&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;Would you like to be able to make your own healthier, preservative free, homemade cream soups?&amp;nbsp; Do you use them regularly?&amp;nbsp; How many cans in 1 year?&amp;nbsp; Do you have that many cans stored?&amp;nbsp; Did you know you can make your own with THRIVE?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I got these recipes (and then modified them a bit) from &lt;a href="http://www.cookingwithmyfoodstorage.com/2011/03/make-your-own-mix-magic-mix-and-link.html"&gt;Heather over at Cooking with my Food Storage.&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; Thanks Heather!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One idea would be to multiply this recipe by 5-10 and keep a bag or jar of it handy.&amp;nbsp; Then, just scoop out 1 1/2 cup dry mix and add 1 1/4 cup water each time you need a can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;One can Cream of Chicken Soup:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;3/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/instant-milk-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Instant milk&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/3 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/butter-powder-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Butter Powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/white-flour-1.html"&gt;THRIVE flour &lt;/a&gt;(or any white flour)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/4 cup cold water&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/4 tsp. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/chicken-bouillon-1.html"&gt;THRIVE chicken bullion&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 T. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/freeze-dried-chopped-chicken.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried chicken dices&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;Mix all ingredients together with a wire whisk over medium high heat.&amp;nbsp; Cook and stir until thickened.&amp;nbsp; Use as you would the canned product.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;One can Cream of Mushroom Soup:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;3/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/instant-milk-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Instant milk&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/3 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/butter-powder-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Butter Powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/white-flour-1.html"&gt;THRIVE flour &lt;/a&gt;(or any white flour)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/4 cup cold water&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;3/4 tsp. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/beef-bouillon-1.html"&gt;THRIVE beef bullion&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 T. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/freeze-dried-mushroom-pieces-1.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried mushrooms&lt;/a&gt; (diced)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;Mix all ingredients together with a wire whisk over medium high  heat.&amp;nbsp; Cook and stir until thickened.&amp;nbsp; Use as you would the canned  product.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Don't forget about &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/letfreedomthrive"&gt;Shelf Reliance's Independence day sale!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt; Through July 4th (tomorrow), you can save up to 30% on over 30 products (&lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/06/become-shelf-reliance-consultant-save.html"&gt;including new consultant kits&lt;/a&gt;)!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think these muffins work great for breakfast or dinner.&amp;nbsp; They were quick and easy to make.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The original recipe is from &lt;a href="http://picky-palate.com/2009/07/16/broccoli-cheddar-and-sausage-egg-muffin/"&gt;Jenny over at Picky Palate again&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; She really comes up with some great stuff!&amp;nbsp; Sadly, I forgot to take pictures, so you will have to &lt;a href="http://picky-palate.com/2009/07/16/broccoli-cheddar-and-sausage-egg-muffin/"&gt;visit Picky Palate&lt;/a&gt; to see what these look like!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (like Pillsbury) (you will likely only use 6)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pinch of salt and pepper&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/freeze-dried-broccoli-1.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried broccoli&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1/2 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/freeze-dried-sausage-crumbles.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried sausage crumbles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;5 T. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/whole-eggs-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Whole egg powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; 1 T. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/instant-milk-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Instant milk powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 1/2 cup water&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/shredded-cheddar-cheese.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried cheddar cheese&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-36Koy7kRkGU/TguS0dsreAI/AAAAAAAAAOs/E-D1ArzFPMg/s1600/Broccoli.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-36Koy7kRkGU/TguS0dsreAI/AAAAAAAAAOs/E-D1ArzFPMg/s320/Broccoli.png" width="281" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Preheat oven to 350&lt;br /&gt;
Mix egg powder, milk powder, water and cheese.&amp;nbsp; Let sit for at least 10 minutes. &lt;br /&gt;
Spray six muffin tins with non-stick spray.&amp;nbsp; Cut biscuits into triangles (you'll get about 8 from each biscuit) and place 6-10 triangles in each muffin tin (depending on the size of your muffin cups).&amp;nbsp; Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.&lt;br /&gt;
Place broccoli and sausage evenly over biscuits in each cup.&lt;br /&gt;
Pour egg mixture evenly over each cup.&amp;nbsp; Make sure mixture gets all the way to the bottom (underneath the biscuit).&amp;nbsp; Use a fork if you need to.&amp;nbsp; Also make sure sausage and broccoli are covered in liquid. Let sit for another 5 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
Bake for 28-32 minutes and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 1/2 cups water&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;2 1/4 tsp Active dry yeast&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2 cups Whole white wheat flour (I &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/kitchen-mill-wheat-grinder.html"&gt;ground &lt;/a&gt;mine from the &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/hard-white-winter-wheat-1.html"&gt;THRIVE whole hard white winter wheat&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;3 cups &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/freeze-dried-strawberries-1.html"&gt;THRIVE freeze dried strawberries&lt;/a&gt;, hydrated in water and drained (it took about 10 minutes to hydrate them in lukewarm water)&lt;/li&gt;

