I am 78 yrs old. Been making mixes like these since I was 30. They are healthier because far less preservatives in them. It became a way of life. My husband worked in a fa tory in city. At home he had large garden and sm barn full of animals. From 5 acres we grew moat of our meat, veg and fruit. Plus eggs, milk. Neither of us has any regrets. It was a good life.

You are 100% correct! My late husband was diagnosed in early 2018 with stage four kidney cancer in both kidneys and given 3-6 months to live. Through lots of reading and research I found cancer grows best with artificial and heavy processed enriched foods and sugar, so I changed everything I could in our diet and daily routine to help preserve life. I did end up losing him in 2023 but look at the years I had that they couldn’t explain

This is right down my alley. Maple sugar is easy to make and a whole lot cheaper. Recipe 2c. Pure maple syrup Pour the maple into a medium pot, turn the heat to medium high and boil about 18 minutes DO NOT STIR IT while it is cooking or it will not cook correctly. If you have a candy thermometer cook until it reached 255-265 degrees. Pour the hot mix into your mixer and turn it on to low. Be very careful this mix is super hot. Turn the mixer to high when you can and let it go for a few minutes. It will change from hot liquid to a powdered mix in a few minutes. Run it though a sifter to get out the larger pieces. Store in a jar longer term.

I appreciate that you shared this information. Tried a batch. Really needed a little salt. I would put in blender (maybe 1/4 teaspoon) with the oats to make sure it gets well distributed. I personally use 1/3 C of mix and 2/3 C water. Then I micro wave on high for 1 and 1/2 minutes - the extra time gives the dried fruit a better chance of rehydrating. 😃😃😃😃😃

I was thinking I might make up a batch of the three and give as additional gift for Christmas. Today I made the chicken rice a Roni for a side dish along with chicken fajitas. It turned out fantastic my opinion it was better than the store bought another delicious mix that could be given as an extra little gift. Thank s again.

I love oatmeal and you have shared some great ideas. I dont mix mine ahead because I found that a lot of the add ins are not easy to find or cost effective in dehydrated form. There are some good ones though i suppose and Walmart has most of these...which is accessible to most people. Peanut butter powder, choc milk mix, powdered coffee creamers, cinnamin, pumpkin pie spice, choc chips, cloves, nuts and seeds, nutmeg, any dried or freeze dried fruits work well in this application you have shared. You could also think about protein powder and all those hippy dippy things like hemp and chia seeds. My method is whole rolled oats. I find them a better texture and dont really take much more time. Steel cut i think will take a lot more time. Anyway you can cook oats in fruit juice! I keep a can of frozen apple juice concentrate on hand for oatmeal. Blop out what i need and dilute, save the rest. You could do pomegranate or cranberry, any fruit or juice blend you like. You could also add liquid coffee creamer for those bakery flavors in your oatmeal. This is best added to mostly water. You can peanut butter, coffee syrups, pancake or maple syrup, anything from the spice cabinet, frozen fruit or any traditional ice cream or smoothie ingredients, toppings, heavy cream. Also for your consideration any oatmeal can be done overnight style. Mix it hours before and refrigerate to soak the oats. Reheat to eat. Variations: add greek vanilla yogurt to any recipe and keep in the fridge to snack on cold. It tastes like cookie dough. And the yogurt gives it a few days of staying power in the fridge. You could eat this warmed up as well. You can also make overnight oats in the crockpot.

Hey Tammy, Thank You for doing this video. Anything that can help us to save money, is a good investment. I was at the commissary a few days ago to buy everything I needed to make these oatmeal recipes. I really like oatmeal, so now I'm ready for snow and cold winter days. There was a lady at the store who started laughing at me and making fun of me for buying the oatmeal, dry powder milk, etc. when I told her what my plans were. I just ignored her. I think that you are awesome and so inspiring to do meal preps. Thank you! And keep up the good work! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

The reason you couldn't shake the pecans to mix is physics. The smaller particles will always sink to the bottom because there is so much room between the pecans. You could shake it all day and they'd never mix in. Matter of fact, if you kept shaking for a while, the powdered oats and milk would sink to the very bottom, you'd have a layer of quick oats, and then the pecans on top.

How many servings are in each recipe?
@TalesFromAnEmptyNest
@TalesFromAnEmptyNest 21 күн бұрын
Each jar is about 3 cups. Each serving is 1/2 cup, so it is about 6 servings per jar🙂

I stir to incorporate with each ingredient too lol. I use a large whisk to stir dry ingredients, it helps incorporate better imo. Thanks for these recipes (I usually do various nuts or raisins). That apple looks yummy!

I absolutely love your channel! What great information. I ordered the Knorr powdered tomatoes from Amazon. When it arrived, the label was different from the on line picture. This was GMO which I'm not a fan of. Can you tell me where you got what you used for the rice a roni Spanish rice batch. I watch all of your videos, and always learn some great tips! Thank you so much for everything!!
