Taco Salad With Cilantro-Lime Ranch

Tuesday, May 31, 2011
Taco Salad with Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.
This is a super quick dinner perfect for when the heat hits outside. In the summer I usually brown the ground beef or chicken in the morning and we eat the salad cold. This is a  favorite in our house and also very budget friendly.

Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing

Saturday, May 28, 2011
Cilantro lime ranch. So yummy and delicious! Perfect for my post later for taco salad. I love homemade ranch I know exactly what's in it! There is no MSG, I can use sour cream and buttermilk containing live cultures and the kids love it! It's not Hidden Valley folks! It's so much more and you can change the ingredients to fit your salad. Bacon ranch ooh dangerous!

The Cable Knit Scarf Project!

Friday, May 27, 2011
This is a scarf I started knitting last November. At the time I was super motivated and had just finished a super simple plain scarf. My first knitting project since I was my daughters age.

I had dragged my husband to a yarn store in Seattle to look for 100% Organic Wool and found it. My mother had said," Organic Wool isn't as irritating as regular wool because of how its handled and washed." Guess what after careful research and knitting through 2 rolls of yarn with my highly sensitive skin, she was right! Organic wool is so luxe and soft I absolutely love the way it feels! 

Then Thanksgiving and Christmas arrived! With all the hustle and bustle and I realized my Christmas scarf wasn't going to be finished. So, it slipped into the bag and hid from my eye until yesterday. Back to work it is! I'm about 2/3rds of the was through and can't wait to finish it, even if it will sit in the closet for an undecided recipient! Then possibly a blanket to come...

Tuna Noodle Casserole

 I love casserole with homemade noodles! This was so creamy and delicious! My Granny would make chicken casserole a lot and this is similar other then the tuna. Another great, delicious budget dinner! Creamy goodness! Sorry I missed a picture or two in the steps this was a busy night in our house trying to get dinner on the table!

This is a great budget saving, delicious dinner, if you like greens. My husband when I met him, didn't like spinach, asparagus, and many other things. But I discovered his idea of greens was an over cooked mess! This was delicious and simple. If you have a little white wine I deglaze the pan with it before adding the pasta, just make sure to cook the wine down.

Oven Baked Chicken Burritos

Thursday, May 19, 2011
This really  is a weak picture as I wasn't planning on posting dinner for tonight as it was more a throw together dinner of bits and pieces but the whole family said yumm. Then Insisted I post. These where crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside. I'm sure any filling would be great but I used half a left over chicken from making stock the other day. The other half was used in chicken and gravy over garlic mashed potatoes which was so delish, but I will have to post that another day as I forgot to take a picture until we had devoured it!

How To Make Homemade Chicken Stock

Monday, May 16, 2011
Homemade Chicken Stock is an easy to make freezer staple and great way to use leftover chicken bones. 


My Granny would always make Homemade Chicken Stock.

I prefer making Chicken Stock with leftover Roasted Chicken Bones the best flavor but it can be made with raw chicken. 

If you don't have enough bones to make broth you can always keep a freezer bag of chicken or turkey  bones and vegetable scrapes frozen until ready to use.

Homemade Chicken Stock is great to keep in the freezer until needed.

A few favorite recipes we love to use Homemade Chicken Stock in are:
