The great thing about the rub is that you can choose whether you want it more sweet or more spicy. I’ve tried it several ways. For a sweeter rub, do not use the black pepper in the seasoning mix. You can also reduce the amount of cumin and chili powder. For a spicier rub, reduce the amount of brown sugar to 1 T. per recipe. You can also increase the amount of chili power or cumin.

Rosemary Grilled Red Potatoes

This is NOT a freezer recipe but it is a wonderful side dish! This is one of our favorite recipes to make on the grill in the summer but you can also make it in your oven if you have a cast iron skillet. Just make sure you preheat the skillet as you are preheating the oven.

RoastedPotatoes

Enough red potatoes for 4 servings
1 t. minced garlic
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. black pepper
1-1/2 t. minced fresh rosemary (1 sprig)
1-1/2 T. olive oil

Clean and cut potatoes into bite sized pieces. Boil the potatoes until you can easily poke with a fork. Mix garlic, salt, black pepper, rosemary and olive oil in a bowl. When potatoes are done, drain and add to bowl. Toss to coat with seasoning mix.

Preheat grill to medium high heat (about 400 to 450 degrees). Place potatoes on a baking sheet. Place on grill and cook for 20 minutes or until potatoes begin to brown. Remove from heat and serve. (The potatoes can also be cooked in the oven at 450 degrees for 20 minutes.)

A Week in the Kitchen with Carol

SweetSpicySteakRubHello everyone and welcome summer! It’s grilling time and we found out that our grill did not survive the winter. We have an indoor grill that we have been using all winter. It’s been great but there is just something about a steak cooked on the grill! So we broke down and bought a replacement grill. We have been grilling every day since we bought it! One of the new recipes we tried is Sweet and Spicy Steak Rub. The great thing about the rub is that you can choose whether you want it more sweet or more spicy. I’ve tried it several ways. Read the comments section in the recipe for tips on how to adjust the taste. You can prepare the rub ahead of time and just cook the steak when you purchase it or you can freeze the steak with the rub on it (the rub will be more like a marinade as the steak defrosts). Either way will work.

Some days it seems like everything at my house is in a constant state of change. Just as you begin to adjust and get used to the way things are, everything changes again! Life goes by so quickly and it is so easy to think that all the little things that you do don’t add up to much when you are in the middle of it all. Once the dust clears and life starts to slow down, you begin to see glimpses of the big picture – of the reason for doing everything. Change is inevitable but just wait until you see what you learn from it!

One big change for my family is my last child moving out of the house. What a big change! It really makes you ask yourself a lot of questions. Did I teach him everything he needs to know? Can he take care of himself?

StevenFriedRice2As a parent, I believe that you should teach your kids everything they need to know to take care of themselves regardless of gender. All my kids learned how to cook, do laundry, iron, vacuum, clean the bathroom, etc. but you always wonder how much of it sinks in. I got my answer when my son sent me a picture of the Fried Rice that he made using a copy of the Big Book of Freezer Cooking that I had given him before he left! What a great feeling as parent! To all of you who are just starting out or are deep in the trenches on this journey of parenthood:

  • It’s worth it!
  • They are listening!
  • Don’t give up!

JeanneRobertsonShow2I believe that a good sense of humor and a good laugh can get you through just about any situation. For my husband’s birthday, I decided to take him to see Jeanne Robertson in person. For those of you who have never heard of Jeanne, she is a hilarious speaker who tells humorous stories based on her life experiences. We just about busted a gut – I have not laughed that hard in a long time.

One of the stories she shared that evening is called “Don’t send a man to the grocery store!” Jeanne has a recipe for 7-Up® Pound Cake that she makes and keeps extras in the freezer in case a friend is sick or someone in the community passes. One day she needed to send her husband to the store to pick up the ingredients for her Pound Cake. Click here to hear what happened.