Preheat over to 375.&amp;nbsp; Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let cool, then mix glaze ingredients by adding just enough water to get a slightly runny consistency.&amp;nbsp; Poor over rolls (I took the pictures before I made the glaze..oops)&lt;br /&gt;

I am in love.  Breakfast for days.  Yum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My kids wanted to make cupcakes.&amp;nbsp; I wanted something a bit healthier.&amp;nbsp; I was hoping these banana muffins would be sweet enough to please all of us.&amp;nbsp; I was not disappointed.&amp;nbsp; Neither were my kids.&amp;nbsp; You can &lt;a href="http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/Chocolate-Chip-Banana-Muffins-3"&gt;find the original recipe over at Taste of Home,&lt;/a&gt; and see how I tweaked it to use THRIVE below (I also doubled the recipe.&amp;nbsp; I got 24 muffins total):&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Add enough water to banana slices to just barely cover them.&amp;nbsp; Let sit for 5-10 minutes.&amp;nbsp; Blend well in blender. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Combine flour, baking soda and salt in bowl.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;In a small bowl, mix butter powder, brown sugar,  egg powder and water.&amp;nbsp; Mix well.&amp;nbsp; Add vanilla and creamed bananas.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Add flour mixture  to creamed mixture until just moistened. Fold in chocolate chips. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;   Fill lined muffin cups three-fourths full with batter.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Sprinkle banana sugar mixture over each muffin (I will post recipe tomorrow).&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Bake at 350° for 18-20 minutes or  until a toothpick comes out clean.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/span&gt;          &lt;br /&gt;

