Cottage Cheese
Cottage cheese can be made using the first whey dipped off of your hard cheese, before the hot water has been added. See the Hard Cheese recipe to know what I'm talking about. This whey has some rennet in it.
Chalupa – Beans and Meat
This is an easy and delicious meal you can make ahead and come home to on a busy day. We use it as a burrito filling and sometimes as a side with scrambled eggs in the morning.
Apple Sack Mead
This is a simple honey wine that will remind you of hot apple pie and ice cream. It is favorite on cold winter nights with a simple dinner of sharp cheese, sourdough bread, olives and cherry tomatoes. Although it's also great cold on a summer evening under the stars. The yeast and various mead and...
Tortillas
This recipe is from my husband's mother and grandmother who are life-long westerners. Out in the west, tortillas are as essential as a broad-brimmed hat. We triple this recipe for 2 dozen large tortillas.
Strawberry Limeade

This omelet is fast and delicious. If you have left over baked potatoes, you can dice, brown and add those as well. We have this breakfast with toast on the side a couple of times a week.
Hearty Apple Walnut Muffins
These muffins are great as an afternoon snack with hot herbal tea, or with scrambled eggs for breakfast.
Cow Birthing Feed
If you've ever had a tough birth, you remember the need to regain strength, get that milk flowing for the newborn, and get back on your feet. All mamas need a little extra boost sometimes, especially if they are older or fighting untoward circumstances. When we have a cow that needs a little TLC, this...
Huevos Rancheros
This is an all time favorite for breakfast. You can use either green or red chile sauce, and flour or corn tortillas. With black beans on the side, sliced avocado dressed with lime juice and sea salt as a garnish, this dish makes a satisfying meal any time of the day.
