Homemade McChicken

M cChicken sandwich, spicy or regular, has always been a household favorite until McDonalds started adding crap to the recipe. I used to work at McDonalds when I was 16 years old, things have def changed from then to now. Season it how you wish, I just throw a bunch of spices in and call it good! Does not matter what you use.  You Will Need: Ground Chicken Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika  Breadcrumbs  Flour Egg Wash Mayo Buns Lettuce Tomato After you form patties, freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Once frozen, dip in flour, egg then bread crumbs and deep fry until golden brown and 165 degrees temp reached inside. 

Canning Storage

 

Every year my canning supple seems to grow and grow. This year, we upped our gardening, went to the farm close by us and got to work. And this was a LOT of work but very rewarding at the same time. In the Spring of 2023, we plan to expand the garden even more. We have already added 2 peach trees, 4 apple trees, 1 pear tree, 1 plum tree, 5 blueberry bushes and 2 elderberry bushes. This is literally going to be a dream back yard for me. Only thing more I wanna do is fix our fence (nothing is wrong with it, just do not like the look of it, our lab dog Sadie tends to bark at people whom she can see, if I redo the fence, it'll block her view), and a patio (we still have yet to decide, cement or wood...hard decisions). But 1 step at a time, for now, we wait for our blueberry bushes so we can plant them..we have the new garden area prepped for dirt, just waiting on the bushes to get the compost/dirt in. In the meantime, here is what all we canned this year. Here is our shelves. I lost some footage from the SD card I had just bought (it stopped reading on everything, so odd) but we built this ourselves and it was such a blast and learning experience.