When I first got married, I wasn't a huge fan of cornbread.&amp;nbsp; Luckily, my husband loves it so I started making it more and more often.&amp;nbsp; As I've experimented with different recipes, I've really come to like it.&amp;nbsp; This recipe is awesome, especially when you slather on some sweet butter and honey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I ground my own cornmeal from popcorn using my &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/kitchen-mill-wheat-grinder.html"&gt;wheat grinder&lt;/a&gt;, but you can use &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/cornmeal-1.html"&gt;THRIVE cornmeal&lt;/a&gt; instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/2 cups &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/cornmeal-1.html"&gt;THRIVE cornmeal&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/2 cup flour (I used flour ground from THRIVE &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/hard-white-winter-wheat-1.html"&gt;hard white winter wheat&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/butter-powder-1.html"&gt;THRIVE butter powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/2 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/sour-cream-powder.html"&gt;THRIVE sour cream powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;3 tsp T&lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/baking-powder-1.html"&gt;HRIVE baking powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/4 cup &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/white-sugar-1.html"&gt;THRIVE sugar&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 tsp. &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/iodized-salt-1.html"&gt;THRIVE salt&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/2 tsp &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/baking-soda-1.html"&gt;THRIVE baking soda&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 T.&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/whole-eggs-1.html"&gt;THRIVE Whole Egg Powder&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 1/2 cup water&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Preheat oven to 375.&amp;nbsp; Mix all ingredients into a medium bowl.&amp;nbsp; Transfer batter into a greased 8x8 in pan (or muffin cups...fill 3/4 full) and bake for 15-20 minutes.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;**Note: recipe does not have to be made with all THRIVE products, but it can be.&amp;nbsp; For example, I did not use THRIVE salt or sugar.&amp;nbsp; I actually don't even own THRIVE salt, sugar or baking soda yet.&amp;nbsp; I will have to let you know if they are superior in any way once I've got them!&amp;nbsp; Anyone out there tried them and want to share their opinion?**&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;These are SO fast!&amp;nbsp; The dough takes 15 minutes.&amp;nbsp; You don't have to rehydrate anything.&amp;nbsp; Use this recipe instead of going to McDonalds!&amp;nbsp; I promise it will take you less time to make these than it takes to drive to McDonalds and back!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Quick THRIVE Calzones:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dough:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 1/4 tsp yeast&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 cup warm water&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 tsp sugar&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;1 tsp salt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 T. THRIVE Shortening powder&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 T. THRIVE Cornmeal &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;2 1/2 cup THRIVE whole white wheat flour&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sauce&lt;/b&gt;: &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/04/thrive-marinara-sauce-with-tomato.html"&gt;Check out this recipe &lt;/a&gt;using THRIVE tomato powder&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Toppings:&lt;/b&gt; Whatever you want!&amp;nbsp; I like Ham (TVP or freeze dried) and pineapple.&amp;nbsp; I also make them with sausage, mushroom and bell peppers.&amp;nbsp; You could also try a white sauce with spinach, chicken and mushrooms.&amp;nbsp; Don't forget the THRIVE freeze dried cheese!&amp;nbsp; Leave a comment telling me what you come up with!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Preheat oven to 425.&amp;nbsp; Dissolve yeast in warm water and add sugar.&amp;nbsp; Let it sit for about 10 minutes (it should be very foamy).&amp;nbsp; While dough sits, get out your THRIVE tomato powder and &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/04/thrive-marinara-sauce-with-tomato.html"&gt;use this recipe&lt;/a&gt; to make up some quick sauce.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Once yeast is nice and foamy, add other ingredients and then beat vigorously for 20 seconds.&amp;nbsp; Allow to rest for another 5 minutes with plastic wrap (or a towel) over it.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Divide dough into four parts.&amp;nbsp; Roll each section into a ball, then roll the dough out on a floured surface.&amp;nbsp; As you roll it out,  turn the dough a quarter turn with each stroke until it is about 8  inches in diameter.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-EMo0eGZq-0PKYmrLbrNWJiRtzVwdLYyRovCKO20OyzV_ubzuvHer-RSiiUrb7LyZk9QdYdA1gx0NzMDMzvw5k3cV4uX7QKqGA1gMK7FDSk0qPcXWO2vKqzUFFN_xgei-RyoW8r4rx9A/s1600/IMG_6388.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-EMo0eGZq-0PKYmrLbrNWJiRtzVwdLYyRovCKO20OyzV_ubzuvHer-RSiiUrb7LyZk9QdYdA1gx0NzMDMzvw5k3cV4uX7QKqGA1gMK7FDSk0qPcXWO2vKqzUFFN_xgei-RyoW8r4rx9A/s200/IMG_6388.jpg" width="150" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Place your toppings on one side of each calzone circle.&amp;nbsp; Cover with sauce.&amp;nbsp; Make sure your toppings are covered or they won't hydrate properly.&amp;nbsp; Fold calzones over and press with fork to close.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/2 c. THRIVE tomato powder&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;1/2 tsp. Dried Dill Weed&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Add THRIVE freeze dried sausage or ground beef for spaghetti or lasagna sauce, or use as pizza sauce and top with your favorite THRIVE freeze dried fruit and veggies! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

