Just hearing the words "sloppy joe" from someone sugguesting what to eat for dinner sends my tummy into a tizzy. This is a pressure canning recipe for makig sloppy joe mix during the summer for year 'round enjoyment. Making the sloppy joes is as simple as browning the meat, draining the fat, and adding the sauce and bringing to a boil. Serve with hamburger buns and enjoy. Much cheaper than store bought kind.

I love using fresh rosemary in my pickled carrots. You can also add fresh dill if you like. I also love using mixed peppercorns of black and while, green and red peppercorns. However, you can use plain black peppercorns and fresh baby carrots. I love the well rounded and blended flavor these give. The reason I am fixated on carrots as it is harvest time and I love preserving the fresh harvest as it comes in. You can easily make a double on this recipe if you buy enough, or cut it in half, if that's all you can harvest. The recipe given makes 6 pint jars.

 Drying banana chips in a food dehydrator is not difficult. It simply takes bananas, and a bit of patience. Dehydrating your own food is also a great way to preserve food. I love to take banana chips out on hikes, or use them as one of my snacks, ether mid-afternoon, or in the late evening instead of ice-cream. Dried banana chips take up less space and weight and are a great way to take advantage of sales.

I first read about watermelon rind pickles when I was 8 years old from the Little House on the Prairie books. The book, Farmer Boy, was about Laura Ingles' husband, and they made Watermelon rind pickles when he was a little boy. I am sure this darling recipe goes way back. It is a very delightful delicacy, and I have included it in my collection of caning recipes since I was a youngin' myself.

Drying Carrots is an easy way to get into drying foods. Carrots can be sliced or diced. Either way they go into soups, and chilis so wonderfully later on.

I love salsa, my family loves salsa, and most likely you and your family love salsa. It is one of the best selling snack foods. It is served on every table in every Mexican restant in America. It is so easy to make, and has so many differnt kinds based on location, and season of what is fresh. This Simple Salsa is really easy, chop everything, bring to a boil and process into 6 pint jars of a nice salsa.
