NOTES
FROM NANCI
 Fall has
definitely come to Indiana! How do I know? The heat kicked on this
morning and neither Bob nor I jumped up to turn it off (we’re frugal
freaks!) It was COLD in the ole’ log home. This is the time of year when
I feel truly sorry for those of you who live where the seasons don’t
change. How can you live without seeing those beautiful trees? (I know.
The beaches and warm air make up for ‘em huh?)
Once the cooler weather hits I always feel like eating different foods.
The grill no longer has the same appeal. I want warm. I want simmering.
I want bowls and mugs. So with Tammy’s help I’m devoting this issue to
great fall foods – specifically crock pot recipes and
fresh-from-the-harvest apple recipes.
We all know that we should use our crock pots more. Nothing beats coming
home from a busy day to a house full of wonderful smells and a dinner
that’s ready to serve. We’ve put together some great recipes and tips
for you.
Another fall favorite of mine is apples. We have a great apple orchard
just a few miles away and love to go there every fall to take a ride out
to the pumpkin patch and then buy a variety of apples to take home. Of
course, over the years we have lost our teenagers’ participation in this
family activity. Something about riding on a hay wagon with your mom and
dad when you are 17, 14 and 12 just doesn’t appeal to the older ones.
But my baby Jenna is still loving it. At 9 years old she still loves to
pick out a pumpkin, weigh it on the scale and take it home and carve it
with her Daddy.
Click here to see a pix of Jenna and her 2002 pumpkin.
We’ve included some great apple info along with freezer tips and apple
recipes for you this month. Hope you love them as much as we do!
Great news! Our software is ready for purchase! A big thanks to Gaylen
and Shelley Miller from Advantage Cooking for their willingness to team
up with us and create a 30 Day Gourmet Edition of their quantity cooking
software. You can still download a free trial version of the software if
you’d like to take a look before you purchase.
Your reaction to our new Freezer Lunches to Go e-book has been
incredible! If you don’t have one yet, you need to check it out. It’s
not just about packing lunches for kids. This book is for EVERYONE!
Great info and recipes!
We’ll be releasing another great e-book just in time for the holidays.
Tammy, our message board moderator, is putting the finishing touches on
Freezer Desserts to Die For!. We’ve had requests for this one for a
long time. Check out the free sampler now. It includes the cover, table
of contents and three yummy dessert recipes.
Don’t miss our Do a Good Cooking Deed winner’s story this month.
You’ll think that I made this up. I couldn’t believe it either. Six
teenage boys freezer cooking for senior citizens and raising the money
to do it. Incredible! And did I mention that they are in England? Don’t
miss this story.
I also wanted you to have a brief explanation of the new banner ads that
you see on the site. As many of you know, it costs a bunch of money to
run a website like ours. We have over 750 pages on the site now (not
counting the message boards). I want to keep the site free and open to
all (except for those 50 recipes on the manual owners section☺) To do
that, I need to pull in some revenues by partnering with other sites.
It’s pretty simple. We show you their logo and link. If you click-over
and buy something from them I get a small percentage of your sale. To
give you an idea of the big bucks rolling in, I have made a whopping
$125 in the last 9 months through this venture. I’m hoping with the new
ads you’ll see some businesses that you would be frequenting anyway. You
will only see companies that I have checked out and that I have
purchased from myself. Thanks, cooks!

BONUS
RECIPES
Crock Pot
Recipes from Tammy
Everyone loves to use their crock pot… it makes the house smell great,
and it makes a tasty meal for you without a lot of effort. What if you
had the starts for some crock pot meals in your freezer? That would make
it even easier for you! Plan to use the crock pot for days you have
evening activities and help your dinner hour go even smoother! Haven’t
used your crock pot much or have some basic questions?
Click here to go
to some Q&A’s from Rival. They have some great tips and info!
I tried a couple of tips from our message boards, with great success!
Click here to read them.
Both of these tips are great, and you’ll probably say “Why didn’t I
think of that?”, just like I did! I came up with a similar tip of my
own. I have a round 6 quart crock pot. I found a plastic container in my
cupboard that was the same shape as my crock, and just a size smaller,
so it fits right inside the crock. Then I could put the meal for the
crock pot in the plastic container and freeze it. Then when I want to
cook or re-heat it, I just dip the plastic container in some hot water
to loosen the contents, and it slides right out into the crock pot,
ready to go. I also put the oven bag inside this container to freeze it.
It seemed to take too long to get my crock pot and the contents to cool,
so using this container seemed a better option.
Check out The Cook’s Corner message boards and the Crock Pot category
for more ideas. Like making baked potatoes in the crock pot! Or even
breakfast! I wouldn’t have thought of that one!
Click here to go to the
Crock Pot category of the message boards.
Note: The most common sizes of crock pots seem to be 3 quart and 6
quart. On the following recipes I’ve tested, I put an approximate under
the “Makes: “ column, so you know how full your crock pot will be. Or if
you’ll need to divide it into 2 meals!
Hot Sausage Sandwiches
This family favorite is just like the sandwiches you buy at the county
fair. Spicy and delicious! The sausage isn’t pre-cooked or in links… you
buy it at the fresh meat counter in your grocery store.
Click here to view/print the Hot Sausage Sandwich recipe.
Crock Pot Lasagna
Once you have the starter for this in the freezer, it only takes 2 hours
to cook in the crock pot! And smells wonderful!
Click here to view/print the Crock Pot Lasagna recipe.
Beef Stew
My husband loves this one! Get a head start on making it by having the
meat and broth in the freezer already.
Click here to view/print the Beef Stew recipe.
Hot Dogs and Pasta
You probably haven’t had a recipe like this one before… different, but
very tasty!
Click here to view/print the Hot Dogs and Pasta recipe.
Saucy Pork Chops
Another quick and easy one. If you have it in the freezer in a cooking
bag, it can go straight from the freezer to the crock pot.