We will have &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/02/pancake-mix.html"&gt;these pancakes&lt;/a&gt; on Saturday, but I thought blueberry muffins would be a nice quick breakfast for Sunday morning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I don't know that these are strictly healthy: they do have 1 full cup of sugar in them, but they &lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;are &lt;/span&gt;whole wheat, and man are they tasty!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry about the picture.  I was working on getting a better one when my newborn woke up from a nap needing to be fed.  By the time I got back to the kitchen, my sweet 20 mo old had found her way onto the kitchen counter and crumbled them all to pieces.  So, this one will have to do.  I&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My favorite thing about these muffins?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"&gt;The freeze dried blueberries don't bleed!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/2 cup THRIVE Butter powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1 cup sugar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/2 tsp. salt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 T. THRIVE Whole egg powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 T. THRIVE Instant milk powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 tsp. vanilla extract&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 cups THRIVE Whole wheat flour&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1 1/2 tsp. baking powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1 cup THRIVE freeze dried blueberries&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Water (see instructions below for amounts)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Cream butter, sugar, salt and 2 Tablespoons water&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Add eggs, vanilla, milk and 1 c. water&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Add flour and baking powder.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Fold in blueberries.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 min.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

They are not completely 100% THRIVE since I used cocoa and chocolate chips: THRIVE does not yet carry cocoa or chocolate chips.  Although I've had a few of you request that I put in a product suggestion to corporate that they find a way to freeze dry chocolate chips.  Wouldn't that be amazing!  Yum...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I had to post these because they were very tasty (read: I ate WAY too many!).  I double the recipe and then added mint extract to half of them.  (I don't like mint and my husband does) and before you think we ate the entire double batch (yes they are ALL gone), we did share a bunch at a church event we had last night:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1 2/3 cup granulated sugar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;3/4 cup THRIVE butter powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 T. THRIVE Whole egg powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/2 c. water&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2 tsp. vanilla extract&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1 c. all purpose flour&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/3 c. whole wheat flour (you could do all white flour, but I always like to throw in a bit of whole wheat)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;3/4 c. unsweetened cocoa&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/2 tsp. baking powder&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/4 tsp salt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/4 c. mini chocolate chips&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="font-style: italic;"&gt;PREHEAT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; oven to 350º F.  Place liners in muffin pan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="font-style: italic;"&gt;COMBINE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;  granulated sugar, butter and water in large bowl.  Stir in eggs and  vanilla extract. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in medium  bowl; stir into sugar mixture. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;FILL &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;each cup 1/3 full.  Use a small spoon (I used a baby spoon) to create a hole in the batter in the middle of each cup.

I've already shown you how to &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/02/using-thrive-tomato-powder.html"&gt;make tomato paste, sauce, and juice&lt;/a&gt; for less than you can buy them at the grocery store.

It pairs perfectly with the &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/03/lion-house-rolls.html"&gt;Lion House Rolls&lt;/a&gt; I'm about to post.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've always struggled to make honey butter.  I can never seem to get a firm enough consistency once I've "softened" the butter.  So, then I end up using more butter to fix the too soft butter, then I need more honey, then more butter and you get the picture...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've never even tried to make flavored honey butter.  I've never even thought about how I might.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Until today.  I wanted to make some raspberry honey butter to go with the &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/03/lion-house-rolls.html"&gt;Lion House rolls&lt;/a&gt; we had for dinner.  That is what they serve their rolls with at the Lion House and I was really craving it.  So, I decided to give it a try with my THRIVE ingredients.  It was quite the success and so fast and easy to get just the right consistency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1/3 c. THRIVE butter powder&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1/3 c. Honey&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; 1 T. THRIVE raspberries, crushed to powder&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mix butter powder, honey and raspberry power.&amp;nbsp; You may need to add a drop or two of water to get the consistency you want. (depending on the consistency of your honey). It will thicken up a bit after a few hours in the fridge as well.&amp;nbsp;  Serve over rolls or bread of your choice.  I like mine with the &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/03/lion-house-rolls.html"&gt;Lion House rolls&lt;/a&gt;, of course!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Makes about 8-10 1 Tablespoon servings&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Total Cost for #10 cans required for this recipe (does not include honey):  $54.18**&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;If you use all the butter, you will have 430 1 Tablespoon servings, and have $23.71** in leftover raspberries.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Cost per Tablespoon: $0.07** using THRIVE ingredients&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;You can lower that cost by 5% purchasing each ingredient in a case of six.If you are interested in purchasing these products at the above discounted prices,** you may do so directly on &lt;a href="http://yourownhomestore.shelfreliance.com/"&gt;my Shelf Reliance Website.&lt;/a&gt;  If you would like to lower those prices by 3%, you can &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/p/earn-free-shelf-reliance-products.html"&gt;attend or host a party&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.yourownhomestore.com/2011/03/what-is-q.html"&gt;create a Q.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

