This farina recipe will make anywhere between 5-10 servings, depending on how large a breakfast you like :) Once cooked, you can place into portion-sized containers, take to work, and then heat in the microwave. Making this on the weekend can save you valuable time during the week.
Ingredients for slow cooker farina
What You Need:
2 Cups- farina
1/2 Cup brown sugar or honey (cinnamon sugar is perfect just omit the 1-tsp of cinnamon)
1/2 Cup White sugar (if you think this might be too sweet for you, reduce to 1/4 cup)
If you’re looking for a great tasting chili, but want to go sans meat, then this is the chili you need to try. While the chili is entirely vegetarian, you wouldn’t know it by tasting it.
This goes great with nacho chips, naan bread (Naan Bread recipe here), crackers, or just by itself. You can eat it heated or cold; makes no difference, as it tastes great either way. So, without further ado…
Ingredients for chili
What you Need:
1- Cup of lentils (rinsed)
½ Cup of Quinoa (rinsed well)
1- Onion (diced) (red for a sweeter taste or white for stronger taste)
1- Bell pepper (any color, but I used red)
5- Carrots (peeled and diced. You can just slice them for a heartier texture)
While it is very easy to just go to the store and buy your own onion salt, you might want to take a moment and see just how inexpensive and easy it is to make your own. If you have a pantry, there is a good chance that you already have sea salt and onion powder. If not, you can get them from the bulk bin at your local store. For example, at Winco, sea salt goes for around $0.24 per lb, while onion powder sells for about $3.64 per lb.
In the stores, you can purchase a 5.5 oz bottle of onion salt for around $2.93 or a 32 oz bottle for just over $12. By making your own, you can save around $1.50 for a 5.5 oz size or $8.00 for 32 oz. Oh, and by the way, you can also make garlic salt by following the same directions.
The only important part to remember, is to follow the ratio of 3:1: That is, 3 parts salt to 1 part onion powder. You can use any measuring device you wish, just keep to that 3:1ratio and you'll be fine.
For example, let's say you just need to make a small amount; you can use a teaspoon for measurement. If you need a larger amount, you can use a 1/3 measuring cup (which is what I used when making this).
