Weekly Poll

Its Christmas time, Brian’s in sales and I am finishing my degree so needless to say money is tight right now. Anyway we don’t get to eat out much cause its just one of those things that goes first when you are on a budget and Jonas isn’t all that pleasant at resturants so I would say we eat out about 2 times at the most a month. This does not include chick-fil-a

For Kyla…

Soy bean tortillas

Ok like I said this is a family recipe and although they sound very weird I LOVE them and you may too.

Ingredients:

1 12oz bag of soy beans (this you have to get at a health food store)

chopped pickles

shredded cheese

mustard 

nutritional yeast (also at the health food store) this is not yeast that you use to make bread. They are yellow flakes that have TONS of vitamins and nutrients in them and can be sprinkled on all kinds of food. It sounds weird but it is yummy. 

flour tortillas

The soybeans need to be soaked in water overnight. Then you put them in the crockpot and cook them for about 9 hours on low. You can cook them in a pressure cooker but those things scare me so I find the crockpot to be a much safer option. Next, you just assemble the Tortilla, beans, cheese, pickles, mustard and yeast. Then, enjoy!

It was a thankful weekend!

We had a great thanksgiving weekend this year. Thursday was spent at my Mom’s house and Friday we had a get together with my husband’s side of the family. It is so funny how much the Holiday’s change when you get older and begin to add all kinds of new family members into the mix!

Anyway here are a couple of photos from our weekend of giving thanks:
