Pantry Challenege Day 6

We cleaned out the refrigerator and had leftovers, along with corn from the freezer, canned fruit and veggies from the pantry. Sent hubby to work with cookies from the freezer and our large stash of fresh giant oranges from the local school band.

How are you doing? I have a large can of black beans, got any suggestions to hide those in something? We are not big bean eaters (well we like greenbeans......lol) and I bought those when I was on a 'lets get healthy kick.'  Yeah, the family really likes when mom gets on that high horse. lol

Pantry Challenge Day 5

I thought I would share some pictures of my stockpiles.......lol. I have a few.

First here is my stash of food that sits above my washer & dryer.

This is my NON gluten free stash of things that I need to use up.

My top of the refrigerator stash......ignore the dust up there! I'm too short to see it, so I don't dust if often :O)

My Lazy-Susan cabinet or better known as "The finger pinching spinner thing" to my toddler son back in the day. lol. Yes I have a ton of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce because the Amish salvage store has it for like .95¢ per bottle and the expiration date is 2013. YUM!

For some reason the server is rejecting my final picture, which is of a tiny cabinet that my Dh and Ds have munchies & snacks stored in. It's not real large, but it has Ritz Crackers, hot cocoa packets and stuff like that in it.

Feel free to share your stash photos with us. I've not even ventured to take pictures of the freezers yet.......lol. Maybe next week.

Happy frugal cooking this month.

Chicken Foot Soup

We finally got the chicken feet out of the freezer and cooked them up. It was a family affair and lots of fun. Well worth it too.

The feet add such a wonderful flavor to the broth.

Here is a link to a great recipe.

Made a batch on Sunday, it was yummy.

After church I walked in the house and said "I smell feet!! Chicken feet that is......."

Click here for the gluten free recipe Chicken Feet Soup.

Then used it to make Jasmine Rice, I took 4 cups of rice, 2 cups water and 2 cups of the very think (like Jell-O) broth and added some parsley to the rice cooker and it was wonderful.

Here are some fun pictures from that experience. As  you can tell I am new to blogging as my pictures are not showing up like they should!

I am peeling skin in this pictures.
