Inspired Action Cooking – Breakfast Quesadillas!

categories: Recipes

We are so excited to be reaping the benefits of our new life living on a farm. Its so amazing to be able to get fresh ingredients that you know the energy put into their creation! Yesterday morning, in my excitement, I pulled together these breakfast quesadillas and wow – I’m in love! 🙂

Yum!

1 – 3 Gathered eggs from our beautiful free range chickens

2 – Freshly picked lettuce from our garden

3 – 1 freshly ripened tomato from our garden

4 – ground turkey sausage

5 – homemade salsa

6 – Mexican corn tortillas from the store 😉

7 – Blueberries from local farm

Instructions:

Brown the sausage in a medium sized fry pan. When the pink is nearly gone, add salsa. Stir in and simmer. Move the mixture to the side of the pan. Add 3 eggs and season to your liking. Scramble the eggs in the pan but wait until cooked before mixing with other side of turkey mixture. When eggs are done, mix with turkey mixture.

Heat the tortillas in the microwave for 20 secs so they don’t break when folded. Add 2 tablespoons of mixture to the middle of the tortilla. Top with cheese and fold in half. Grill in a warmed up pan with olive oil until brown on both sides and cheese is melted. The rest is history!

Heart Sushi

categories: Recipes, Super Easy Holiday Creations

My sushi creations continue – this time with real yummy sushi! I was inspired to create something extra special for Valentine’s day this year, and what’s more perfect than strawberries, which are naturally a heart shape on the inside. It was a little tricky to roll, and you have to make sure to set the strawberry correctly in the roll in order for it to cut like a heart. When I make this again, I will trim off some sides of the strawberry so its not so big, which makes it a little hard to manage during the rolling.

But my kids loved it and at them all!

Super Easy Halloween Party Ideas

categories: Arts & Crafts, Halloween, Recipes, Super Easy Holiday Creations

We enjoyed decorating and creating fun recipes for our annual Halloween party! This year’s theme was “So Simply Fun It’s Scary” which we setup by our pool, and included a fog machine, star show lights, and a great time for kids young and old! Check out some of our highlights:

: Gel window clings from the dollar store add a nice touch to any Halloween Party. I edited a stylistic photo of our doorway with a free software program called Pixlr.

: Witches’ broomsticks and hats are easily created with peanut butter cups, preztels, cookies and kisses. We stuck the kisses onto the cookies with green frosting.

: Party favors displayed nicely in Halloween Treat bags. We sectioned out into Adults and Kids for special prizes.

: A pan of chocolate graham crackers, topped with melted white chocolate and sprinkled with Halloween Candy goodies. Break apart in sections for delicious munching!

: A great way to recycle your empty milk cartons! We decorated with ghost and jackolatern faces, filled with water and a glow stick to make them come alive. We lined up our driveway with these fun creations!

: Our pool was lit up with an awesome light show, made possible by a gadget called Star Shower Laser Light.

: Wrap up hot dogs in crossaint dough and bake. Add mustard eyes at the end for cute lil mummy delights!

: Eye ball pudding parfaits. Yum!

: Decorate a table with your milk carton lights.

: We spread fake spider webs around the house and added paper spiders. Photo edited with Pixlr.