Apple Recipes from Nanci
Jenna and I chose a great day to visit the apple orchard and pumpkin
patch last week. (Click here to see us). I know that having sliced
apples frozen and ready to go will save me a bunch of money over the
winter and give me lots more recipe choices. I bought a peck of apples
for $5.97 and brought them right home and started on apple recipes. I
got 36 C. out of a peck (.60 per cup) and here’s what I used them for:
6 C. used in Apple Dumplings
3 C. used in Apple Harvest Cake
1 C. used in Mom’s Oatmeal Apple Raisin Cookies
1 C. used in Apple Thumbprint Cookies
2 C. used in Pork Chops with Apple Gravy
8 C. used in Apple Pie Filling (2 pies)
9 C. vacuum packed and frozen in 3 C. portions
6 C. vacuum packed and frozen in 2 C. portions
Wish you knew how many cups of sliced, chopped apples there are in a
peck or a 5 pound bag a large apple for that matter?
Click here for a
good equivalency chart to go by when cooking with apples.
How do you pick the right apple for the job?
Click here for a great list
of apples varieties and their uses. I printed off a copy and put it in
my cooking note-book.
Wondering about freezing apples? Works great! You can even freeze them
whole (I didn’t know that!).
Click here for more info. The apples I
chose will work fine for baking and in sauces. Thawed apple slices for a
fresh fruit salad would require a firmer, crisper apple. I got out my
handy dandy vacuum sealer and it did a nice job. Now I have ready-to-go
apples in 2 and 3 Cup portions. Amazing how much that will help!
What new apple recipes did I come up with? Some really yummy ones,
according to my friends and family. Funny how people seem to know when
I’m testing recipes here. ☺
Pork Chops with Apple Gravy – Yum, yum. It tasted so good to eat pork
chops covered with something besides barbecue sauce or marinade. Great
flavor!
Click here to view/print the Pork Chops with Apple Gravy recipe.
Mom’s Apple Oatmeal Raisin Cookies – I found this recipe in my Mom’s
little red recipe box – all typed out on a 3x5 card. Did your moms do
that too? These are really good!

dough balls, ready-to-slice dough, and cooked, cooled and
ready-to-freeze cookies.
Apple Dumplings – I had never tried making apple dumplings before. They
sounded complicated but they’re really just little apple pies cooked
with that yummy syrup over them. I froze some uncooked and also some
cooked. Both were great!
Click here to view/print the Apple Dumplings recipe.
Apple Harvest Cake – I found this recipe in a 20 year old church
cookbook. Those ladies sure knew how to cook!
The cream cheese frosting is way too good but not at all necessary. Bob
has been eating a piece every night with a vanilla ice cream on the
side. I prefer it at breakfast!
Click here to view/print the Apple Harvest Cake recipe.
Apple Thumbprint Cookies – I invented this recipe when another one I
tried flopped. I couldn’t get the filling to stay inside the cookie so I
finally just made an indention and put the filling on top. That’s when
it reminded me of those thumbprint jam cookies my mom made every
Christmas. The apple and butter taste is so good – and rich!

