birdie bread-kims way

Post by kimtoo »

Sue- I used 2 boxes of jiffy corn muffin mix, added 3 eggs (and the shells), instead of milk, i used a homemade veggie broth (tom, water, green beans, fresh spinich, carrots) and olive oil. In food processor diced fresh green beans, fresh spinich, carrots, zucchinni, yellow squash, tomatoes, a handful of fresh peppers, and fresh corn kernals cut off the cob. The little things I used a large handful, the big things, I used one large veg. oh, also threw in a big handful of flax seed and another of steel cut oats.

Wipe the inside of a glass cake pan with olive oil, bake at 400 for about 30 mins. Looks like a dense cake....ovens may vary!!! check for doneness.

The other thing I make fairly often is a sweet potatoe thing....cooked sp, add chopped apple and steel cut oats with about 1/2 c of water, microwave a minute, mush apples and oats into sp, sometimes I add banana too (after I cook it). I freeze portion sizes of everything so I don't have to deal with cooking every day and they still get good stuff.

If something seems off, let me know...going off the top of my head here.

Mik-w/o the peppers, or at least w/o as many of the, it would be good for you too! I threw in 3 habenaros and a few jalapenos...a bit hot :shock: ! I wouln't normally add so many, just was afraid they were on the edge of ripeness and wanted to use them. The birds love it so I guess they did not mind! :D

Imma have him make it and freeze it. I'll eat it! I'll eat anything if it will keep me from blowing away. :cry:

I want to try those weight gain shakes but my man said it would turn me into a dude. :cry:

So, when it rains I just run my lil **** under a clothes line and wait for the storm to pass. :cry:

Forgot to add:

I dont eat cows or chickens, pigs, goats, whatever, I dont eat things with eyes and a heart beat. I dont mind when others do it, to each there own but *Im* not able to find it in me to put an animal in my mouth and start chewing.

I spent many nights sitting at the table staring at a pig, cow, turtle, chitlets (pig intestines) whatever granny had whipped up. I was to eat it or I didnt get up.

She was trying to break me of it. It didnt work, she would have to wake me for school at the dinner table. Tired and hungry but I didnt eat that damn pig. I sure aint eating no cow.

I cant differentiate animals from food. Partly, from growing up on the rez, I believe. We always had animals everywhere. To me a cow is as precious as a doggie and has an even colder, wetter nose! lol

My men around here eat meat like Hanible Lector. The mere thoughts of putting a piece of meat into my mouth and chewing it TO ME is like ya'll watching fear factor and they are eating cock roaches.

I could just as easily eat a rouch as I could a cow. Baby is a cannible, enjoying chicken the most.

I feed my kids meat and know it can be good for you but a human DOES NOT NEED MEAT. As a matter of fact, we werent even made to eat meat. Dont believe me? Look at your teeth. Although, we have evolved some with our eye teeth growing longer for tearing. *tries not to puke*. There are a million different ways to get protein than meat.

The chewing of a dead animal or a pot of beans and collards. Beans and collards. If from the ground it doesnt grow, down my tummy it doesnt go. That bout sums it up and what I tell folks when I RSVP as not to have to explain for an hour.

GEEEEE ROOOOSS !!!!!!!!!

I like to add ceyanne pepper to those recipies too. Every time I make something for the birds, I try to do it a little differently, like one week spicy then fruity then veggie. Just to keep things interesting for them.

The mushed apple- I'd call it applesause sounds like a great addition they would love to their birdy bread.

Thanks for sharing!

:lol: Mik, this literally made me laugh out loud! Not that I'm laughing at you, just how you put things :) I'll give you some of my weight if you'll bless me with a skinny spell. *dreams of when I used to weigh 120* I got weighed yesterday before my medical procedure and the nurse said, "where do you hide it all?!" :oops: Which I guess is kind of a compliment but maybe it's muscle weight, but I feel gross!

Thanks for the recipe Kim. I'll have to try again, I have the double batch with soy milk and now since Nila vomited I'm afraid to give them to him again,
I froze them, except for the egg shells my hubby would eat them. I grated fresh zucchini and carrot and added frozen mixed veggies and oatmeal and the eggs and shells but added the soy milk to make it a little thinner to bake.

And Mik: sounds like you were a determined little thing as a child. Good for you. Should make you a more patient mom, remembering how determined you were.

And Missi: I have seen you and gross is not a word that comes to mind, more like HOT, or gorgeous, or wow!!!!
