender. You can season it too with for example garlic or herbs or both too. A very simple thing but totally doable for most people since you don't have to hover over your oven while it dries, it is enough that you are just at home for a couple hours. You don't have to make the crumbs the same night, just put the dried bread in an air tight container and do it the next night or next week.

    If you still have the ricotta, you could make a few lasagnas for the freezer. If you use those disposable pans it won't tie up other pans. The best part of a disposable is you don't have to wash that nasty lasagna pan. I usually use a bread pan because I like more of a deep dish lasagna. It's a nice size for two people with leftovers. That size would probably work for the size of your family, at least until your kids hit their teenage years lol!

    Those meatballs are delicious with a sweet and sour sauce - I usually saute an onion and pepper, add homemade sweet/sour and chopped canned pineapple. Pour sauce over the meatballs and bake until heated through. Serve over rice. For meal planning - make a double amount of the sauce. Freeze it in a container next to your meatballs and you have an quick dinner ready to go.

    We always make yummy crutons with stale bread. Chop it up into little cubes, drizzle with oil, garlic, herbs, salt and spread it on a baking tray. Put in a low oven and stir a couple of times while they dry out. Let them cool and dry out completely then transfer to an airtight container, keeps for weeks. Add to salads, crumble for a yummy pasta casserole topping... or just snack on them!

    On the bread front - bread and butter pudding, summer fruit pudding and of course a bacon sandwich - just bacon and toasted bread with butter (if you want - it’s better with toast), cheese on toast etc.

    Highly suggesting grabbing yourself a bread machine from the Goodwill. Just make sure you test it out before you take it. I got 3 from the Goodwill and I'm making all sorts of recipes with them. They are fantastic and bread ready on demand. Great haul Carolina.

    I have to hide Maraschino cherries or my son will eat the whole jar🤪 I often get limes in my food pickups-sometimes a huge box full-juice and can as is or make limeade concentrate -waterbath can for cherry limeade or my favorite Malibu rum limeade😋- dehydrate lime zest and dehydrate lime slices for future cocktails and desserts!

    @Carolina…As far as following recipes, my mom (r.I.p.) used to like to clip recipes from the newspaper every week and then she’d change half the ingredients and say ‘I just don’t think this tastes right’ hahaha… ‘Um mom…were you really supposed to use nutmeg in there instead of pepper?’ and the other funny little thing she did was try to get us to guess what ingredients were in what she cooked. It always cracked us up and now when we get together and start talking about it we almost cry from laughing so hard.

    Girl, love you!! And here in Illinois (1/17/23) our Aldi eggs in Morton are $4.79 a dozen. It sucks, I wish I could have my own chickens

    • @mamabairds
      @mamabairds  Рік тому +2

      Wow!! That's a crazy price!! I'm glad we have chickens. They don't lay much during the winter, but I'm hoarding them all for myself and not selling any right now. I still get about 3 eggs a day between my whole flock and I'm super thankful for that!

      North Carolina stores have started putting limits on eggs. 4 doz a family x $5 doz = $20