MESSAGE BOARD UPDATES FROM
TAMMY
Happy Fall, everyone! I’m with Nanci… I love the changing colors on the
trees! My kids are still young enough to enjoy trips to the pumpkin
patch and apple orchard, so I get to enjoy them too. And I love the
smell of fresh applesauce cooking in the crock pot!
The message boards were busy again last month… 217 new posts! We met a
lot more 30 Day Gourmets through an “introduce yourself” thread.
Click
here to read it, and even introduce yourself!
We had an interesting post from a first timer…
click here to read it.
You’ll enjoy it whether you’ve ever had an assembly day or not!
Quite a few people shared new recipes. And someone even posted a “laugh
for the day” for us.
Click here for a chuckle!
Our webmaster has added a category to the message boards for you to
contact Carol, author of “Freezer Lunches To Go” e-book. And he will be
adding a new category any day now for the new software.
I’ve gotten a few questions recently by email from people wanting help
finding a recipe on the boards. So I thought I’d take a minute and
explain the search options we have on our site, so you can find what you
need when you need it. We have recipes on the message boards and under
the “Recipes” tab at the top of the site. These two areas are operated
separately, so you’ll have to look under each using different methods.
On the message boards, once you’re on a page with topics, there will be
a line of links at the top. They are: Home, FAQ’s, Search, Post New
Topic, etc. If you click on the Search link, it will take you to a page
asking for keywords. Type in the keyword you’re looking for. Hint: the
more keywords you put in, the more threads you’re going to have to
search through. I usually put in the least common keyword, and can find
what I’m looking for faster. Under the keyword box, are three different
places the system will look for your keyword(s). You can click Message
Author, Topic, or Message Content. Message Content is already checked…
you decide if you want the system to search the other two for you. Just
click on the box to check or un-check them. Then click Begin Search. In
a few seconds, the list of threads that match your keyword pop up on the
screen. You just have to read through them to find what you’re looking
for.
When you click on the “Recipes” tab at the top of the screen, it takes
you to a page where you can choose how to find what you’re looking for.
You can search by Type… beef, chicken, side dish, dessert, etc. Or you
can search by Source… Chewin’ the News, Winning Contest Entries, etc.
All the recipes are cross-referenced under both headings, so you can
find it using either one.
If you have any questions about finding recipes on our site, please let
me know! I’ll be happy to help you find what you’re looking for! If you
have any questions about our site or 30 Day Gourmet, email me at
tammy@30daygourmet.com.
I’d love to hear from you!

CONTEST
WINNERS
CRAZY COOK’S STORY APRON WINNERS –
chosen by Nanci from entries posted on the
message boards or sent by
e-mail to
nanci@30daygourmet.com
Our Crazy Cook for October is Lori S. from Coon Rapids,
Minnesota. Lori’s story hit home because I’ve been testing apple and
pumpkin recipes this week and Jenna and I have a “date” this afternoon
for a lesson in pie crust making. Lord, give me patience☺
Here’s Lori’s story:
A number of years ago (I won't say how many) when
I was just learning to cook at home, I asked my mother if I could make
some pumpkin bread. She was excited about my enthusiasm for cooking so
she willingly gave me the go ahead. I followed the recipe that I had
copied from a cookbook and put the two loaf pans in the oven to bake.
About 30 minutes later I checked my masterpiece only to discover that
they were still very runny. I looked over the recipe to see if I had
forgotten anything - nothing seemed all that unusual except for one
thing. My mother was working outside on the the yard when I walked up to
her and asked, "Mom, isn't bread supposed to have flour in it???" The
look on her face was enough to tell me that it should. Together we
looked over the recipe and discovered that instead of writing down 4
cups of flour, I had mistakenly written 4 cups of water. Needless to say
the pumpkin bread, or more appropriately, soup, didn't turn out. Mom was
always a good sport however, and didn't banish me from the kitchen. It
is because of her that I love to cook and bake today. My family loves to
help out in the kitchen too and I always try to remain as positive with
them as my mother was with me. My mother had the gift of patience I
believe. Who knows, maybe I will instill the love of cooking into their
hearts as well.
"DO A GOOD COOKING DEED" $25 WINNERS
Our Cook of the Month contest is changing to the “Do a Good Cooking
Deed” contest. Tell me how you use 30 Day Gourmet cooking to help others
and if your story is chosen I’ll send you $25. Again, you can submit
your story by
e-mail or on the
message boards. It’s okay to nominate someone else, too.
Our October “Do a Good Cooking Deed” award goes to 5 awesome
young men who live in England. They were nominated by Nicola, an
employee of the home where they live and an avid 30 Day Gourmet cook.
I’m doubling the award this month since it will be split 5 ways. Great
job, boys! Here’s the story that Nicola told me recently by e-mail.
I’d like to nominate the Kids in a Children’s
home that I am associated with for your “Do a Good Cooking Deed”
contest.
First, let me set the scene a little:
These kids are not living with their parents either because their
parents abused them – so they were taken away or because their parents
couldn’t handle them, and they are in a children’s home rather than
foster care because after a number of foster care providers tried,
they proved too much to handle!
We have five boys - all teenagers. They all display “challenging”
behavior (in other words they are difficult – complete nightmares!)
and a couple have mild ADHD!
Anyway about a month ago when they went back to school it was
approaching Harvest festival time, we had a house meeting and one of
the boys wanted to do something for the old people in the area for the
harvest festival, but he wanted to do something different from just
buying a few tins of food. One of the other boys suggested that they
all cooked a few cakes, and then one bright spark suggested that they
make some food to put in the freezer – as he had heard me mention that
I do. He told the others that it would be a great idea as we have
three freezers, and I am always saying how much money I save with
freezer cooking! Everyone thought this was a splendid idea! I agreed
thinking that once we started planning the cooking out and worked out
how much it would cost their enthusiasm would soon disappear...

