Alright, I’ve saved the best for last. If you follow me on FACEBOOK, you probably noticed I was talking about making a virtually fat-free cheesecake. Be still my cheesecake beating heart! Cheesecake is hands down my favorite dessert, so you can imagine how excited I was to make it all from food storage powdered milk [...]
Freezer Meals: Food Storage for…well…your Freezer!
So when Jenny contacted me….OFFERING to show me how to make freezer meals, I had to take her up on her offer. After all, wouldn’t you love to have an expert come to your kitchen and help you cook something?! Well I figured you might, which is why I convinced her to let me tape [...]
Hawaiian Meatballs & Rice: Rice Food Storage Recipes
This is my new favorite done in 15 minutes meal (when I make my rice in the pressure cooker)! It tastes great, is kid friendly, and works for company as well.

Sunshine Crepe Filling-Freeze Dried Berry Food Storage Recipe
My all time favorite breakfast is crepes and hardly ever are the stars aligned where I have cream cheese and fresh strawberries for the ultimate filling….especially in the winter (sorry, I’m not usually in the mood to spend $2+ a pound for strawberries). So, I came up with this filling. It’s a close second in [...]
Berry-Apple Pie: Freeze Dried Berry Food Storage Recipes
While experimenting with freeze dried berries, I HAD to try it in a pie. I’ve always been confused why pies are so big in the Summer when it’s ridiculous to bake a pie in 100 degree weather. I mean I understand that is when the fruit is in season…but wouldn’t it be so much better [...]

Blueberry Syrup: Freeze Dried Berry Food Storage Recipes
So why just stop at raspberry syrup? Freeze dried berries also come in blueberries (full of anti-oxidants) and strawberries (check out the recipe for strawberry syrup on Wednesday’s post!)!

Vegetable Cheese Sauce-Magic Mix Food Storage Recipes
Don’t get me wrong. I literally LOVE broccoli and cauliflower (and I realize that by admitting that some of you may be questioning my taste in food). However, my husband, like a lot of people, doesn’t like broccoli or cauliflower either (and was also disappointed when I craved raw broccoli with our first baby instead [...]
Another Mom Favorite, Meatloaf-Food Storage Recipes
I realize most people don’t like meatloaf…but I think it’s just because they’ve never had GOOD meatloaf before! Trust me, I’ve had my fair share of nasty dried out globs of meat trying to pass as meatloaf (of course all of these were AFTER I moved out of my parent’s house). I guess this week [...]