Isn’t that a great story! I just had to make Jeanne Robertson’s 7-Up® Pound Cake and let me tell you it is wonderful! One recipe will make one 10-inch bundt pan, 2 8-inch tub pans or 2 full size loaf pans. I made it using the loaf pans which was perfect – one for now and one in the freezer for later. The lemon flavor is great and the soda gives it a lighter texture. Click here to see the recipe.

7UpPoundCakeThe cake is very good plain but you can prepare a glaze for the cake, if you prefer. Combine 1-1/2 C. of confectioner’s sugar, 2 T. milk, and 1/4 t. of lemon extract and stir until smooth. If too thick, add more milk. If too thin, add more confectioner’s sugar. Pour glaze over cooled cake.

A Week in the Kitchen with Carol

icedteaHello everyone! Wow – it’s hard to believe that another month has gone by! It’s finally spring and we got a nice shot of warm weather for several days. It was even warm enough to make sun tea. It’s cold again but soon it will time to work in the yard, plant the summer garden, and cook on the grill. It will also be time to pick strawberries, rhubarb, and start canning and freezing summer produce. I can’t wait!

I am just completing week five of my Pantry Challenge. We usually only do four weeks of a Pantry Challenge but this time we have continued past that to clean out the stand alone freezer and the refrigerator freezer. We are considering extending the challenge out two or three more weeks. We’ll see how long I can hold out! It’s hard to see an empty freezer.

Drum roll please…. After 5 weeks of the Pantry Challenge, I have saved over $130! This will go a long way towards buying meats for my next cooking day. Exciting! I can’t wait to plan my menu.

I’ve been posting my weekly menus on the 30 Day Gourmet Facebook® fan page. If you are not already a fan, make sure you check us out. There’s a lot going on online! Here’s a recap of weeks 2 through 4 of my Pantry Challenge.

Week Five Recipes
Sunday

We had a “soup day” for lunch and served some of the lunch portions of miscellaneous soups that I have in the freezer for lunch including Slow Cooker Ham and Bean Soup and Slow Cooker Chicken Chili.

I made some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins for the week. It’s based off the Chocolate Pecan Pumpkin Bread a recipe from the Big Book of Freezer Cooking. This is one of our favorite muffin recipes.

For dinner I served Oven Crisp Chicken Fingers. It’s also a recipe from the Big Book of Freezer Cooking. This is a very versatile recipe. You can serve them plain with some marinara sauce for dipping or along side Fettuccini Alfredo for a fancier presentation.

Monday
I found shrimp on sale for $3.00 a pound while grocery shopping. I made a shrimp stir-fry for the family. It was wonderful and much less expensive than eating out!

Tuesday
I had an English Roast that I had pulled out of the freezer. We were in the mood for Tex Mex so I made Slow Cooker Beefy Burritos. This recipe is so easy! You can control the heat by the choosing different salsas. Serve it with sautéed peppers and onions, Mexican Rice, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, salsa and sour cream. Yummy!

Wednesday
I served Parmesan Crusted Tilapia (from the Big Book of Freezer Cooking) again – I can’t help it! It’s one of our favorites! I served a side dish portion of Tara’s Macaroni and Cheese (a Members area recipe). It was a great way to clear two things out of the freezer and have left over mac and cheese for lunches.

Thursday
I made Savory Turkey Burgers and Grill Fries. I grow rosemary in the kitchen window during the winter. It smells great and it is wonderful in this burger recipe! I also have an old cast iron skillet we used to use when camping. This works great for Grill Fries. You just cook them in the oven in the skillet at 425 degrees.

These are so pretty and they taste great. I made some at Christmas but thought they would be great for a Valentine’s party. The recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies depending on the size of the cookie cutter used.

I had purchased a ham at Christmas time when they were on sale and I had not cooked it yet. I have been wanting to try a different ham glaze – something with a tropical twist – Mango Orange Ham Glaze. Dijon mustard makes it tangy but the mango and orange combination gives it a very distinct when you taste the ham after it is cooked. My family really liked it.
