Easy Kid-Friendly Fish Sticks

Posted by Hallee on Sep 17, 2010 in American Quisine, entrees, Hallee's Galley, Recipes

This dish took no time to put together. I used tilapia, because that’s what I had on hand, but just about any white fish will do. The kids loved it, and they loved helping me make it.

The Concession Stand

Posted by Hallee on Sep 9, 2010 in Life, Parenting, Raising girls, Raising teens

At the BINGO hall is a concession stand that sells the typical fare – mostly soy hamburgers on white bread, pork hotdogs, chips with nacho cheese, frozen “pizza logs” reheated in a microwave, etc. Consequently, when I get home from the soup kitchen, I usually make a big dinner and take it to feed to the volunteers.

Tantalizing Tomato & Onion Tart

Posted by Hallee on Sep 8, 2010 in Breakfast, diet & fasting, entrees, Hallee's Galley, Leviticus, Recipes, sides, Snacks

I’ll admit that I have not yet made this dish. However, it sounds fantastic and it is more of a “when I add it to the menu” kind of thing rather than an “if I add it to the menu.” This would be an amazing brunch or lunch dish, a perfect potluck change from the normal pot of country beans, or the base for a vegetarian dinner. It is almost limitless as a dish. I cannot wait to try it.

The Dollar Menu

Posted by Hallee on Aug 25, 2010 in Life

Gregg and I watched Food, Inc., last week. The facts presented were interesting, but it was just ridiculous how they twisted things with the intent of eliciting an emotional response. The facts as facts were enough to get the point across without the added exaggeration element. But, I guess that’s how “documentaries” are presented.

Honey Sweetened Grape Jelly with Homemade Apple Pectin

Posted by Hallee on Aug 23, 2010 in Gardening, Hallee's Galley, kitchen & cooking tips, Preserving, Recipes, sauces & spreads

Pectin is found in under ripe food and is a substance that will jell fruit juice when combined with sweeteners. I’m not all that crazy about growing my own fruit, being careful about the source of the food I buy, carefully preparing to preserve such fruit — then having to preserve it with a box of some Sure-Jel that came off of the Wal-Mart shelf. So, I researched into how to make my own pectin.

Tasty Turkey Broth

Posted by Hallee on Nov 27, 2009 in American Quisine, entrees, Hallee's Galley, Recipes, Soups

Homemade broth is the best. You’ll be amazed at just how astonishing the taste difference is using homemade broth versus mass produced store bought.

Artisan Style Mayonnaise

Posted by Hallee on Sep 24, 2009 in Hallee's Galley, Recipes, sauces & spreads

I much prefer making my mayonnaise fresh at home. Obviously, it saves money, but the main advantage is in the taste. Home made is not loaded with chemicals and preservatives.
