PHILADELPHIA Cooking Creme

PHILADELPHIA Cooking Creme

This is so simple to use and ads such creamy flavor to our meals. I freeze them until I use them to cook. I always keep one in the fridge for other uses (snacks - crackers, etc). Have you tried this yet? What's your absolute favorite flavor? Would you share a recipe you use with this product??

Live Green - Get Beautiful Wood Furniture With This Green Alternative

Basic Polishing Cream Waxing Formula
- 4 ounces oil (2 1/2 ounces olive oil or jojoba, 1 1/2 ounces coconut oil)
- 1 ounce beeswax
- 1 ounce carnauba wax
- 4 ounces distilled water
Melt the oils and waxes in a double boiler over medium heat. Remove from the heat, pour in the water, and mix with a hand mixer until thick and creamy. Dab some cream onto a soft cotton rag and rub into the furniture. Buff and polish until the oils are well worked into the wood. Store in a Mason Jar in the pantry for 6 months to a year.
Now you’ll no longer have to choose between beautiful wood furniture and a beautiful healthy world. You can have both.

Lazy Day Stew

I found this recipe on Ring Around the Rosies. I'm really excited about it because it uses fresh vegetables, a bag of beans (canned have so much sodium), and is so simple to make! This recipe is for 2-gallon size ziplock bags to freeze for later, or cook one now and freeze the other for later. I love that this helps take prep work out of a day when I have fewer spoons!

Lazy Day Stew
4lb cubed stewing beef
4 cups baby carrots
4 cups baby red potatoes (cut in half)
2 medium onions, chopped
10 oz package dried lima beans (optional)
2 cups celery, chopped
4 tsp quick-cooking tapioca
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 15 oz can tomato sauce (1/2 in each bag) - low sodium
2 cup water
2 Tbs brown sugar

Follow directions above, and put everything into two one gallon freezer bags, shake it up, seal, label and put in the freezer. Instructions for Bag: Cook on low 8 hours, Eat as a soup, or serve over hot noodles or rice. She adds a little bit of shredded cheese on top.
