Sourdough discard is always in abundance around here, so I'm always seeking out new ways to use it up rather than throwing it out. Thankfully there are endless varieties of recipes that call for sourdough discard. No shortage of options here! I frequently use up any sourdough discard in pancakes, waffles, crepes, pizza crust, or... Continue Reading →
My tomato harvest came to a close in early October. I stored just about every Roma tomato that was pulled from the garden in the freezer until I was ready to process them all (find all the info about What to do with Roma Tomatoes here). That time finally came a few weeks ago as... Continue Reading →
Around here, slow Saturday mornings often involve a hearty brunch. That almost always means eggs, potatoes, and some form of sourdough bread. We often rotate between sourdough pancakes, waffles, chocolate chip muffins, crepes, or biscuits. I love these bread items because they give us the health benefits of fermentation and they are all naturally sweetened... Continue Reading →
I love from scratch foods. There truly is nothing like that kind of cooking. Homemade Crock Pot Cinnamon Applesauce on a cool autumn day will fill anyone with joy. Lathering early morning biscuits with a Homemade Butter. The smell and flavor of a Honey-Sweetened Monster Cookie in the afternoon. I'm telling ya...you just can't find... Continue Reading →
Tortillas were one of the first food items I made from scratch when my husband and I were first married. I mixed them up in our little apartment kitchen, rolled them out into odd shapes (I could not make them into a circle to save my life!), and baked them up on the skillet. That... Continue Reading →

The amount of rain we've received over the past few weeks is definitely not normal for this time of year, so I'm looking for ways to enjoy the time inside (even when we'd rather be outdoors). Dinner tonight will be a weekend favorite: ham... Continue Reading →
I love being a homemaker (you can read more about that here) and it seems like part of that job is providing yummy treats for the family to enjoy every once in awhile. Monster cookies are one of my childhood favorites. I used to tell my mom that I could just eat the dough raw... Continue Reading →
I love a yummy yogurt parfait for breakfast or as a snack. Vanilla yogurt, chocolate chips, blueberries, strawberries, and finally...granola! It's one of my favorite treats. I used to buy granola at the store until I realized that I could make it at home for much cheaper! I now enjoy making a big batch at... Continue Reading →
I really like my sourdough starter. So much so that I am setting out to incorporate it into anything I can. Sourdough waffles are a healthy alternative to a classic item on the breakfast menu. This recipe is quick, healthy, and simple to make! One way I achieved a healthier waffle option was through the... Continue Reading →
If you are new here you will soon discover my love of sourdough. Like so many other people, I began my sourdough journey this past summer. I had no idea there were so many uses for sourdough besides bread. I’ve made Pancakes, Waffles, Tortillas, Drop Biscuits, Crackers, Peanut Butter Crepes, and so much more! Beginning...
