- Things have been crazy around here like usual! We are trying to find a new normal while fitting in gardening and preserving in every waking moment it seems like. Then comes the editing of the week long video. This was actually a 2 hour, 45 minute video cut down to approximately 31 minutes. I want you to see what I do but I don't want to bore you to death. I hope you enjoy watching! I loved some of the new things I tried this week. I can't wait to get them on my shelves in the larder.
Here is the link to the pantry challenge. I did earlier this year so that you know what I was talking about in the front of the video…
#threeriverschallenge Pantry Challenge 2024
• #threeriverschallenge ...
Here are some links to recipes I used in this video...
Instant Hummus In A Jar Recipe:
Prep your chickpeas/garbanzo beans by soaking overnight. Alternatively you can bring your chickpeas to a boil for 2 minutes, turn off the heat, and allow them to sit for an hour. Drain off the water and rinse well. Add the chickpeas back to the pot with 1 quart of water per pound of chickpeas. For 6 pints you will need 1 pound of chickpeas. I did 12 pints, so I used 2 pounds of chickpeas. Divide the chickpeas evenly among hot, clean jars. Add in your flavorings as listed below, and top off with hot water to 1 inch of headspace. Debubble, adjust headspace, and add lids fingertip tight. Process pints in a pressure canner for 75 minutes.
To Serve:
Drain off some of the liquid and set it aside. Add the contents of the jar to a blender or food processor with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add liquid until the desired consistency is reached. If you choose to omit the sesame seeds during canning, add 1/4 cup of toasted sesame seeds now or 2 tbsp tahini.
Roasted Garlic Hummus
Per Pint:
4 cloves roasted garlic
1/4 cup sesame seeds
3 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Per Pint:
4 cloves garlic
1/2 roasted red pepper or 2 slices
1/4 cup sesame seeds
3 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
Cajun Red Beans and Sausage

Yes, this makes sense. It is what we spend overall in prepping for a garden and larder as there is definitely cost for that. I am in year 3-4 and I will say that last year was the first year where my grocery bills went down noticeably. This year even more so. I budget $200/month for food in its entirety. Because of what I have in my kitchen, downstairs basement pantry, dehydrated foods and canned meats I spend an average of about $40/month on produce and little assorted fill-ins. I don't have good luck with growing a garden but I am great at locating great food buys so I can a lot of inexpensive food items and feel really good about that. I know that I don't have to be a master at everything ...... just some things. I get great satisfaction in learning and expanding my prepping knowledge in all its forms.
Wow, it sounds like you have really been working things out. My Granddaughter calls my larder my store. It sounds like you definitely have one as well. It’s important to have a good eye and find a good deal for sure. I, like you, love learning and expanding my prepping knowledge as well. Thanks so much for for sharing the information! You are doing a great job! 😁
Thank you for sharing your preservation tips and ideas and recipes for this week... very appreciated! Hope to try some of them soon! Blessings on your homestead Penny! 🌻🐛🌿💚🙏💕
Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words! Blessings to you as well! 😁💕
Hi Penny!👋👋 Oh I hear your voice and see you and it makes me smile.😊 I'm watching your video as I write my to do list for next week and fold laundry for ironing later. We have no water in my area just now due to a burst pipe but we're prepared and have bottled water and our water butts in the garden to deal with necessary things.🤣 It is not a sunny day but not too cold with a slight breeze which us good as Belle tripped Jon up when carrying a bucket of water in the cellar so drying the floor that way. (Little gap here as Jon, myself and our youngest have been out prepping winter wood, I put a post on IG just now.) Planning the garden then the preserving is definitely the way to go. I hope your sinuses have cleared up?x All your tomatoes and peppers look deelish! Love the old school vacuum sealer. Your dry mixes were fab and will look at the recipes. I'm still waiting to go foraging for blackberries, they seem late this year. Wonderful collection of goodies for the pantry. Have a lovely Sunday, friend.x❤
Good morning Louise! I am so sorry about your water, but I am so thrilled that you are prepared! Isn’t that a good feeling? As you describe your day and the breeze and you splitting wood, I can just feel, here and smell all of the things going on around your farm. Including your fresh laundry. I love it when you tell me about things in your life. One of these days I am coming to visit you. Like it or not! 😜
Thank you for all the kind words about my produce. They have been very lovely this year. I think they like the new place that I have planted them. The plants are so big. I struggle with keeping them tied up. I think some animals are getting in there at night and kind of pulling them down to reach in and get the tomatoes. So I’m gonna have to find a better way to keep them tied up.
I hope the blackberries come soon. I’m sure you will make all kinds of yummy things to put on the shelves. Enjoy the rest of your day as you wait for your water and finish your laundry. And by the way, I’m glad you folded your clothes, waiting to iron them instead of just wadding them up. That’s what I do too! 😂 Blessings!
Love seeing the variety of canning projects you do. Sadly we had a terrible tomato season this year. I’m sure that hurricane we had contributed to that. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for next week
I am so sorry to hear about the hurricane. I’m sure that did affect them very much! I’m so glad you’re coming along on this adventure with me and I can’t wait to hear from you next week. Blessings! 😁
Love the idea with the peppers. Smoked and fire roasted sounds yummy.
