We've Been Duped!

This morning I made blueberry muffins from scratch.  They were amazing!  And honestly, they did not take any more time to make than if I had used a mix.  We have gotten so used to using boxes of mix to make food items, that we have come to think that it is the only way to cook.  It has been long enough that most of us don't even know how to make things from scratch.  Real food is cheaper, it tastes better, and it is so much healthier!  So how do we get back to cooking?  We need to try some real recipes and cook from scratch.  We need to teach our kids to do it.  I thought I would post links here to some "from scratch" recipes that I like to use.  Give it a whirl and let me know what you think!

Blueberry Muffins--Tip, use frozen blueberries and roll them in flour before adding them to the batter.

Pancakes--I added a little bit of vanilla.
