Hello my dear friends! I am sorry to have been away for so long, but boy, moving take a bit of effort! While we aren’t quite settled completely, we are moved, and are settling into a new normal. Tummy Treasure now comes to you live from Appleton, Wisconsin, and we’re […]

Freezer Madness Continues
I’m on a roll this week! Not only am I being uber-ambitious about eating out of the freezer, but I’m finding a few spare minutes to blog about it! Later today I may tackle my most ambitious freezer meal yet, but this one from last night ranks right up there […]
Chicken Spaghetti Soup
This eating out of the freezer business is really challenging me to the fullest! We’re trying to eat as much out of it as possible for moving purposes mostly, but also, it’s in sore need of a defrosting, as it’s been a few years since it has been done. While […]
When Things Go Very Wrong
This was one of those days where I really had to reach into my bag of tricks and pull out a rabbit. We’ve been working very diligently on eating the contents of the freezer, pantry and fridge. I have to say, our meals have become quite clever sometimes, although not […]
Here, Have A Cookie
Do you ever have a lone brown banana just sitting around? You know, you don’t have enough banana to make banana bread or banana cake, but you feel guilty tossing this very brown banana which is beyond edible? Well, do what I did and make some cookies out of it! […]
Roasting A Leg of Lamb
Over the last few years, our family has become a bit of a fan of lamb. We don’t have it very often because it is on the pricey side, but when we do have it, we’re all so happy. The thing is though, up until yesterday, we’ve only ever had […]
Incredibly Easy Enchiladas
I love enchiladas. I don’t make them near enough, because normally my kids don’t care for them so much. But they are a great way to use up leftovers in a completely different way. Pretty much anything can be rolled up into an enchilada! So I thought I’d share my […]
For The Love Of Pie
I know. You thought that I had let another Pi Day go by without nary a mention here on the blog. The fact was, I remembered it very well. I remembered it so well, that I decided to try a new-to-me pie. And then, not only was it a new-to-me […]
Dear Jamie Oliver,
It was the moment of ultimate irony last night. We were watching the introduction to your new show, Jamie’s Food Revolution, when breaking news cut in that congress had passed a health care bill. Health care that wouldn’t be as needed if the people in our country could learn to […]
Pepperoni Fun
When you make pizza as often as we do, which seems to be a lot lately, you’re always on the lookout for new pizza toppings. Granted, you can top them with just about anything and they turn out spectacularly. Take for instance, this amalgamation of pizza. Instead of pizza sauce, […]
Homemade Buttery Spread
I’m not sure what to call this stuff. My post the other day about eating real food caused me to reflect on what we spread on bread. Traditionally, we don’t use butter in my house. I don’t buy margarine either, but I do buy butter spreads- our favorite being Brummel […]
Real Food.
This is a post I’ve been mulling over for a while now. Every time I think about writing it, I discard the idea because it just sounds too preachy to me. (At least in my head.) I decided a long time ago to not get on the preachy soapbox when […]
