Re-Stocking Supply ~ Flourless Brownies (Oh My!)

We used the last "can" of homemade mushroom soup in our freezer, so I'll be spending the day mixing up more and re-stocking the supply.  

This time I will make a few cream of chicken soups as well.



Yesterday, I spent the morning in the kitchen making breakfast.  I started by cooking a shallot, red pepper, and chopped kale. Later I added one small minced garlic.



I placed leftover chopped ham in the larger quiche dish (oiled with olive oil).


Then I added the veggies to both the small (for my vegetarian daughter) dish, and then topped the ham in the larger dish.



I topped them both with eggs beat with some plain greek yogurt (I mixed 8 eggs, with 2 individual size (5.3 oz/150g) cartons of non-gmo greek yogurt).

It's funny how things work out when not even planned.  Daughter will get her protein this way too.  And I plan to play around with homemade yogurts this coming year too.




I added the extra egg on account of the small dish, but the nice part about this type of dish, is I can bake Daughter's dish in a mini-quiche dish, or in a wide-mouth half pint canning jar.



Although I was tempted to sprinkle a cheese on this dish, I did not - all experimental.



Later I mixed up a batch of homemade teriyaki sauce for dinner as well.

And I apologize in advance to Mama Pea (tee hee), I made the Flourless Brownies that Family Circle magazine had in their Valentine's day food issue.  The recipe is online too, but it appears you have to register at their site to get the entire recipe.  Our stores here did not carry organic unsweetened chocolate, but I will be calling a few health stores now to find some.  We love this brownie recipe.



I don't use non-stick spray anymore, so I used olive oil, and had a bit of trouble getting them out of the muffin tin.  We topped these (warmed of course) with ice cream then drizzled Whiskey Butterscotch sauce over it.  I think I saw a few kids (and Hubby too) licking their plates.

It was our "out with a bang" dessert for the year, but the main reason to try the sauce was to taste it (possible gifts for the next upcoming year).

Although the year is coming to and end, we are getting our routine back to normal.  Goat feed was re-stocked as well, and homemade dog food for Sadie.

After that absolutely wonderful dessert, we all need to go do a good work out now.  It was worth it though.

Oh, my, gosh. I almost swooned at the thought of that dessert! I did manage to get the recipe, so I will be trying those at some point over the winter. I am looking forward to some indoor time to finish projects that have been lingering for way too long.
Susan, both the brownies and sauce are delicious. I won't be making it for a while now. We just wanted to try it, and I am so glad we did. Of course good ingredients help it taste better too.

I had to grin when the picture of the nearly finished off quiche came up. Nobody liked it, huh? ;o)

Don't apologize for including the picture of the Whiskey Butterscotch Sauce over ice cream on top of the brownie. Didn't bother me a bit. But after licking the picture on my screen for a while, my tongue feels funny and the screen is a little blurry.
Mama Pea, I just about spit out my coffee reading your comment - ha ha ha! So funny! I need a good laugh every day too.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
