Lime Pickles

I have been working twice a month at a assisted living home. They have a market place and I sell baked goods and jelly. Sometimes they put in request. How do I say no to a little old lady? So when they asked for lime pickles I went on a search. What I did not realize is that it would take two days to make them.

First you soak them for two hours, then rinse three times and then soak over night. Then cook for 30 minutes before canning them. My husband says they taste like a sweet bread and butter pickle. 

I may have to think about how much time it will take for a recipe before trying it.

Peaches

I  am so excited to stock my pantry for this winter. Wait, who am I kidding it will probably be eaten by fall. 

Jacob could not wait to taste a peach for me. Now that I know they taste okay I will can them for pies. 

Or maybe I will just let this cutie eat them all.

Zucchini Chips

My zucchini has grown out of control this year. So we are freezing it and canning it and making chips. I cannot keep the dehydrator going fast enough.

Even Jacob loves the chips. Some we eat plain and some we add seasoning to. 

Zucchini and squash chips

1 zucchini 

1 squash 

Slice thin

Spray dehydrator and lay out 

Depending upon how thick you slice them will determine how long they take. I normally put mine in before bed and they are ready by morning.

Homemade Pizza

We love pizza. Seriously I could eat it several times a week. But man oh man is it expensive. We love to make pizza at home. Everyone can choose what toppings they want. 

What food do you enjoy making at home instead of buying from a store?
