MENU / SONOMA

Our menu is in the sidebar.... We know we skipped a few weeks of posting them but rest asured that we did eat!! Last night the power went out so we didn't have an alarm this morning, so ham didn't get put into oven BUT Mommy's friend Nichole is going to come out to the house to throw it into the oven during her lunch break! (wow do we have GREAT friends)!! We are still doing sonoma as much as possible and loveing the power foods. As for a sonoma tip this week we do not have one today BUT as soon as we think of one it will be up. We are so busy that there is no time for thinking of tips... we are lucky to have time and eat littlelone have a meal together with conversation. That is why you will notice LOTS of pre-prepared meals. As for frozen fruit here is the original recipe then Mommy will tell you how she has "sonomaized" it.
FROZEN FRUIT
  • 1 BAGS FROZEN STRAWBERRIES (POWER FOOD)
  • 2 LARGE CONTAINERS OF SLICE STRAWBERRIES
  • 2 LARGE CAN PEACHES (DRAINED AND CHOPPED)
  • 2 CAN PINAPPLE (CRUSHED)
  • 8 BANANAS (SLICED)
  • 1 CUP WATER AND SUGAR (BOIL FOR 5 MIN THEN COOL)

While water and sugar is boiling mix of the other ingredients. Then pour water/sugar mixture into bowl and stir well. Then freeze!! Really hard we know!!

SONOMA FROZEN FRUIT

ALL THE SAME STUFF BUT ADD

  • 2 BAGS FROZEN BLUEBERRIES

AND TAKE OUT THE SUGAR WATER

We have made it several times with out the sugar water and it turns out fine.

This frozen fruit recipe is wonderful. It makes a large batch so we divide it up into several containers. Some individual size for snacks or in lunchboxes (Uncle Mark likes it over ice cream!!). Some bigger containers (whip cream size) to have for a meal. Then the last part we leave in a big bowl to bring to potlucks, funerals ect... It is so fast, easy and refreashing on a hot summer day.

ENJOY
