Asparagus Fries from Harvest Your Health Bundle Sale

Yum


NOTE: This offer is no longer available.

If you saw my posts on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, you know that I am helping promote the 'Harvest You Health' bundle sale.  I thought it would be fun to share a couple of recipes and pointers from some of the books.  Today's recipe is Asparagus Fries  from The Veggie Book: How to Pick, Prepare and Plate by Sara Shay, Danielle Tate, and Debra Worth.  The Veggie Book helps you turn the veggies you want to serve into veggies they want to eat.  It features 10+ veggies in over 150 pages of recipes, nutrition, and storage information for veggies many of us grew up eating out of a can.

Asparagus Fries from The Veggie Book
10-12 asparagus spears
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup bread crumbs (use GF)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon parsley

Trim off the root end of your asparagus and cut each spear in half.  If you have spears that are thicker than others you may want to cut them in half length-wise to ensure even cooking.  Place eggs, beaten in a small bowl.  In a separate bowl or plate mix together your salt, pepper, parsley, and breadcrumbs together.  Dip spears into egg mixture and then breadcrumbs. Place on greased pan and bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes until desired tenderness is reached.

 There are some fantastic dipping sauces (orange mayo dipping sauce and herb dipping sauce) in the book to serve with the asparagus fries, so go check it out!

Homemade Lip Balm using Essential Oils (more tips from Harvest Your Health Bundle Sale)

Yum

NOTE: This offer is no longer available.

 If you saw my post on Monday and the other one on Wednesday, you know that I am helping promote the 'Harvest You Health' bundle sale.  I thought it would be fun to share a couple of recipes and pointers from some of the books.  Today I wanted to share a little bit from some of the non-cookbook ebooks.  If you follow my blog at all, you know my love for essential oils.  I've been on this path toward natural living, and I still have a ways to go.  Well, there are quite a few books I'm so excited about, that will help me on my journey, these include: Salve made Simple, My Buttered Life (4 books total), Natural Cleaning, Simple Scrubs to Make & Give, Homemade Health and Beauty, and The Holistic Mama's Guide to Homemade Skin Care.  It's a lot of helpful books, isn't it?  I now have so many ideas for shampoos, deodorants, face cleansers, lip balms, salves for wounds, and more.  To say I'm excited about these books is an understatement.

I thought I'd share one recipe from My Buttered Life: Gift Edition by Renee Harris, lip balm. It's simple and would make a fantastic gift or to just have on hand for those winter months, I know my family goes through a lot of lip balm in the winter, so I'm very happy I now have this recipe on hand. She also has a youtube video on how to make the lip balm:



Flavored Lip Balm
by Renee Harris

1 oz Beeswax
1 oz Shea butter
1 oz coconut oil (a little more during cooler months)
3/4 teaspoon essential oil of choice
18-20 lip balm tubes

Place beeswax, shea butter, and coconut oil in double boiler.

Melt and stir with a wooden skewer.  Drop a small amount for testing on foil or wax paper. Once cool, test on lips.  If it's difficult to apply to lips, melt in a bit more coconut oil and repeat this step.

Remove from heat, wait a few minutes, and add essential oil(s).

 Stir with wooden skewer and then drop liquid into lip balm tubes using a medicine dropper.

Maple Cinnamon Pecan Ice Cream and an Amazing eBook Sale

Yum


NOTE: This offer is no longer available.

If you saw my post  on Monday, you know that I am helping promote the 'Harvest You Health' bundle sale.  I thought it would be fun to share a couple of recipes and pointers from some of the books.  Today's recipe is Maple Cinnamon Pecan Ice Cream from Just Making Ice Cream by Marillyn Beard.


3 cups whole milk or cream (I would use coconut milk to make it dairy-free)
1/2 cup maple syrup
3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 Tbsp. arrowroot powder
1 Tbsp. vanilla
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
3/4 cup soaked & dehydrated pecans, chopped
pinch of salt

Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Pour into your ice cream maker and proceed according to instructions.

If you do not have an ice cream maker... simply pour into a plastic sealed container and put in your freezer. When completely frozen, simply chopped it up and put in your blender. Blend till creamy.
