Rose Garden Recipes

I have decided to move this site, it is just taking up too much of my time to try and take care of two sites and three blogs. So I'm putting everything in one place.

"I'm posting this to let you know about this program.

The other day, I was searching on wal-mart's web site and I gave myself a "V-8" pop on the forehead. I then went to BigCrumbs and went to wal-marts web site and found what I was looking for. Got it, and made some cash in doing so. It's GREAT,  It's 100%  FREE and gives us automatic cash back at places like eBay, Old Navy, Best Buy, and Gap, Wal*Mart, and a whole lot more."

BigCrumbs  allows us to:

    -Get cash back on purchases from top retailers.
    -Earn cash on purchases made by people we refer.

There's no spam or hidden catches. The site has been around for over two years and members have earned cash back and referral commissions on millions of dollars in purchases.

Tired of the same ol thing? Don't be afraid of trying something new. Here's a new twist on chili, when you add the last item, dice up a few potatoes and put them in. They'll enhance the flavor of the chili. A friend of mine showed me this trick a few years back and everyone just raves about it whenever I add potatoes to my chili. Let your imagination sour when it comes to preparing warm hardy meals for your family. It'll warm them up, and give you that warm fuzzy feeling knowing they are eating healthy homemade meals.

Don't you just love sitting down to a "hot" bowl of good homemade chili on a cold winters day? I sure do, and so does my family. I start it one of two ways. Sometimes I let the beans soak over night, or I quick soak them early in the morning. Either way, it's yummy. After that I get the been to cooking, after a few hours, I add tomato juice (organic of course) I fry up some ground beef, drain it, than add it. Another hour, I chop up a medium onion and add it. I add chili powder to taste. I add two cans of dices tomatoes. By the evening meal it's yummy. Sometimes I add chopped veggies for a change of pace. But I generally save the veggies for my homemade chicken and vegetable soup and beef stew. Not only does hot soups warm the body, but it gives your family that unspoken message that you love them enough to make something for them, that consist of more then just opening a can and warming it up. ;) Chow

This salad was given to me by my Daughter -in-Law, and I thought I'd pass it onto you.

Mix together

•       1 tsp Mrs Dash Original Blend
•       2 Tbsp olive oil
•       2 tsp cider vinegar
•        1 tsp sugar

Toss with 3 cups of fresh greens

The original recipe calls for half a teaspoon of sugar but we put in a whole teaspoon.  Everyone likes it better that way.  We just get a small bag of salad mix.  If we get a pound bad of salad mix we add another half of the recipe or double the recipe of the dressing.
