This week is going to be very different. This week is Vacation Bible School Week! We love VBS!

Our church feeds everyone (adults included) before all the fun starts. So I don’t have to cook supper all week!

I will be serving salad to everyone before they leave. I have one daughter who won’t eat any processed food So I’ll have chicken to put on her salad.

I plan on trying to get a lot of food made for the freezer this week. Since I no cook week, I might as well use that time to stock the freezer.

So I have no menu this week. But here are a few of the things I hope to stock the freezer with this week.

Homemade Baked Beans

Homemade Tortillas

BBQ Sauce

Diced Onions

Carmelized Onions

Some kind of cookies

and a few gluten free goodies for me

I’m sitting here thinking about cooking. Since I don’t feel well enough today to actually do any cooking, I’m planning.

Can I call this post a kitchen planning session so I can feel productive? lol

I have been wanting to try making some gluten free oatmeal bread for a couple of weeks now. I want to use whole oatmeal, as well as oat flour. Using little to no rice flour. I want to use yeast so I can get a nice rise to the bread. I’m envisioning a nice, soft, flavorful bread that I can use for anything. Toast, sandwiches, etc.

Is that too much to ask?  Did you know that toast smells incredibly awesome when you can’t eat it?  I guess that goes for anything you can’t eat.  I guess the food is always better on the other side of the table…..

Has anyone ever made oatmeal bread before? Got any tips or recipes to share?

 

Even though I don’t feel well enough to cook, I still have to make supper.  According to my menu, we’re having spaghetti with meat sauce tonight. I already took the cooked hamburger out of the freezer. Such a time saver! I also pulled out a bag of frozen shredded zucchini from our garden last year to put in the sauce. So I only have to dump the meat, zucchini, tomato sauce and some seasonings into a pan for sauce. Only a few minutes more than opening a jar, and so much better! Pasta is easy enough to cook. Of course, I have to make two kinds. GF for me and regular for everyone else.

Except tonight, I think I’ll get one of my sous chefs to cook.  🙂
