It looks like Mercy's chemo will start early next week, so I am in high gear preparing all this food! I am so glad God gave me warning enough to do this, and it HAPPENED to occur the day before chicken butchering day. Think He has it all in His plan?!?! Actually as I look back over the past 6 months or so, He has been preparing me and my family for this by leading us to make decisions which will make this next season in our lives much easier. So what did I do yesterday? (If you didn't read Day 1, please read that first so you know where I was at the beginning of the morning!) Also, you may want to subscribe to my RSS so you get updated on the rest of the week's cooking! - 2 Quart Bags of Teriyaki Chicken. This base will be added to some stir fried veges and put over rice. - 3 Casseroles of Chicken Enchiladas. (Plus another for dinner last night). - 2 Gallon Bags Chicken Divan (Also called Broccoli Chicken). This can be served over rice or noodles. - 3 Gallon Bags "Crunchy Chicken" . This has uncooked rice in the mix, so it is a full meal. - 2 Gallon Bags Ranch Chicken. These can be served over rice or noodles too. So out of 14 chickens (two were tough roosters, so really it was mostly 12 chickens), I got 13 dinners. I also used 5 pounds of ground beef to make: - 2 meatloaves. - 6 Hamburger patties. (We'll add hot dogs for the younger children.) I had bought the ground beef straight from the store because we have our own cow butchered and the meat comes to us frozen. So I can thaw it, but it has to be cooked before I can freeze it again. The stuff from the store is thawed, so I will sometimes buy it and make up the meatloaves. Today I am hoping to make a bunch of muffins, some pancakes and waffles, and a big batch of homemade bisquick, some instant oatmeal mix, some granola, and can the chicken broth. Maybe also make some sweet breads. The more we can have made ahead for breakfast, the easier the day goes. Of course these children always seem to need to be fed three times a day even though I am busy, so we'll have to figure something out for that too.  |
