Buffy,Good for you!!!I was just telling hubby I wanted to make some sausage soon.His idea is making 100 lbs...me more like 25 lbs..lol Have a great day nonna 

Nonna - would love sausage recipes - I like sausage but have a bad reaction to Nitrates (or whatever is in the store bought ones). Plus, I buy nice lean pork.  

Morning Buffy, I am not a sausage person but the guy that fixes ours is awesome..he cans it and freezes it..we have it for our brunches on the weekends..its nice to have things ready so you can grab a healthy snack and not go for the not so good stuff...Have a great day my friend....☺ 

Looks like you've been a busy bee ☺ Have a great day 

Sounds so yummy!!! I only wish I had more time to cook, so sometimes the food choices getting boring. What do you put in the Banana MIM's?? 

Bren - I hate greasy sausage so when I make my own I can control the amount of grease as well as salt and preservatives (still working on the different spice mixes).  

Jozette - Had to do it - my laziness was hurting my weight loss.  

Buffy we've found the Schwann sausage patties don't have any grease. Don't know if you have access to a Schwann truck or not, they also have very good pork chops. It's a little pricer than store bought, but I like it much better. You are ambitious to make all those muffins and spinach quiche, good for you. I'll have to look to see if I have the Banana MIM, think I do, if not I'll be asking for the recipe. 

Kgarton - I use the batch regular oven muffin recipe and substitute 1 heaping teasp. McCormicks banana flavor and double the Spledna. Then I put a few walnut pieces in each muffin. 

Please share your banana MIM recipe. I love, love, bananas! Thanks! 

You are keeping busy I need to cook like that more.....sometimes if I have nothing at hand I just don't eat, that is crazy........I should go to a cooking class, I wish I could find a healthy eating class the Atkins way.....that would be awesome.......I am impressed you did that. 

I'm with you buffy, I can't stand the grease either...and I don't know what he puts in his and I wish he could sell it...his is better than any thing on the market...but he only does it for just a few if they have their own pig...  

Hi Buffy, is that the same lemon poppy seed mim recipe that you sent me that you start with? (Mmmmm, banana nut muffins?, yummy!) I try to bake ahead when I can, it sure does keep things easier when time gets short. Last weekend I made blueberry muffins...now those were really good, I got the recipe from Candice's website, almost just like I remember them to be, moist & sweet & very blueberry! 

Pssst, don't tell anybody at my house, but I have zucchini bread, pumpkin bread, blueberry muffins & cheesecake stashed in the freezer! 

Notfast - just curious - do they have the Nitrates and/or other preservatives? The truck would stop right at my work if I wanted it to. 

GG - Yes - same old muffin - just recycled as something different. I've got to visit those websites and get some new recipes. I found some pecan meal the other day and can't wait to use it,  

Yvonne - I really don't like to bake so when I do it I make big batches. I figure I'm going to trash the kitchen anyway I might just as well go all out!
