Tightwad Tuesday
Posted in Tightwad Tuesday
Happy Tightwad Tuesday everyone!! If you'd like to join us in sharing a tightwaddy tip, please go see Mary over @ Canadagirl and join us!!
Ok. It's been a few weeks since I've had a tightwad tip so I'm excited about this one. I'm excited because I just stumbled upon it when I was making dinner last week!! How cool is that?!
I wanted to make Crockpot Italian Chicken for dinner, but I didn't have any Italian dressing. Well, I pulled out my trusty Pampered Chef Dressing Maker and...VOILA... recipe for Italian Dressing.
Here goes...
1/2 c white wine or balsamic vinegar (I didn't have either of these so I used what I had...apple cider vinegar. It was great!!)
1 c vegetable or olive oil (I only use olive oil)
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
2 pressed garlic cloves
1 Tbsp sugar
I put these together in this order in my 'mixer'...
Mixed it together and voila...
I have my own homemade Italian dressing!!! : }
It doesn't get much better than that!!! Oh, and dinner turned out fabulous! We had leftovers the next day and finished it off. ALL, let me stress ALL of us loved it!!
Enjoy!!

That looks so easy and I do have all the ingredients in the pantry. But how do you make the chicken?
I have been trying to reinstall my music. I have been unable to access the account, get a new password or talk with anyone to help. They did the same to my daughter. Very confusing! Anyway I enjoy yours. Just do not loose the code! ( that is what I did)

I don't know what I like more the homemade dressing or that cute little mixer! I might have to put that on my Christmas list!

We use that same Pampered Chef thingy and that same recipe only we buy basalmic vinegar at Costco and it is soooooo good. Try sweetening with raw honey too.... so good!

This sounds wonderful.
I'm so proud of you. :)
We went to a pig roast Nov. 1.
I met a new homeschool family I had only talked to online.
It was FUN!!
We met Saturday & people thought we had known each other for years.
Blessings,
Michelle
