So we had a ton of watermelon. We LOVE it.K can eat so much of it. BUt...it still has the possibility of going bad in this house. (i pick the big ones, what can i say;)
So we made some smoothies.
YUMM
We have issues on weather we should make smoothies or milkshakes. I always vote milkshakes, but sometimes the hubs just wants a smoothie. So I just add a scoop of vanilla to the bottom of my glass before adding the smoothie.....more like an icee sometimes. lol
This one is just watermelon, orange juice, and ice....and some sugar. very yummy. very watermeloney. haha.
So the next day, we added some strawberries. not much, but it made it taste FAB.u.LouS!
I'm pretty handy with the blender.
I've learned to add cantaloupe to every smoothie, you can't taste the difference! Its awesome! A good way to use the cantaloupe since k doesn't really eat it and I will only if there is nothing else. But....we got this:
and it has cantaloupe.....it also had: strawberries, blueberries, bananas, jicama (weird, btw), red potatoes, broccoli, cucumber, tomatoes-on the vine, romaine lettuce, and a bag of green beans!! yummy!!! We also got the tortilla add-on (3 pkg of 12 -small corn, small flour, and large flour tortillas) and the 9-grain bread add-on (5 loaves!!! ---sliced!:)
This is a lot of food.
Most of the tortillas are in the freezer (including a 13x9 pan of enchiladas) as are 3 loaves of bread.
We will use it though! Nothing needs to go to waste. lol. Maybe that's why my freezer is FULL. Drew and I only eat so much, so even leftovers get frozen sometimes. But that just makes for a QUICK dinner if we don't have time or ingredients to make something else. It has been fun!!
I even have about 3 lbs of ground beef in separate containers, already cooked and ready to be thawed and thrown into something---a little trick I learned from Jane--THANK YOU! Big lifesaver....timesaver there.
Now all i'm thinking about is food....might have to go use some of my bounty! :)