Thanks, Brenda! I was really surprised how many times I used peppers out of the freezer last year. I would probably be out of them except that I have a couple bags of peppers that were not fire roasted or smoked. Who wants to use those? 🤦♀️🤣 Poor things are just gonna sit there forever unless I take them out and roast them. I’m not sure how that would work. I might have to try it. I’m so glad you found my video useful! Blessings on your preserving! 😁
Love it. Busy week preparing.
Hi Helen! I think there are a LOT of busy weeks going on here! Thanks for taking time to stop by! 😁
Clothes-drying tip: I often hang things on hangers and then hang on door posts until they dry, especially on those rainy days. I hate running the dryer anyway, at least during the Summer months.
Thanks so much! I didn’t think it would take 3 days for him to get a part or I would have done something different to start with! 🤦♀️ Live and learn! 😁
I really appreciate your effort in participating in this challenge. I am enjoying your video very much. I am glad you did the red beans in this, I didn’t even think about canning the red beans and sausage as a meal. I have been canning red beans for this meal for a while, this would be so much better. We have red beans and rice about once a month and this would be so convenient for me. I want to try canning the chicken peas for hummus, I just haven’t been able to find them in my local store.
Hi Teresa! I’m glad that you got a good idea from watching. I figure we will probably serve ours with rice as well. I’m sorry you can’t find chickpeas. Do you have any health food stores or do you use Amazon? You could probably buy some from there. Blessings on your canning! 😁
Great job you will have a lot of things for the winter
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment, Karen! 😁
Great!!! 🎉
Thanks!!!!
Wait. .I need more details about the ranch mix, Luke how to mix it, and exact measurements...please...lol
🤣🤣🤣 No worries Crystal, the recipe link is in the video notes/description box. The link talks about making cucumber powder but then at the end tells the recipe for the mix. ENJOY! 😁
Just a suggestion you could of hung your tee shirts on hangers and hung them on the bar for the shower curtain. I have a clothes dryer rack which I use all the time for clothes that Indo not want to shrink.
Honestly, Patricia, I was so busy doing some canning that I just didn’t even care. We were supposed to get the part the next morning so I didn’t worry about it and it ended up being two mornings but by then they were pretty much dry. That’s a great idea, though. I will keep that in mind for the future! Thanks for watching and for your comment! 😁
Great job!!
Thanks so much! I appreciate your watching and commenting! 😁
A lot f hard work, but such a bounty!
It is a lot of hard work, but I’ll be glad it’s there in the winter time. Thanks so much for your comment! 😁
👍🏻
Thanks Ginny! ❤️
I hope you feel better soon!
Thanks so much! 😁
I want to make that ketchup and fermented granola for sure. I just ordered some seeds for plum tomatoes for next year from Hudson Valley Seeds called Magic Bullet Tomatoes based on a referral from a new site I'm following from this challenge. She said they were so very prolific and extremely tasty. Next year I'll find out if they work for me, too.I also love your herb combinations for seasoning. Have you ever tried to grow cumin? I got seeds last year but was unable to sprout any. Seems it is an herb that so many people use regularly, especially in Mexican dishes. Great video!!!! So happy I follow you.
Hi Mary! The ketchup taste so good! I will definitely be making more. I figure if nothing else in those small jars they would work great in a gift basket. Those tomatoes sound great! I said I was disappointed with the peach tomatoes, but I have found that if I let them go orange before I pick them they are so sweet and yummy. They do not do well to cook and process though. That’s why I’ve been using them for my pizza tomatoes. I’ve never tried to grow cumin. I’m not even sure what the plant looks like or how it works. I know that you grind the seeds to make the cumin powder, but that’s all I know. Maybe I’ll have to check that out. Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words! I am so glad you follow me as well. I would miss you desperately if you ever stopped. 🤦♀️😬😂
Penny you've been a busy little bee!!!! Several things I have down on my list to do- that hummus is a great idea! I canned Garbanzo beans for the first time last week but love this idea! I have been looking for a good fermented granola and will try your recipe- the last 2 I have tried just didn't taste very good or the texture was really weird. Cucumber dressing mix- red bean soup--- gosh...this was filled with new and exciting goodness! Thanks! Your end of the week table is awesome! I am doing much smaller little bits for sure but it will make a difference !
Hi Mary! I am so happy that you love so many of my ideas this week. I was trying to do things that would be different but that my family would definitely enjoy. I love the idea of the hummus jars because I can use them for a Community Class that I teach or Ladies coffee group. They will just come in very handy. Just because my end is a week table is pretty full. does not mean that what you are doing is not a great help for your pantry as well. Because we know… Every bit counts! Blessings on your preserving friend! 😁
Roasted garlic hummus is my absolute favorite. I am heavy on the garlic (in a lot of foods) because I love the taste of it. Thanks for sharing the recipe because I have never made garlic hummus but do have all the ingredients on hand. Thanks so much gal!
I am so happy I could provide a recipe for your garlic needs Robyn! 😜 I hope you enjoy it! Definitely toast the sesame seeds!! 😁 Blessings!
Such great ideas. How long does your granola stay fresh with the sealer you use? I need to try this but I don't want it to go rancid since it is only me here
Thanks so much! This is actually the first time I have sealed it to put on a shelf. But I normally make two jarfuls when I make it. It will take me a good month to make it through one jar and another month before I make it through another. And it has noproblems. Just make sure you get everything totally dry. I did add a moisture absorber just in case. I hope this helps! Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching! 😁
