Food Storage Ideas

I just taught a class tonight at church,  It was fun and went well.  I gave everyone a food storage plan that included items to store and recipes to use.  Food storage can be hard or you can make it easy.  It just takes planning.  So here is my   Food Storage Plan.  Go and Check them out.  I also left some of  the months with out recipies because I wanted the sisters to know that they could come up with thier own recipes.  I asked all the sisters to submit recipes that they used on a monthly basis and We will send them out  via email to everyone along with the goal for that month.  I hope that sisters and families can see how important it is to have a food storage.  Another web page I love is http://everydayfoodstorage.net/  Go and check her out it is amazing what she can do!!!!

Microwave on high for 1-3 min until milk is warm not hot.
Combine with yeast mixture.

Add:
4 eggs
mix again. Then Add flour alittle at a time until dough is soft with just a little sticky to it.
To much flour = bad dough
About 14 cups give or take alittle.

Let rise until double in size. Use oil on counter to roll out your dough and cut into strips or round doughnut like shapes.

Let rise on a greased pan for 20 min. Then bake at 350 for 12-15 min.

When done dip into a maple glazed sauce.
