A leftover night. Steak, pork ribs, and tater tots with green beans. Simple but delicious and filling! Americans throw away tons of food a year. Most of it isn't composted. Further, the costs to you and your family are far too high. Food is so very expensive now. Especially if one eats a lot of prepared or processed food. When one plans properly, then using the leftovers isn't a hard thing to do. Here's how to get started. Start cooking your own food from scratch. Too busy? Then you can probably afford my services. Otherwise, it's just a matter of menu planning and time management. Feel free to reach out if you need advice on this subject. Last bit of knowledge. Cows gain 1 lb for every 6lbs of feed. So when that hairy, green roast beef left over gets thrown away (weighing in at 2.3 lbs) means 12-13 lbs of feed is thrown away. When we do not consume all we buy, we put more strain on the economy, not to mention your own families finances. Again, to break the cycle of storing leftovers until they are green enough( or slimy enough) to throw away may take help.  Please  DM me if you find yourself in such need.

The Best Buffalo Chicken Pizza Recipe {keto-friendly} It's great when one recipe can be used for two different dishes. This recipe is the second recipe that can be created with the Buffalo Chicken Dip Recipe Keto Style, and it's a quick dish and perfect for a weeknight family meal. This Keto Buffalo Chicken Pizza recipe was super easy to make and only took half an hour to do, and most of the time; I was waiting for the cauliflower pizza to cook and cool down. This recipe does not include blue cheese. While I love it, my husband is not a fan. So, we kept it off for this recipe. When making a prepackaged cauliflower pizza, be sure to follow the directions. While they are lovely to enjoy for a quick night meal or a Saturday game night treat, they do take time. So, allocate the time, and it is not the last-minute whip-together dish you may think. This recipe is great for Visit the blog for more details. #sabrinasorganizing https://lnkd.in/eJYBnhm #RecipeswithChicken #buffalochicken #quickrecipes

I made homemade pizza this weekend. It was life changing y'all. Life. Changing. I've been cooking a lot more lately. Having someone to cook for certainly helps. But doing so has made me think more critically about my own consumer behavior. I grew up eating pizza on Thursdays. My dad was part of bowling league on Thursday nights and by the end of the week, my mother was exhausted from cooking. Ordering pizza was an easy fix. Not anymore. A large pizza that provides 3-4 services will run you anywhere from $22 to $32. For a family, a couple of pizzas adds up quick. I made homemade pizza this weekend with flour from a local flour mill, yeast, salt, water, and a pinch of sugar. I made a homemade marinara sauce with an onion, diced tomatoes, and some spices. I splurged on fresh mozzarella. In total, I was able to make two "large" pizzas for ~$15. Not to mention, it was INCREDIBLY satisfying to eat a pizza I made versus a pizza I bought. As folks figure out how to navigate increasing costs at the grocery store, I think there's an easy fix -- get back to the kitchen. It's cheaper. It's healthier. And it's far more intrinsically rewarding than convenience foods. Have you cooked anything delish lately? Drop your recipes in the comments. And if you don't cook, what's the biggest think holding you back? What do you need to get started?

Make no bones about it. Well, 'boneless' doesn't actually mean boneless according to the Ohio Supreme Court. Believe it or not, chicken wings advertised as 'boneless' can have bones because well, 'boneless wings' refers to a cooking style. Perhaps, we should be more thoughtful about where we get our wings. Duh, duh, duh, the plot chickens. Boneless...one would assume that would be mean 'without bones'. It turns out consumers cannot expect boneless chicken wings to actually be free of bones. I don't know. I think it's reasonable for anyone who sees the word 'boneless' to expect something not to have bones. The ruling runs afowl of common sense. But it's the latest in food rulings that seems to have many running around like headless chickens. This past May, a judge in Indiana ruled that tacos and burritos are (gulp) tacos and burritos are Mexican-style sandwiches, adding yet another topic sure to further polarize communities. Keep in mind, Mexican-style sandwiches do exist...they're called Tortas. Suddenly, there's an urge to cross the road into sanity. Despite what the legal system says about sandwiches, chicken parts and everything in between, it's worth remembering you can call your food whatever you like, though with boneless chicken wings, chicken nuggets may be a more eggs-cellent alternative https://lnkd.in/ggwhR-6r #chickenwings #boneless #food #legal #marketing #culture #restaurant #ohio

The family and I are enjoying the #USA Ft. Carson Freedom Fest, though we've been waiting 10 minutes longer than the expected 16 minutes for our food truck dinner. That's fine, it's part of the experience, but it got me thinking about how to improve their process. It seems (anecdotally) that the wait time increases with each customer so they're not keeping up with incoming demand. There are two lines: one for those who've ordered and one for those waiting to order; both are getting longer. If my opinion were asked, I'd suggest that the fellow taking orders move slower - he is far outpacing the cooks in the truck. Alternatively, it might be best if he is removed from the process altogether. There is a young lady who calls out customer names and gives them their food. If she also took orders she could set the pace - one order in one order out. Further, I don't know the complexity of their cooking process though I can see that their menu is robust. 4 kinds of pork sandwiches, 4 kinds of chicken sandwiches, 4 kinds of nachos, 5 kinds of tacos, and 6 kinds of hot dogs - different toppings, etc. It might be possible to use pricing to help guide customers toward faster options. [It turns out that my sandwich had fried onions, pulled pork, and sauce on a bun; a max 20 second cycle time. My daughter's street tacos took probably 45 seconds to assemble.] I'd be curious to see their pre-work (particularly in a food prep & safety environment). The hot dog condiments could readily be moved off the production line (and labor, by having the customer serve themselves). Such an interesting way to spend a Saturday afternoon! Edit 1: as a customer, we've learned to look for food trucks with fewer menu options and for fast-moving (or nonexistent) 2nd lines. Edit 2: we got our food after 40 minutes; ok. Rebecca's nachos had neither sour cream nor jalapenos, despite confirming those toppings. This defect could be resolved with a condiment table and it shows that defects arise from rushing as well as inattentiveness.
