Grandma's "Poor Man's Meal" Recipe From The 1930's Kept A Lot Of Bellies Full For Cheap
This is a real recipe from the Great Depression Era, right from my own grandma's memory and recipe box. However, this recipe was not at all confined to just my family's recipe box. Thousands of families prepared and ate the Poorman's Meal during this time. The purpose of this meal was to be extremely cheap and filling, which is what people needed to survive in the 1930's. You had to be creative and think on your feet to keep your hungry household fed and happy. Learning to stretch food and ingredients became more of an artform and less of a chore. Let's take a look at the components that were combined to fill so many hungry bellies and why they worked.

Fruit Based Smoothies And Kiwi Fruit
Introduction Many years ago, because I am diabetic, a nurse told me I should not eat any fruit because it contains fructose and my diet should essentially consist of celery, carrots and turnips. When I mentioned this to the consultant they laughed and said we need some pleasure in life and that should include food, just eat them in moderation.

Make Your Own Pasta
I recently bought a pasta attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer and I have never enjoyed cooking so much. It might seem simple and silly--dried pasta in the store is fairly inexpensive and its a labor of love to mix up the dough and cut it into whatever type of pasta you're craving, but it truly has been so much fun. When I first began making my own pasta I mixed the dough by hand as most of the websites recommend (and rather, insist upon) but I've recently turned toward mixing the dough in my mixer and man-oh-man is that a time saver (and a muscle saver too). I just put the mixer on the first setting and let it slowly combine all the ingredients. I usually mix for ten minutes total or so, adding a little bit of water here and there if I think the ingredients aren't combining after a reasonable amount of time. It's super slick! I figure I'm using my mixer anyway with the pasta attachment, so there really isn't much of a reason not to use it for the dough creation process as well. Call me a cheater, whatever. I can handle it.

The Salad Experiment
The Idea I needed a salad dressing idea, and I needed it quickly. It was just around noon, and I had just set up my station to start prepping the salad for the evening meal. At 5 pm, we would open our doors to feed the community, and I looked inquisitively at unemptied grocery bags full of veggies and salad that needed to be washed, peeled, and chopped. How would I pull all of this together and incorporate the theme of the evening's meal?

Facebook Recipe in Action: Boston Cream Pie Cupcakes
Being an expat overseas can sometimes be difficult, especially when craving a tasty homemade treat! It's a struggle to find sweets or food from back home. Nothing tastes the same as Mom's cooking or something you found at the bakery in your small little town.
