This is probably one of the easiest recipes I am going to share with you. It is only 3 ingredients…super super easy to make and perfect for a weeknight family after school dinner….I made this last night and it was a hit!!! I served it with rice but I think egg noodles would be the perfect side (this was my younger daughter’s suggestion and I could not agree more!!!!!). Bon Appetit!!!

I keep reading about the benefits of Pink Himalayan Sea Salt. I have decided to use it from now on in all my recipes. There are so many reasons to switch to this salt. It has so many health benefits. It re-mineralizes the body with important minerals and 84 trace elements such as Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium and Copper and Iron (the high iron content give the salt its pink color) . All essential to health and well being.

Happy Martin Luther King day!!!! I have been trying to sit down all day to write this post but the day really got away from me. I am so excited about today’s book club choice. It has been on my list for a while and I am just getting around to reading it, The Last Mrs Parrish: A Novel by Liv Constantine. I am telling you this is just what we need for these dreary, cold January days!!!! It has been called spellbinding, Mr Riplyesque, and there is a shocking twist at the end!!! Woo Hoo!!!!! Here is the summary:
Today I went with a group of readers to see the “once in a lifetime” Michelangelo 6 room exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We hired curator, Emily McElwreath of of Sidel and McElwreath to give us a tour of the incredible pieces that depict Michelangelo as a supreme draftsman and designer. Emily explained to us that this show was 10 years in the making. All of the pieces are from 54 private collections throughout the US and Europe. They even needed approval from the Queen to show some of the featured works. Because of the age of the pieces, the exhibit is under dim lighting and after this all of the art will “rest’ in storage for 3 years. Most of these drawings and sculpture have never been on display. There is a reproduction of the Sistine Chapel, with the actual drawings of the images prior to them being painted. This was our favorite part of the tour. We stayed in the Chapel room wayyyy tooo long in awe of how amazing it was. The exhibition runs until, February 12th…run don’t walk!!!!! Maybe you will see me there because I am definitely going again!!!!!
Around here we make tons of soup for the long cold winter days. I recently saw an article about making homemade bread and how easy it was and how well it pairs with a bowl of winter soup. I did some research and found a really easy recipe for making homemade bread. Just a few ingredients, a bread pan and hot oven and voila!!! Last weekend my son had a bunch of college friends come and stay with us. We had just made 2 loaves of this bread. OMG!! They could not get enough…they LOVED it. I did feel a little like Little House on the Prairie and that we might be churning our own butter next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HA!!! But honestly, the bread was a total winner!!!! Give it a try this weekend!!! Bon Appetit!!!!!!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
- 2-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 6-1/4 to 6-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the sugar, salt, oil and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 8-10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough in half. Shape each into a loaf. Place in two greased 9×5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, 30-45 minutes.
Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and bread sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Yield: 2 loaves (16 slices each).
