A healthy bread with most meals:

I’ve gotten into really good routines now with making my own bread products and other flour products. And I’ve found, that with a growing family, adding in as many bread products as I can, helps not only with cost but in keeping those bellies full without sacrificing health.

IDEAS:

English muffins, butter, and eggs for breakfast

Ezekiel Waffles for breakfast

Bean, egg, and cheese breakfast burritos for breakfast

Making 4 sandwich loaves a week:

PB&J;

Grilled Cheese

Toast on the side with raw butter

Dinners:

Easy artisan loaves with dinners

Homemade tortillas

Herb & Cheese muffins with dinner, etc.

Getting back to making my own pantry staples.

Homemade cleaning items again.

I’ve started first with laundry detergent and dishwasher detergent.

Growing & Preserving more of my own food. This might be limited a bit this year, but working on it none the less

Much more consistent meal plans. I’d like to develop four weeks of rotating meal plans for each season! I think this will start in the summer. We’ll see how it goes, and I’ll share what I learn as I go.
