Earlier this week, chicken breasts were on a really good sale, so I bought a few packages, and decided to can them. I have done this once before, and it is surprisingly easy. I just boiled the chicken in my new giant stock pot, and then I skinned and pulled the chicken off the bone. Stuffed it in the sterilized jars, and filled them with water (last time I used broth instead of water). Then I took them over to my sister-in-laws, and used her pressure canner to seal on the lids. I have used the chicken to make Tortilla soup, Enchiladas, Stir-fry, chimichangas, and pretty much anything else that chicken is good in. It makes life a lot easier... not to mention I am trying to follow the prophets counsel to build up my food storage.
WHAT's for Dinner??? Adin Stew!!! Yum Yum!
New Crocheting project I decided to try something a little new and different - I made a Lion! It took me a little while, but it really wasn't too hard! I had a lot of fun making it, and I think Adin really likes it too!!!
ok, I have to admit, the chicken thing looks scary in a jar but it's a great idea to make things quick :) Very cute lion! Adin in the stock pot is hilarious! Ninz
My name is Katrina Parry. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Miah, for three years now. We just had our first baby boy, Adin, in July. We are excited to begin this new adventure together. I am the fifth of seven children in my family, and Miah is the last of nine in his. Family is probably the most important thing in our lives, which is why I have begun this blog- to keep in touch.
