Focaccia Pizza

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Toppings: Rao Pizza Sauce Sausage Links, cooked and cut Applegate Pepperoni Green Bell Pepper Mushrooms Olives Onions, Sautéed  Pizza-part bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Canning Green Beans

Green beans are something that grow a lot and fast in our garden. We typically plant an entire garden bed just with green beans or 50/50 green beans/peas. It is sometimes difficult to keep up with canning them as we harvest them. This year, I decided to freeze them while waiting to have enough to can, well that was a bad idea, when thawing them they got too soggy and did feel safe canning them. So, I started canning as I picked them. A trick I learned this year, when you do not have enough green beans, wrap them in damp paper towels and place in a ziplock (or air tight container, I used containers below) this keeps them fresh until you have enough. If you give this a try, let me know how it turned out for ya!