October Recipe of the Month – Garlic Toast
Our Recipe of the Month winner is Angel Sweezea, from Michigan.
Angel’s recipe for Garlic Toast is a tasty and economical alternative to
the expensive garlic toast you buy from the freezer at your local
grocery store. It’s quick and easy to make too!
The recipe has Italian seasoning in it, which is different from your
“normal” garlic bread. I bought a bottle of Italian seasoning in the
spice section of the grocery store. It is a mix of herbs… marjoram,
thyme, rosemary, savory, sage, oregano and basil. It adds nice color and
flavor to the garlic bread.
The recipe easily mixes up by hand, and is very easy to spread on the
bread slices. The amount of spread the recipe makes was perfect for me!
I got a nice medium coating on both sides of the bread, and didn’t have
any leftovers. I used it all. And don’t do what I did! I knew I had
garlic powder in my spice basket, but I didn’t think the look at the
amount I needed and compare that to how much I had. The standard spice
bottle is about 4” tall, and 1/4 C. of spice will use 1/3 to 1/2 of that
bottle. Thankfully, I just had enough and didn’t have to run to the
store for more!
My husband and I both liked this recipe. 7 year old Gabe’s first comment
was “Is it supposed to be green?” because of the Italian seasonings. He
quickly decided he liked it better than the kind I usually make, which
is the brand name frozen from the grocery store. Gideon and Savannah
both liked it too. He liked the crunchy outside and she liked the soft
inside. Savannah, who is 9 1/2, said it “ tastes awkward when you first
eat it.” which I thought was an interesting comment! When I asked her to
explain, she said it just tasted different than she expected it to when
she took her first couple of bites. Not different in a bad way, but her
tongue had to get used to the flavor from the Italian seasoning.
We like Parmesan cheese at my house, so I didn’t add it when I made this
recipe. Everyone would eat it just because of the Parmesan, and I wanted
their opinions not to be influenced by that. But I will probably add the
Parmesan next time I make it. I will also add more garlic powder next
time. We like garlic… I always sprinkle garlic powder on the garlic
bread I buy from the store before I put it in the oven for a stronger
garlic flavor.
Overall, this is a great recipe! Very flavorful, easy to make, and
adjustable for your family’s taste. As well as saving you money over
buying frozen pre-made garlic toast. Can’t beat that!
Click here to view/print the Garlic Toast recipe.
Let’s meet Angel, our winner.
I am a stay at-home, home schooling mom of 3 kids,
ages 6,7 and 8. I have been doing once-a-month cooking ever since I got
married 11 years ago. When I found 30 Day Gourmet I was so excited. I
love the variety of recipes and the worksheets make planning so easy! I
like being able to add my own recipes, especially because I am always
experimenting in the kitchen. My hobbies are cooking-of course,
stamping, knitting and I am learning to spin wool into yarn. My cooking
days are usually a whole weekend when I try to do enough meals to last
at least 3-4 months. I also do mini-cooking days to keep stocked up on
lunches and snacks. I like being able to entertain, or have a meal for
someone at a moments notice. It leaves time to enjoy all the other great
things in life!
Thanks for sharing such a great recipe, Angel! Your prize check is in
the mail!
You can get in on the winning too! Just post your favorite freezer
recipe on the message boards under the appropriate category. Be sure to
include freezer directions. Happy cooking! And freezing!!

 We
love 30 Day Gourmet here in the United Kingdom! Please help me
out with some of your cooking terms and measurements. What’s
powdered sugar? How much does a cup of flour weigh? What’s the
Centigrade equivalent of 350 degrees Fahrenheit? |

A. |
Wow! I
didn’t realize that our website was being visited by so many different
countries until I took a look at the stats recently.
The internet has some excellent resources for those of you who are
trying to understand our American terms and measures. It would be good
for all of us to make copies of these pages. I come across British terms

Enjoy this
fall season – whether that means falling leaves and
frosty mornings or sandy beaches and warm breezes.
Again, thank you for the great e-mails. I just love
reading about your cooking adventures and the
incredible ways that you have put our ideas and
recipes to use.

Happy Cooking,
Nanci
P.S. Some of you have asked about the progress on our
log home. Last week we celebrated the 4th anniversary
of our “move in”. And last week I celebrated the
installation of a toilet, shower, hot tub and sinks in
our master bathroom.
Click here to take a look. I love it – and I
love my dear hubby who has been building this place in
his “spare time” for 5 years.