But, they have to be just right.  I'll admit I'm a bit picky about my chocolate chip cookies.  I've been using the Whole Powdered eggs in my very favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe for a few years without and difference at all.&lt;br /&gt;I decided to try switching out the butter and shortening as well.&lt;br /&gt;I was a bit nervous at first as the batter tasted great, but had a funky texture.  I ended up being very pleasantly surprised.  They didn't turn out &lt;span&gt;exactly&lt;/span&gt; the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;same&lt;/span&gt;, but they were very good.  In fact, they reminded me a lot of &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002OXIZOE?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=frugalicious-20&amp;amp;linkCode=as2&amp;amp;camp=1789&amp;amp;creative=390957&amp;amp;creativeASIN=B002OXIZOE"&gt;these cookies&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=frugalicious-20&amp;amp;l=as2&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;a=B002OXIZOE" alt="" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important;" border="0" width="1" height="1" /&gt; and seeing as how those were my favorite sweet snack growing up, I was very happy with the result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another plus?

Water.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Add Vanilla.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Add Salt, Soda and Flour.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Makes about 30-35 medium chocolate chip cookies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Note, I live at sea level.

I will start today with my pancake mix.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg84DqqewTVAijXozb4USEZFUx4dlsddsh8-LPjA6mIihLPGPFOQ5m0lGrKeSGoFV-hk5XOKz6mh2efYC4E4jbA-I2edqD6GxResC1SeM5dgNur4YdkjETemzk72dTU_yvy9BB2iOW0u78/s1600/whole+wheat+pancakes.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578222061983719218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg84DqqewTVAijXozb4USEZFUx4dlsddsh8-LPjA6mIihLPGPFOQ5m0lGrKeSGoFV-hk5XOKz6mh2efYC4E4jbA-I2edqD6GxResC1SeM5dgNur4YdkjETemzk72dTU_yvy9BB2iOW0u78/s400/whole+wheat+pancakes.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 266px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I found this recipe a few years ago while looking for a whole wheat pancake recipe.  I wanted a way to incorporate whole wheat into my family's diet so that if we every had to live on it, our bodies would be used to it.  Did you know that if you don't regularly eat whole wheat and then suddenly start consuming a lot, you will likely get very sick?  I wanted to avoid that for my family.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I found this recipe on the &lt;a href="http://www.kingarthurflour.com/"&gt;King Arthur website.    &lt;/a&gt;They  have many incredible recipes.  I highly recommend their website if you  are looking for ways to incorporate whole wheat flour into your diet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've adapted it to use THRIVE powders:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4 c. whole wheat flour (I use whole white wheat)&lt;br /&gt;
1 c. all-purpose flour&lt;br /&gt;
3 1/2 cups rolled oats&lt;br /&gt;
3 T. sugar&lt;br /&gt;
3 T. baking powder&lt;br /&gt;
1 T. salt&lt;br /&gt;
1 T. baking soda&lt;br /&gt;
1 c. shortening powder&lt;br /&gt;
1 1/4 c. whole egg powder&lt;br /&gt;
1 1/4 c. powdered milk&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Grind the oats in a food processor or blender until they are very fine (almost a powder), then mix will all other ingredients.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can stop there for just a basic, healthy &amp;amp; tasty pancake mix.  My kids love them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Or, you can add your favorite THRIVE freeze dried fruit for fun.   When I do add fruit, I usually add about 1 1/2 cup.  You can add it whole if you want the chunks of fruit in your pancakes (I do this with blueberries or raspberries), or you can crush it to a powder if you just want the flavor (I do this with bananas)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When ready to make pancakes, add 1 cup water to 1 cup mix and blend.  If you did add the fruit, add an extra 2 T. water.  Batter will seem very thin at first, but the oats (and fruit) will soak it up and it will thicken as it stands.  Let it stand for about 20 minutes before cooking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cook as you would any other pancake.  1 cup mix should make 7-9 4-inch pancakes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are also great topped with &lt;a href="http://www.foodstoragesolution.com/2011/02/raspberry-sauce.html"&gt;raspberry sauce!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mix will have a shelf life of 6 months (the shelf life of the eggs) if left sealed in your cupboard or on your counter.  If you store it sealed in your freezer, it should last for a few years!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Total Cost for #10 cans required for this recipe:  $113.82**&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;You will get: About 300 4-inch pancakes and have $77.92** in sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, shortening, milk and eggs left over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Cost per pancake: $0.12 using all THRIVE ingredients**&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;You can lower that cost by 5% by purchasing each ingredient in a case of six.&lt;br /&gt;

