Magic Mix Recipe

I was looking around my favorite webpages and came upon this recipe that can be used for so many different things. Useful recipes can be found at

http://everydayfoodstorage.net



The secret behind making MAGIC MIX: (Makes 5 Cups of Magic Mix)

Step 1:
You will need some sort of good mixer. Make sure you use beaters when making the mix as shown above. If you don’t have a good mixer, start calling around…get together with a friend and make some…it is SOOOO worth it!

Step 2:
Ingredients:2 1/3 C. Powdered Milk
1 C. All Purpose Flour (Yes, use All Purpose)
1 C. (2 sticks) Margarine (***HAS TO BE REAL MARGARINE, NOT SPREAD***) or Butter, at room temperature
Combine dry milk, flour and margarine/butter into a large bowl.

Step 3:
Mix until it looks like corn meal. (You may want to start off slow and work up to the fastest setting so that it doesn’t blow powder all over)

Step 4:
Keep mix tightly covered in the refrigerator. (note: keep your #10 cans for just such a purpose! They are 50 cents and work great for storing home made mixes)

Inexpensive HEALTHY popcicles

So I just finished a little venture in the kitchen when I decided to make some yummpy fruit and milk popcicles. My little guy loves it when I stick a little cup of yogurt in the freezeer with a stick so Ithought I might try to make some of my own and save a little.

Creamy Berry Popcicles

1/2 cup Grape Juice (or any dark juice- ie: blueberry, cranberry, etc...)
1/4 cup 1 % milk (or for milk allergies, you can use plain yogurt or lactose free)
1 handful frozen raspberries
1 tsp wheat germ
1 tsp soluble fiber powder
1 Tbsp protein powder

Blend well in a blender until berries are broken up. Pour into popcicle trays. Add popcicle sticks. Freeze until solid and enjoy.

Back to Updating

Hello Followers!
I am soooo sorry that I haven't posted in nearly a year. I have been pregnant, had a baby and chased a toddler in that time. Good news is that I will be better at regularly updating the blog now with more that just recipes. I have recently developed a passion for couponing and saving money with anything and everything, so you will be seeing more links to the pages and sites that I use as well as money saving recipes for food favorites. I will be putting exercises on here to help keep all of us healthy and happy. I don't mean those EXTREME exercises, but more relaxing and mommy friendly/ time friendly routines. Another new addition will be activities to do with young kids to teach them new things and be more involoved. I hope that I will be able to get feedback and comments to help run things better on here!
