About Products Selected

This site is designed with brand new cooks in mind. Because of that you will see a lot of items linked here. For an experienced cook it is easy to recognize what the difference between a pot, a sauce pan, a casserole, etc. means. But if you are brand new to the cooking from scratch idea it can be confusing. All products linked are meant to give you a clear idea of what kinds of items I am referring to. These items linked also represent brands that I am familiar with, that I have found to be high quality and I find them to be fairly priced and long lasting for regular use.

For pots and pans I prefer the quality of Circulon brand above higher priced brands and their longevity above lower priced brands. For glass bowls and bake ware I prefer Pyrex. For low priced kitchen ware I prefer Norpro. For smaller quantities of dried goods I prefer Bob's Red Mill, which I can find at all of my local stores. For larger quantities I prefer ordering from Barry Farm. I often use the bulk section at my stores as well. While it is certainly less expensive to make stock at home, it is far more convenient to purchase it. I like Pacific Natural Foods and Imagine Foods low sodium broths. These suggestions are designed to make your food preparation easier and affordable. You'll also be able to accurately duplicate the recipes on this site and the meals seen on Frugal Feeds Videos. Look for all of these products and kitchen items at your local stores or click on the links and it will take you to where you can buy them online. (Although many of the items will cost more with shipping than they will if you can find them at your local store).

Frugal Feeds | Raw Diet Day 34

Raw Diet Day 34:

A heavy frost developed overnight so I was eager to check on the the little seedlings. The fleece blankets are working very well and the seedlings are doing just fine. Several more sprouts came up over night as well.
This morning was the first morning in a few days that I didn't hear the turkey gobbling at the crack of dawn. I suspect he has moved on to a new neighborhood. Too bad really, it would have been neat to have a family of wild turkeys around.

For breakfast I had a juice of 1 braeburn apple, 2 carrots, a handful of parsley and an inch of ginger.

For lunch I had the berry and banana smoothie with blackberries, raspberries and cranberries and almond milk, almond butter and almond meal. It is very tasty and satisfying.

Dinner tonight will be a mixed sprout salad with red bell pepper and jicama, and the cup of peas, Tablespoon of hempseed and 1/2 cup of sunflower seeds.
