Po-Tay-Toes

boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew.

i love potatoes.  and since their gluten free its something that i can eat as much of as i like.  i made a whole bunch tonight to go with our every morning eggs, and they turned out so perfectly that i just have to share


Po-Tay-Toes

5 lb bag of potatoes
1 large onion
1/2 c veg oil
Pink Hemylaian Salt
Fresh cracked Pepper
Thyme
Garlic powder
 (honestly, i didn't measure the spices, just do it to taste, i LOVE thyme, so this has a lot in it)

wash and cube the potatoes, chop the onion, pour the spices in the oil, mix up, and dump over the potato/onion.  mix every thing up and put on 2 baking sheets in a 350 oven for 30 minutes.  check after 30 to see if they need a little more time.

these are so wonderful and it makes a lot, so this can be stretched out over several meals, a bunch of breakfasts and probably a dinner or two.

enjoy!

developing a healthy little complex

so ive been reading lables, doing research, planing gardens (yes, plural) all in my attempt to put as little fake food and unpronouncable CRAP in my system as possible.

oartmeal for every brecky, home made from scratch fare each lunch and as many dinners as i can. ive cooked my little heart out. ive stayed up late packing lunches for work the next day. all in all, ive done everythimg that time, bugget, and sanity will allow.

i even made my own tarter sauce people. delish, btw.

and i have to say, its becoming routine. i dint crave jimmy johns whan everyone else in the office is getting it. and eating REAL food is starting to change my palate. real food tastes better, once you detox your taste buds.

it hasnt all been smooth sailing. last nights fish n chips was a 50/50. processed walmart fish sticks, pared with steak fries that went from potato to plate after a dip in boiling oil. complete with self made seasoning.

but the more i practice what i preach, the easier it gets. would help if i would remember to put stuff on the list when i run out. like the honey i need to make granola...
