Tummy Yummy Tuesday July 28

Posted by Holly Nelson on Monday, July 27, 2009 Under: Tummy Yummy Recipe of the Week

I will be traveling tomorrow, Tuesday, so I will post this recipe early. And it's good thing because this is a very tummy yummy recipe!! It is frugal but not healthy. This is my very own recipe that I made on accident. When making a flour mixture for fried veggies, you mix flour and cornmeal. Well, my kitchen is very dark and I am going blind in one eye and I thought I was mixing flour and cornmeal. When everyone started trying our yummy fried veggies (from the garden) they said, "These are awfully sweet!". But they loved it. Okay, one person said they liked the original recipe better. So, try it and I hope you like it! I bet the kids will eat their veggies!

Sweet Fried Veggies
~1 c flour
~1 c powdered sugar
~1 c milk
~1 egg, beaten in with the milk
~ Chopped veggies( green tomatoes, squash, zucchini, okra,etc)
~ Oil in very hot pan, lower temp when you start cooking veggies.
1. mix the flour and sugar in a pie plate or cake pan
2. mix the egg and milk.
3. dip chopped veggies in milk, then flour. Then repeat for thicker coating.
4. drop in hot oil. turn after a few minutes until golden brown.
5. Lay on paper towels to drain excess oil.

*** If you don't want sweet and would rather have the original recipe:
Substitute powdered sugar with cornmeal

"Let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a quiet and gentle sprirt, which is precious in the sight of God." 1 Peter 3:4 - "An excellent wife,who can find? Her worth is far above jewels." Proverbs 31:10 ~~ I am a stay-at-home-mom(SAHM) married to the love of my life, Jeff Nelson. We have six wonderful boys. Ryan(13), Seth(11), Ian(8), Noah(5), Luke(4), and Jack (born April 2010). We live in Tennessee on 4 acres. I grew up the first few years of my life on a dairy farm in Missouri and loved country living. I was saved at a young age by the grace of God and shed blood of Jesus during that time of simple country living. That part of my life is very dear to me. God taught me many things as a baby Christian that I can still think about today. Then we moved to Memphis when I was in the 5th grade. I learned to love the city life, too. It was a completely different way of life. My whole family still lives in Missouri, still does a little farming and simple country living. When Jeff, the kids, and I moved from the city to the country, I incorporated my city life with my country background. My mom laughs at me when I cut my grass on my John Deere tractor while drinking my Starbucks Mocha and wearing my fancy sunglasses. And when I am shampooing my carpet in my high-heeled black boots. I just love those boots! But I would love to share about how I got to be the way I am today, The Victoriously Organized Woman! I used to work as a supervisor at bank for years. I had to dress up everyday. After the birth of our second child we decide I should be a SAHM. One of the best decision I've ever made. But I made a bad decision, too. I hardly ever dressed up anymore. I hardly ever wore make-up. After about a year I looked in the mirror and said, "OH MY! Jeff has to come home to this!?!" He is so wonderful he said he liked me that way, "natural". Well , I realized that I didn't. It made me feel bad about myself. I felt disorganized, tired and stressed and a little "rough" looking. I felt I just couldn't get it all done. At this time I was diagnosed with Meniere's Disease. I wasn't able to do certains things. Like mop the floor of my completely hardwood floor home that I was obsessed about keeping clean. The doctor told me I couldn't have salt, caffeine, or stress! "What?! Are you kidding!?" So , then I decided to change my routine,thought pattern, and cooking. I began to get up early, shower and dress, put on make up. Always being ready to leave whenever I needed to. I established routines that helped me eliminate extra cleaning and stresses. I was able to make more time for myself and make more time for my family. And the family had more time for each other. I made more time for God and others. This made me feel better about myself. I am so happy about how this changed my life I want to share it with everyone.
