SUMMER TIME SAVERS

JULY 27, 2012 - SUMMER TIME SAVERS

There is so much to do over the summer, and finding time to get supper on the table, or even lunch is almost impossible some days.  Here are some time savers that may help you get the family taken care of and still give yourself time to rest!

Meatloaf Muffins:  Make meatloaf in your usual manner, but instead of a loaf...portion it out into muffin cups!  You only have to bake 20 minutes at 450 degrees!



Slow cooker bread:  This one is not mine...head to their website!  http://www.artisanbreadinfive.com/2012/05/29/crock-pot-bread-baking-fast-bread-in-a-slow-cooker



Donuts...the easy way!  Just take a package of bisquits and cut the hole! You can fry them up and sugar or ice yourself...in a short time for so much less!

Don't get the "flaky" style...it won't work well.




The grease should be medium...these can burn on the outside and be raw on the inside-yuck!







I use powdered sugar, regular sugar, and once I even made my own chocolate frosting!  You should have seen my husband stand there and sop it up!










Yummy, yummy Lasagna cups!    http://www.laurenslatest.com/lasagna-cups/  Trying this one on the weekend!              (Update:  I tried this, and while the family loved, I was not a big fan of the undercooked noodles...may need to adjust.)

There are a gazillion time saving ideas online...these are just a few of my faves!  Enjoy!
