Quick and Easy Whole Wheat Irish Soda Bread Recipe

on
Coffee and whole wheat toast are one of my breakfast mainstays. St. Patrick’s Day is coming up so why not whip up a loaf of Irish Soda Bread one of the greatest gifts this Lazy Budget Chef (who can’t proof bread to save her life) has ever known – the bread machine. As luck would have it I have more whole wheat flour than white and more raisins than normal because I went to a bulk bin without a container and bought more raisin than I thought. No problem. I’ll make a Irish style whole wheat bread featuring those those happy raisins sitting in my kitchen. I am using the bread machine to make and proof the dough for this recipe and baking the bread in the oven because I want the round shape of a traditional Irish style bread. You can bake it that way or you can bake the whole wheat Irish bread from start to finish in a bread machine. It will taste just the same although I personally think baking bread in the bread maker makes it a little more dense than when I bake bread machine do

Eat from the Pantry Recipe: Spicy Tuna and Caper Pasta

on
Yesterday the cupboard and refrigerator were a bit bare after cleaning them out before a weekend trip.  I thought it best to eat lunch before I went grocery shopping later that day. If I didn't, I knew I"ll fall into any of the traps in my Six Hidden Grocery Budget Busters post.


  This  pasta with tuna and capers recipe took around 10-15 minutes to make and all with basic pantry staples.

I poked around the pantry and found some pouches of tuna fish behind a jar of capers. I vaguely remember buying capers for a tuna fish recipe I saw in passing online. Unfortunately I apparently pinned every other recipe to my Pinterest boards except the tuna and caper recipe I saw and intended to eventually make.


With the help of my BFF Google, I may not have found the original tuna and caper pasta dinner recipe but instead I found a better one.  I whipped up Simply Recipe's Pasta with Tuna and Capers in White Wine Sauce  with pantry staples for lunch. Yum!


 Here's a photo of the not fancy plated version of the recipe.

 So good. So quick. So easy to make.

I made sure to pin it to my Pinterest recipe board so I can find the recipe and make it again in the future. Follow me @condoblues on Pinterest for more recipe ideas!

 What is your favorite way to serve tuna fish?
