Dehydrating food works don't give up..😊..cookie

Ok. Ok last one for tonight.
You can also spread vegemite on the cheese
Or promite..depending on your tastes.
Miss 9 loves promite on cheese.
Then dehydrate the cheese.
Tastes great....and you get the extra vitamins
From the spread with the calcium.....kinda like sneaky veg. Lol
Miss 9 doesn't like vegemite cheese slices... And her fav cheese
Is mercy valley ploughmans cheese.
Ok. Now. Nite nite, 😴 kind regards..😊.. Cookie

Oh hey..Peter
Thanks for that idea about dehydrating sauce.
I did it with jar sauce and it turned out great.
I also cut it into large pieces and put baking paper
In between...works out a lot easier than blitzing
It all the time....a whole lot messier.
So a huge thank you to peter 😊👏👌👍🌻
Kind regards to everyone..😊🌻..cookie

Heartburn is caused by not enough stomach acid. The food is not being digested quick enough and refluxes back up which weakens the valve between the stomach and esophagus. You can take hydrochloric acid supplements to aide in digestion. As we age the levels of stomach acid decline and the incidence of reflux increases and taking anti acids can make the issue worse. Low stomach acid can cause a bacterial overgrowth in the stomach as well as allowing the bacteria that causes ulcers, Helicobacter pylori, to thrive!

Hey everyone,😊.
So last night I made a beef stew. Just your basic beef stew.
It was really lovely. Today with the left overs I am going to dehydrate it.
I made a huge pot so I would have loads of left overs. Should
Be enough in there for at least 10 meals.
I used knoss brand potato powder that my daughter had purchased through
PFD...it's what upset my tummy. The stew I made a thousand times so I knew
It wasn't that...the only thing that was different was the potato. I was too lazy to
Boil some spuds..... Should have known better. But anyways at least I know now. Lol
I am going to boil some beef mince later for prepping.
You boil it then rinse it off with hot water. Then boil a bit longer..rinse it off again with boiling water
To remove all the fat...then I add diced onion...raw ..and a gravy mix...already made...then
I thoroughly mix it all together and then I put it on my
Plastic tray liners that I made out of the really thin chopping up mats you can get in red dot or most supermarkets.
Then I set my dehydrator to 70 degrees for a minimum of 12 hours. Some times it takes less.
Then I open up 2 cans of lentils...drain and rinse well..and set them out of my mesh mats to dehydrate. 50 degrees for
About 8 hours.

When their all dry I mix the lentil and beef gravy mix together.....that's the base now to my potatoe top pie.
Then when your ready to use it. Empty into a air tight container...pour boiling water over the meat mix..about 2cm about
The meat..then put the lid on and let the water do its job. 😊. Lol if you have a tea cozy now would be a good time to use it.
Put the container of meat inside the cozy........it does work...have done it many times.
While that's rehydrating...start doing the instant mash.
Boil water..add to mash mix in a bowl..stir through thoroughly until it is the consistency of mash potato.
Add some ghee..marg..or butter..salt and pepper to taste.
Then when the meat is ready. Add the potato to the top of the meat....and bake..if you have the facility to bake it with.
As always in a SHTF situation you might not. If not just serve and eat.
I especially like the dehydrated cheese sprinkled on top.

It doesn't take long to make...rehydrate...it's a quick easy meal. The reason for the lentils is to add some extra protein.
You can also add dehydrated veggies to the dry meat mix...or maybe some mushrooms.

Hope this inspires you to have a go.
Prep with all your heart. Kind regards..😊..cokkie

I just got home from shopping. Various shops various reason ending in the supermarket.
Each person I greeted happily..hi how are you..and all I got in return was a grunt.
How rude is that..what ever happened to...hi how are you...are you well..please..thank you
And God forbid we hold our breaths on receiving a....have a nice day.
Like seriously. Have we evolved that much that everyone can forget basic manners.

It's wrong...any wonder we live in an angry world.

I can remember being on checkout and every week I had to serve this one woman.
She was rude. Nasty. Didn't matter how nice you were to her she was a b&$@h.
So 10 minutes left in my last shift and she comes through my check out.
I tried my hardest for the last time...and she was still the same.
I exploded...went right off my tit at her. Yelled at her and how rude she was and this I'm so very
Privileged to serve a @@@@ like her and that every week at the same time I was going to come
Down town and stalk her......she was so shocked. She couldn't believe someone would speak to
Her like that...both the service supervisors dragged me away from my checkout...I yelled back at them.
So what are you gonna do...sack me..by this time I had less than 3 minutes of my final shift..
Needless say invented big time. I would never have exploded like that..hope she learns something from this.
A simple smile..nod of the head..please or thank you..is it really that hard to do.

Sorry for unloading. Hope you all have a better day than me.
Kind regards to all..😌..cookie

Hi everyone,
Well today's prepping was great. How was your prepping day?
I finally almost have my dinning room back.
I have been doing a rotation and stock take on all our prepping items.
So this means using my dinning room.
Gosh we have a lot. Lol but you know for your self a lot is never enough.
I bought some more items for the first aid....and some lady's products.
Almost have enough for 10 ladies for a year....yup that's a lot.
We now have a lot of mosquito coils. I have citronella plants growing really
Well out at out little place.
Hope you have all had a productive day...remember even just an extra pack of pain killers
All helps.
Enjoy your evening..kind regards..😊..cookie

Hi everyone.
When I decided that we should prep I got my self an exercise book.
I named it......all for one....lol you know..lol the musketeers
In it put all our prepping ideas. We watched every doomsday prepping
Dvd we could find. I spoke to preppers....I did a lot of home work before we actually started.
I wrote a list for the first aid room. And slowly we r defiantly filling it up. The only thing I can't
Afford at the moment is a defribalator...we bit expensive. We also looked into herbal medicine.
For when we can't get the pills we need. That was very interesting. So we now stock a lot
Of different herbs I would never have thought of. Then came the brewing. Lol we r still brewing.
It's working out great. Very strong....phew knock ya socks off, lol
Have done canning...I'm not very good at that. Needless to say dehydrating is my thing...and I have
A lot to do so the power better not go off yet. Same as vacuuming everything. I have canned goods.
I just prefer dehydrated. I know..I know.. It's useless if you haven't got water.
Where our little place is...there is a stream that has water in it 80% of the time. We have a damn..we have
10x1000 litre water pods and a huge tank that's full. So as far as water were sitting pretty at the moment.
Plus dad put down a couple of bores on the property as well.
My dad is a water diviner....a skill we have all been taught.
Everything we need is out there...just not enough food.
We also have a hydroponics vegetable setup...nope sorry guys....vegetables only. Lol
So this winter I want to up grade the chook pen so it has an empty bay either side of it for rotation.
I also want to work on the fencing...we r getting a couple of Dorpa sheep. Looking forwards to that.
