Scones

Another recipe post today! I just had to share these!
 I'm an bacon and eggs girl for breakfast. Even toast gets old sometimes. However, these scones are absolutely delicious, and perfect for breakfast! My mom found the recipe in a Taste of Home magazine that we get. She made them one time before, and we were hooked! They use some unconventional ingredients. Vanilla yougurt and cinnamon chips, something you might not have on hand. I also really like this recipe because there aren't any eggs in it. Which in this weekends case was perfect, as we were completely out! (This was remedied by a quick trip to the grocery store!) Here's the recipe!





Cinnamon-Sugar Scones
 
Mix 3 Cups Biscuit Mix and 1/4 cup sugar.
Whisk together 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt, 1/3 cup 2% milk, and 1 TBSP vanilla extract.
Stir into dry ingredients, just until moistened.
Stir in 1 cup cinnamon chips OR semisweet chocolate chips.
On a lightly floured surface, knead dough gently 10 times. Pat into a 9 in circle. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Cut into 8 wedfges; place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden.
*All ovens vary so make sure to watch them the first time and adjust temp as needed.*

*Also, don't go to the store and buy the cinnamon-sugar! People, make your own. That way you can control the flavor the way you like it.



If you really want to jazz these up, drizzle some icing on lightly. With the icing, these just took a big step forward!

If you make these, leave me a comment and let me know what you thought of them!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

*Warning: this will be a long post, and picture heavy!*  :) Strictly based on the title alone I should have caught your attention! Sunday was the Alex Goot concert. It was at bar in Pittsburgh, and there were about 5 acts to the show!  You definitely got your money's worth! I went with my cousin, Allie (you can find her blog here! ) and it was just a fun girls night! The show was in a bar which used to be an old church, so it was very pretty inside. We got there around 6,  parked, and only had to stand in line for 10 minutes before we got to go inside. When we went in, we got our tickets scanned and  BAM , there was Landon Austin and Luke Conard at their merchandise table. So, because I somehow gained oodles of confidence*, Allie and I went over and I said "Hi Landon!"  He said "hi" back and asked me my name. I had a card for him so I handed it to him and he asked if he should open it now or later. I said that it was up to him. We moved on to Luke Conar...

It's Been Awhile...

 Hi! Do you remember me and this little blog? I've been thinking about starting this blog back up again, and I am just going to jump in with both feet and go for it! In the past what, 4 years since the last post, I have learned a lot, and have a lot to share! So if you'll bear with me, I'd love to share some fun tips and tricks and recipes with you here on this little space on the internet.  I will give you a little reintroduction of myself.  I'm Mandii. I'm a small town girl full of random information. Sports facts, check. Fashion tips, oh yeah, I've got those a plenty! Recipes? You're speaking my language. I love all things faith, family, fashion, sports, and food related. Which is exactly what you will find on this space. I love to travel even though I don't do it nearly enough.  I don't know if I am going to commit to a full 5 days on here yet. I'll play it by ear, and if you'll stick with me, I think we can do some great things here!  I...
