Preserving Celery! Tips for freezing: for the best texture freeze only the stalks and freeze on a sheet pan before transferring to freezer bags. @stasherbag  Dehydrating: Dehydrate for 10-12 hours on your veggie setting (125°) until crunchy. If using a traditional oven use your lowest setting, stir often, until crunchy. (You might need to take the leaves out early so they don’t burn) Celery Salt: Mix 1/4 cup dried celery (leaves or pulverized stems) and 1 cup salt. Mix well.  #celery #celeryjuicebenefits #healthyeating #foodpreservation #preserving #salt #urbanhomestead #canning #slowliving #zerowaste #lowwaste #lowwasteliving #denver

My daily lemon/ACV/ginger water… but make it ASMR! 🍋 I like hot water in the morning, but not *scalding* so these ice cubes are perfect! *Note: ACV shouldn’t be frozen for long amounts of time- it can dilute it’s acidity after time.  #asmr #asmrsounds #asmrvideo #asmrfood #urbanhomestead #lowwaste #zerowaste #slowliving #immunesupport #immunityboost #Sustainability #holistichealth #healthyliving #lowwasteliving
Most mornings the first thing I do when I get into the kitchen is make a mug of hot water and add in premade ice cubes of lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and ginger. However, there are some days, especially in the middle of the winter that I feel like I need something a little extra- for my immune system and my tastebuds! So, for those occasions I make fun Immunity Tea Pops that are filled with ingredients that will help support your immune system while still tasting great! Immunity Tea Pop Ingredients 6 Inches Ginger Root 6 Inches Turmeric Root 6 Lemons (organic)* 1.5 Cups Hot Water 1 Cup Hibiscus-Echinacea Tea ¼ Cup Echinacea Purpurea Herb 2 Tbs Hibiscus Leaf 1 Tsp Black Pepper, Ground Lemongrass, 3” per Pop Combine echinacea and hibiscus in a tea strainer and steep in the hot water for ten minutes. Strain the solids and let cool.
 Remove the skin (I use a spoon!) of the turmeric and ginger roots and break down into smaller pieces. Add to a high-speed blender. (I use a @vitamix )
 Scrub the lemons clean and then break down into eighths. Remove all the seeds and add to the roots in the blender.
 Add 1 cup of the steeped tea and the teaspoon of black pepper into the blender and combine well. The mixture will be thick and slightly grainy but still can be poured. If it is too thick to work with, add in more of your steeped tea!
 Pour into ice cube molds and add a stick of turmeric as a ‘handle.’ Freeze overnight and then transfer to an airtight container.
 To use add about two ounces of ice cubes to a 12 ounce mug and pour hot water over the cube to melt. To hurry the melting process, use the lemongrass ‘handle’ to bob the cube! #urbanhomestead #lowwaste #zerowaste #slowliving #immunesupport #immunityboost #Sustainability #holistichealth #healthyliving #lowwasteliving #citrusrecipe #Denver #immunity #turmeric #wellness #wellnessshots

Preserving Leeks Three Ways! 🌱 💨 Dehydrating:  Wash and prep your leeks by removing the stem and separating the leaves from the stalks, chop the stalks into medallions, then let dry then dehydrate in either a dehydrator for 6-8 hours at 120° (right between the veggie and herb settings) or in the oven set to its lowest temperature until crispy. Store the stalks in an airtight container. I use a @excaliburdehydrator  🌱 Leek Powder: Pulverize dehydrated leek leaves into a powder and sift through a sieve.  🧊 For Freezing: Blanch your prepped leeks in boiling water for 30 seconds then transfer to an ice bath for a minute. Dry well, arrange on lined baking sheets to freeze overnight, then transfer to airtight containers. (I’m using @stasherbag ) 🫙For Pickling: Makes Two Pints 3 Cups Sliced Leeks 1 Cup Vinegar (I did half white wine vinegar, half white vinegar) 1 Cup Water 2 Sprigs Each of Rosemary, Thyme, and Sage 1 Tbs Sea Salt 2 Tsp Black Peppercorns 1 Tsp Sugar 1 Tsp Celery Seed 🌱 In a saucepan combine vinegar, water, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil to create a brine. Add half of the leeks, spices, and herbs into each jar. Top with hot brine, add a lid. Let cool and then pop in the fridge for 72 hours before using. Will store for about 8 weeks.  #foodpreservation #foodwaste #reducewaste #lowwaste #lowwasteliving #zerowaste #recipes #leek #vegan #canning #dehydratedfood #urbanhomestead #denver #leeks #slowliving
This high protein butternut soup is super flavorful, really filling, and freezes well! By the way- this post is not sponsored. I’ve loved (and posted about) @Souper Cubes for years and the family behind the small business just lost their home- which is also their content studio- in the Los Angeles fires. So feel free to tag them in your own Souper Cubes content and give them a follow to help support as they rebuild! Ingredients 2 Lbs Butternut Squash, cubed ½ Lb Carrots, chopped 1 Medium Sweet Potato, cubed 2 Bell Peppers, chopped and seeded 1 Head Garlic, cleaned 1 Quart Vegetable Stock 1 Can (15oz) Navy Beans, drained 1.5 Cups Cottage Cheese 1 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 Tsp Smoked Paprika 2 Sprigs Fresh Thyme 1 Sprig Fresh Rosemary Salt and Pepper, to taste Preheat your Oven to 425 Degrees.
 Remove the skin and seeds of the butternut squash, peel the sweet potato, and de-seed the peppers. You can leave the skin of the carrots on.
 Toss your veggies, the cloves on an entire head of garlic, sprigs of fresh thyme and rosemary, and a tablespoon of olive oil into a large oven-safe pot.
 Roast for 50 minutes or until all the veggies are easily pierced by a fork.
 Remove the sprigs of fresh herbs then add in the drained can of beans and the cottage cheese.
 Using a stick blender (or transferring to a regular blender) blend the veggies well, and then add in vegetable stock and continue to blend until you get the consistency that you’d like!
 Flavor with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper and blend once more.
 Eat as is or freeze! This will be fresh in the fridge for about five days, freeze for long-term storage for up to 6 months. #SouperCubes #lowwasteliving #lowwaste #highprotein #urbanhomestead #foodpreservation #mealprep #healyrecipe #wellness #Denver #vegetarianrecipe #vegetarian #slowliving #foodstorage
