{freezer cooking} Quiche Muffins

I have aspirations of having a freezer full of yummy food to pull out at random for my family's eating pleasure. I have yet to make this happen. However, occasionally I do whip up an extra casserole or something to pop in the freezer so that it isn't completely bare in there.

This past week I decided that having something easy for breakfast would be nice to have around. Something besides Eggos, you know.

So I thought why not make up a batch of muffin-sized quiches and freeze those! I have a great Quick Quiche recipe that works great (no crust needed!) and it turned out well in muffin form. I also used my handy silicone muffin cups which made the whole process unbelievably easy. I highly recommend these! My mom gave me this set so I'm not exactly sure where they came from, but I know you can find them online.

Just one batch of the following recipe made 15 of these muffins!

Quick Quiche

3 eggs

1/2 cup Bisquick mix

1/2 cup butter, melted

1-1/2 cups milk

1/4 tsp. salt

Pepper, to taste

1 cup shredded cheese, your choice

1/2 cup or so of cooked meat, your choice (ham, sausage, bacon, etc.)

1/2-1 cup of veggies, your choice (onions, peppers, broccoli, mushrooms,

spinach....the list is endless--steamed or sauteed veggies work best).

*****

Mix eggs, Bisquick, butter, milk, salt, and pepper together very well.

Stir in shredded cheese, any meat and veggies

(although if you just wanted to keep it plain you can do that, too).

Pour batter into your muffin cups (if using a muffin tin, I recommend

using foil liners). Bake at 350 for

25-30 minutes or until set and browned.

Let cool for 10 minutes or so before removing.

For freezing, I layered these in a Ziploc freezer bag with wax paper

in between so they wouldn't stick together.

(If you want to make one whole quiche,

just pour this mixture into a pie plate and

bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes).

Just take one out of the freezer and microwave for about 1 minute on defrost and 30 seconds at full power.

The Making of an Egyptian Death Mask

We are learning all about the ancient world this year with Story of the World I and loving it! We've been learning a lot about Egypt, of course, which is completely fascinating. Most recently we have studied the New Kingdom of Egypt, which includes the story of King Tut. So we decided making an Egyptian death mask in the style of King Tut's would be a fun project. First since it was too cold at the time to paper mache in the garage (it probably would have frozen instead of dried-ha) and it was too messy to do it in the house, we decided to pick up a couple of cheap craft masks at Hobby Lobby. Next we cut out cardboard shapes to complete the shape of the death mask, attaching them with hot glue. Vince even put a little detail on the *beard* with the hot glue per The Princess' request. Then the kiddos started to paint them with this metallic gold tempera paint. It worked okay for the cardboard, but would not coat the plastic of the mask. We thought maybe a second coat

1st Day Back to {home}School, Among Other Things

We did it! We finally got unpacked enough and got our new learning room organized enough to start back to school! Frankly, I was starting to get worried...ha Today went very well though. So far I am extremely pleased with our new curriculum choices for math and language arts. Now, if I could just actually get some lesson planning done... And get the finishing touches done in the learning room, so I can blog it! In other news, it has been a bit of a traumatic week...pet-wise. Last weekend a sweet friend (who had asked my permission beforehand) brought the kiddos their very own little fish tank with two goldfish. Well, on Sunday we noticed that The Princess' fish was pretty lethargic...dead, actually. She was sad, but she handled it fairly well. And we went to the store that evening and let her pick out a new goldfish. Well, today during our school time~the fish tank is in our learning room~we noticed Mr. B's fish was acting funny. And then he was dead. It was a

Door Hanger Chore Charts

My kids have had a chore chart for a while. It's one of those magnetic boards and they share it. However, it's not by their rooms and often they (and I) forget to update it. Plus it's a little bulky. When I saw the concept of a door hanger chore chart on Pinterest, I loved it! It was compact, right there were the kiddos could see it coming out and going into their rooms, and it costs almost nothing to make. I headed over to one of my favorite stores: Hobby Lobby, of course. They have these little wooden door hangers for .79. I also grabbed a couple of packets of decorative buttons for $1.99 each. I already had the clothes pins and the paint so those cost me nothing. I began by painting the door hangers (I used tempera paints because that's what I had). Then I grabbed a fine point Sharpie and the clothes pins and started writing chores on them, making sure to write them correctly so they will clip on the right direction. The left
