Celebrate National Garlic Day

Happy National Garlic Day

Sounds like Italian food is on the menu for today.  I only use garlic powder so that's what my recipes use but they can be converted to "real" garlic.

Yesterday, I made Melt in Your Mouth Chicken and it lived up to its name.  The chicken was so moist.  The recipe is on Food.com and uses 1 tsp of garlic powder.

Another yummy recipe that uses 1 tsp of garlic powder is Garlic Herb Pull-Apart Rolls.  There's a really easy recipe on the Southern Bite website.  You really have to try this one.

What's your favorite recipe that uses garlic?

Colossians 3:15  Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace.  And be thankful.

Happy National Chili Day & National Strawberry Day & National Toast Day

Hubby makes great chili and that's what dinner is tonight.  Toasted garlic bread sounds good to go with it.  Two at once!  Not putting strawberries in my chili though.  I did buy frozen strawberries and whipped cream for dessert and we probably have some strawberry ice cream.  We feast tonight!  Do you like your chili spicy or mild?  This isn't hubby's chili recipe but it sounds like a good one from The Magical Slow Cooker.  I like hot dog chili on hot dogs too.  If you don't like chili, you can go to Chili's and get something else.

Strawberries are so versatile.  You can have them for breakfast in oatmeal or as jam on toast (and again celebrate 2 at once!)   You can eat them fresh as a snack.  You can add them to a salad.  And, of course, there's always dessert.  Southern Bite has a recipe for Strawberry Yum Yum and it does sound yum yum!

We've already covered toast.  Toast is good for breakfast, lunch (grilled cheese), and dessert.

But the best bread is talked about in John 6:48 when Jesus said, "I AM the bread of life."  Don't let your bread get toasted in the judgment.  Turn to Jesus now and accept his forgiveness and eternal life.
