A Week of Meals from the Homestead Pantry |

Hey Everyone! Join me for the first week of the #threeriverschallenge where I cook and bake using only the food we have preserved and stored in our homestead pantry. See what we ate this week without going to the grocery store! I'm sharing ways I used up some of my excess jars of jam & jelly and the neglected jars of things we don't like. Let's make some food!
Thanks for watching friends!

[@picklemetink05]

Yes!!!! An all day bread making video would be so inspirational!! Especially during the January Three Rivers challenge!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it. You can look for that soon! 🤍

[@Tracie804]

Also interested. Thanks!

[@susanhickman1746]

I’ve just found your channel bc of the #3riverschallenge. I enjoyed your content and manner of presenting your information and meals and was pleased to hear that your family does leftovers! I’m a 70+ yo great grandmother who with my husband enjoy eating most meals at home. I’ve done batch cooking during the years of raising our family of 6 especially while I still worked out of the home. Now, it’s just the 2 of us most of the time as our families live out of town from us. Thx for sharing your family life and I pray everyone returns to good health. Susan

[@kayreading1498]

Sweetie pie, I learn so much from you. You inspire me to be a better steward of my time and resources. Very proud of you! Looking forward to the weeks on gardening and as you well know, l know very little. Lol love you, Marmie

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I am who I am because of you, papa and Jesus 🤍 love you more

[@xxRIOxx]

You and I are very different on paper. I'm a young gal like yourself but living in the city, never having kids, not religious. BUT I'm commenting to tell you how valuable your videos are to so many people! Learning to keep meals and preserve food is just as valuable to my two person household as it is to a larger household. I used to waste so much food just not planning or preserving properly. Thank you for sharing so much! I'll be canning along with you this year for the first time 🥰 PS also a South Central PA'er (now living in SWPA but still!) ❤️🥖🌽🫙

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

You’re off to a great start with the challenge! Your choices looked delicious. I’d love to see detailed bread making content and I look forward to all the garden videos too! Hope all are feeling better soon!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you, Cheryl! We are all on the mend, Praise the Lord! Thanks for the feedback 🤍

[@glendagonzalez2469]

When there's a lot of fruit in the quick bread batter the center takes forever to "dry", but thats not necessarily a bad thing. If you leave the center more moist it takes on a custard like texture which is delicious and like a different creation. 😊

[@EricaD61]

Using your fruit in muffins and loaves was great I can't wait to do that. Would love a bread day video. It's nearly time for me to start gardening again here too and I love see those vids. Thanks for the week.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

We really enjoyed the baked goods! It seems the general consensus is everyone wants a bread video so you can look for that in the future! I’m so glad to have a fellow garden lover here, I’m excited to start in on that content! Thank you so much ☺️

[@lattelolly6925]

I enjoy the cooking and recipes with the pantry challenge. Helps to have new ideas in using up things. Love the breads and other baking also.

[@GardeningWarrior]

I love gardening and teaching others to garden too. I am in a global gardening collaboration for the 3rd year and I am so excited to be starting my winter sowing. I vermicompost garden in containers so I understand the worm farming too. Great to see you looking forward already!

[@lemoncrinckles]

Was looking for a wholesome channel to watch and support. I think you had me at the potato harvest video. 😊Your Christmas vlog was absolutely beautiful. And I appreciate that your canning content is accurate and responsible. No "rebel canning" encouraged here. Sharing food preservation information is a serious responsibility, as doing it wrong can affect a person's health, or worse. For some reason I thought you live in the south, but did I hear you mention PA? You're off to a great start, and as long as the Lord gives you joy in the doing, I think your channel will continue to grow and grow...just like your bountiful garden! 😊

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

I agree with you 100%!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you both! You’re encouragement means so much! Yes we are in PA, small town country living is the life for me! I 💯 follow safe canning practices, I always say, “your kitchen -your rules” but you won’t ever hear me teach anything unsafe! So far I really enjoy sharing, it is a wonderful create outlet where I can help and inspire others. The Lord laid it upon my heart to start this journey and I’ll continue on it until He says otherwise! Thank you for joining me 🤍

[@patriciamccollumn4635]

That’s so kind, thank you! I truly appreciate it!

[@angelenerash5160]

Such creative ways to use things up!! Great job! It all looked delicious. I'm really impressed you used up 2 cans of carrots 😉 I'm sorry your family is dealing with ongoing illness. That is not fun. Hopefully you get it all out of the way after this.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Haha! Thanks, I’m proud of myself for using them too 😂. We are thankfully all on the mend and hopefully this is the end of it! Thanks for being here! 🤍

[@nicholecoleman6924]

Would love an all day bread video! Excited to see your use of the jams/jellies too.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

You can look for the bread video this week! ☺️

[@nancyporis5411]

Add butter and brown sugar into canned carrots. So delicious. You can also put in a little cherry pie filling in the carrots. That is how I learned to eat cooked carrots.

[@oldvillagefarm1348]

Yes please! An all day bread making video would be awesome! Gardening is my biggest passion so I can’t wait to see how you go about planning for your garden and what varieties you’ll be planting. Really enjoyed 😊 Thanks

I have a yummy salad dressing to use up jams and jellies. Currently I have leftover cranberry sauce with a orange champagne vinegar which is amazing but the original recipe called for apricot jelly. Super yummy and tasty and can be used to marinate meat too.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Oh, that sounds lovely! Thank you for sharing!!

[@shannonkernall-singh9611]

[@kathleenritter4532]

Loving your videos. Timing is too funny. I just recently got started on bread making journey. I'm 51 and should have started decades ago. Lol. Do you think the tortilla maker is worth the investment? We eat ALOT of tortillas.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

I appreciate that so much Kathleen! It’s never too late, I’m proud of you for starting now! Well as a busy mama with lots on Her to do list, the tortilla press is worth it to me, especially when making big batches and freezing them. Time is precious. Rolling them out by hand is certainly doable and sometimes I still do if I’m only doing a few!

[@auntiepam5649]

Will do! I’m planning on it soon. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! ☺️

[@juliedayton8754]

What a blessing to have found your channel sister. I've been binge watching in the a.m. with a good strong cup of coffee. Since most everyone has suggested a bread making video, I was hoping to hear from you on this question. I noticed your bread recipe seemed sticky, even up to the point of that final rise. Is this, perhaps key to a soft moist loaf in the end? Do you ever add additional flour to the dough to remedy the stickiness or do you just stay with your recipe amounts for flour? I'm ridin the struggle bus here sister with my dough 🙄 Thank you 😘

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

So sorry for the delay, I ended up getting swamped with comments and could keep up! Yes! Breads will end up dry and crumbly if too much flour is added. It should be manageable, not too sticky. Under kneading can keep a dough overly sticky as well. It needs at least 8-10 minutes of a good knead ☺️

[@riseshinefarm5290]

Just subscribed! I’m doing the pantry challenge too. I’m definitely going to try the granola bars and jam bars!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thanks for joining me here! Woohoo, I hope its going well for you! Its been fun thus far, and I'm happy with the grocery savings!!

I've heard that colloidal silver works well for pink eye in both humans and animals, although I have not needed to try it personally. A bread making video would be great. Do you make English muffins? I've been a little intimidated to try a recipe and it would be great if you could share your process if you have one.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you, that’s exactly what I use for pink eye and it always clears right up! Bread making video it coming! I’m trying English muffins next week, if they turn out well I’ll share the recipe in that video! Thank you for watching!!
