Kraft Foods Website

I didn't know if everyone knows this but http://www.kraftrecipes.com/ lets you put in up to three ingredients and it will search all their recipes using those three. I think, Taylor, you may have mentioned that to me before. I hadn't tried it till today though. I was looking for some new recipes to try out (I get bored with recipes fast) and typed in some stuff I have on hand. What I didn't know is that Kraft also has recipes that are mix-and-match. I know that sounds a little confusing but when you click on one of these recipes, three columns will come up and it will show you different ways to change up a basic recipe. These columns usually include meats, sauces, and veggies. You get like 3 recipes in one! I thought that was pretty cool and quite a time saver! Great for those pantry challenge days ;)

Random Tips :)

I was at the grocery store yesterday getting some ingredients for a couple dishes I was making for a friend who just had a baby and I needed some sesame seeds. I accidentally found some in the Asian section that were $2.99. I have never bought sesame seeds before so I was unsure if this was a good price. Well, it turns out it was a steal :) I checked the area with the spices and they had a few different brands ranging from $5.99 to $8.99!!! So, just thought I would pass it along...if you ever need sesame seeds check the Asian section. They are the same thing and taste the same and are WAY cheaper!

Another random tip; when your baby starts to prefer self feeding and you have been making all your own baby food try oven roasting all the old stand by veggies. My little guy is almost 10 months old and loves to feed himself. He would rather not eat off a spoon. So, I peeled and diced up some potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips, rutabaga, and butternut squash then tossed them with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt and roasted them at 425 for about 15 minutes. He loves them! I froze the extras in a single layer and then stored them in zip bags. Now when he can't eat enough from what we are having from dinner I can toss a few cubes into the microwave and he can feed himself with joy! I also keep a stash of frozen peas, carrots, corn and cauliflower too.


Hope you enjoyed these random tips, and that you all had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