The verdict:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I love it!  I actually like it better:  it rose and cooked a lot more evenly. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1R_Hretsy242zIsqjvgQxgdaM-A0griB7hU9v1C4op2ifJn51PMW8vqpnfQ9R28i7g4XOuWz7aXv4YMm0D2QwKIKiFPXZ3O2ImJUgA2Ba4CLofR83wQjgJKtNzpyBUaW3A1cJgHVAqCE/s1600/IMG_6186.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are interested in trying it:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 cups all purpose flour&lt;br /&gt;3/4 cup sugar &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(can replace with real maple syrup if you have it.

You can get the butter and egg powders in this package which brings the cost to $17.19 for the eggs and $16.67 for the butter.  I also regularly use the shortening powder that is in this package, and the milk tastes just like real milk (seriously!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0);"&gt;Baking Essential Package**&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;568 Servings in Six #10 Cans&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;3 Cans Instant Milk&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 Can Butter Powder&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 Can Shortening Powder&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 Can Whole Eggs&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;You can get the bananas in this package which brings the cost of them to $20.19 and lowers your cost per loaf to $3.54.  My kids love eating these fruits for snacks and I'm happy to give them to them as they are very healthy and contain no added sugar, salt or preservatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0);"&gt;Ultimate Fruit Pack: $483.99**&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1366 Servings in Thirty #10 Cans&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 Can Freeze Dried Apricots&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Banana Slices&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Blackberries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Blueberries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Mangoes&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Peaches&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Pears&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1 Can Freeze Dried Pineapple&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Raspberries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2 Cans Freeze Dried Strawberries&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;3 Apple Chips&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;3 Banana Chips&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;3 Pineapple&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;  3 Apples Slices&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;If you are interested in purchasing these ingredients, please  &lt;a href="http://www.foodstoragesolution.com/p/contact-me.html"&gt;contact me&lt;/a&gt; first to set up a preferred customer account to get the quoted prices!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://foodstoragesolution.blogspot.com/feeds/1289823335928623424/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://foodstoragesolution.blogspot.com/2011/02/banana-bread.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/8363409769869531095/posts/default/1289823335928623424'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://foodstoragesolution.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/1289823335928623424'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://foodstoragesolution.blogspot.com/2011/02/banana-bread.html' title='Moist &amp; Chewy Banana Bread'/><author><name>Misty</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/08911402931188415376</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylO0EvtAIwHXXPZkIpcQ48boVtjsWpNCCBtVf7JzLuWHpu_sqI-hoeDqStvG9nyyj_5V1DFpYuB1mDf7xgy0W_X9pxgK8-ZI6uNDNew2Tn-UyQfCuG_tRVDmjJ2dtKw/s220/me.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMXI5TeY6pdI3wc15oZSSeJ4-CQXDn7WdwKTanpRH0lzzcFhwmS0bX9OCj0FtLY2E1dGBJaojGttrgNNMB-9gi4UjK8jPghQ427MMDTULB2ieDRpaDaVHkA4DjdDz7IDrWcvaFMhcwmt4/s72-c/IMG_6186.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
