Did You Know???? Recipes

 I have found some great recipes that totally surprised me.  Maybe, just maybe, they will surprise you too!  Maybe, just maybe, they will help us ALL out.

I have not tried these yet - but they have been given high marks of praise from many.  I will be trying them all.

DID YOU KNOW?

You can make butter with powdered milk

3/4 C powdered milk

1/3 C water

1/4 C oil (olive, coconut, what you have)

Pinch of salt - if wanting salted butter

Place the powdered milk in the food processor - add other ingredients.  Blend until it starts to thicken.  Check every couple of minutes until you get it thickened.

Will not be hard - but spreadable (like a thick version of mayo or spreadable butter).

Makes about 3/4 cup.  Lasts about a week in the frig.  Tastes like butter - great for toast, pancakes, biscuits, veggies, etc.  (Not sure about baking - may change texture).

DID YOU KNOW?

You can make your own bouillon - veggie and (no) chicken

These bouillons are vegan, gluten free, MSG free, soy free, no chemicals  WIN WIN!!!

Veggie Bouillon

1 C nutritional yeast

1 1/2 Tbsp. salt

1 Tbsp. garlic powder

1 Tbsp. onion powder

1 Tbsp. thyme

1 Tbsp. parsley

1 tsp. celery seeds

1/4 tsp. turmeric

Blend until powdered and store in an airtight container.  1 Tbsp. to 1 C hot water

This can be purchased at most grocery stores in the baking aisle or next to regular yeast.  Health food stores sell as well.  Adds great flavor and nutrition to food without all the chemicals and it is vegetarian.

(NO) Chicken Bouillon

1 1/3 C nutritional yeast

3 Tbsp. onion powder

7 1/2 tsp. salt (adjust to your taste)

1 Tbsp. rice protein powder (any protein powder works)

2 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. thyme

1 tsp. sage            (I won't be adding to mine)

1 tsp. paprika

1/2 tsp. turmeric

Blend in a small food processor until powder and keep in airtight container.

1 level teaspoon per 1 cup of hot water

DID YOU KNOW?

You can make pizza dough without yeast

NO Yeast Pizza Dough

2 1/4 C all purpose flour

1 Tbsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 C butter - room temperature

1 C milk

Mix in a mixer with a paddle if you have - until ball is reached.  You can do this by hand as well - just mix until you get a ball.

NO RISING - NO WAITING - NO YEAST!

Bake after topping with ingredients you desire at 450* for 10-12 minutes

I learn something new each day - and I love learning new ways to cook, season, and bake!  We can be mindful of what we have or what we put in our bodies by just trying some new ways and recipes.

I can't wait to try all of these.

PS - I have others to share later!!!!!

ENJOY!
