All Purpose Cleaner DIY

Pin to Pinterest

Making your own all-purpose cleaner could not be easier, is cheaper and is so much safer than the chemical filled bottles you pick up at the store. 4 ingredients are all you need (and maybe a little elbow grease) to create a safe, effective, and wonderfully scented cleaner that can be used on counters, appliances, floors, or anywhere else you need to clean and disinfect. The scent is lovely, fresh, and bright!

Ingredients:

1 Cup Water
1 Cup Vinegar
2 tsp. Dish Soap or Castile Soap
10 drops Lavender Essential Oil
10 drops Lemon Essential Oil (also nice with Orange)
Spray Bottle

Directions:

The first time you make this, purchase vinegar in the large glass bottle. When you need more Vinegar, it is more cost effective to purchase it by the gallon and refill (earth friendly too).
Pour all ingredients into a Spray Bottle. Plastic tends to erode so try a glass spray bottle if you are usuing this solution long term. A Mason Jar works great too.
Swirl gently to combine.
Spray and wipe.

Enjoy.

You will have an initial light vinegar scent after use but that will dissipate when the vinegar dries. Vinegar and oils will cut grease, disinfects, and deodorize surfaces.

I suggest testing this out on your counter tops and floors before use. I do not recommend it on Travertine or Marble.

Chocolate Dipped Cookie Dough Bites

Pin to Pinterest

I am incredibly guilty. If there was a self-help group for eating chunks of cookie dough, I would be a member. This yummy recipe includes a few of my favorites in chocolate chip cookies – brown sugar, butter, vanilla and NO EGGS! You will be happy to delcare this as your family’s favorite cookie recipe!

Note: For Easter, we shapped these into Eggs!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2/3 cup Flour
1/4 cup Chocolate Chips
4 tbsp softened Butter
2 tbsp Milk
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Vanilla
8 oz Chocolate Dipping Candy

Directions:

Line a tray with parchment or wax paper.
Heat flour in microwave for 2 minutes (internal temp 160). Careful you do not burn it.
Mix together brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt until well mixed.
Add in milk and gradually add flour until desired dough consistensy is reached.
Stir in chocolate chips.
For Easter, we chose to form these into egg shapes (you can do another shape like circles.)
Place in freezer for at least 30 minutes.
Melt chocolate by microwaving for 30 seconds, stirring and repeating until melted and smooth.
Use a fork to dip each egg into chocolate, shake off excess and place on prepared tray.
Place in refrigerator until chocolate sets.

This yields about 15 smaller bites or 8 larger ones.

Copycat White Castle Sliders

Pin to Pinterest

There is nothing like a GOOD Copycat Recipe. It saves you money on going out to eat but also brings the joy of a meal into the home, often at a healthier calorie and cholesterol count. We just died over these Copycat White Castle Sliders cooked over sauteed onions – absolutely yummy, easy, and sure to please the entire family.

Ingredients:

2 pkgs Dinner Rolls (16 rolls)
1 lb Ground Chuck
2 1/3 cup Beef Broth
1 cup Dried Minced Onions
8 American Cheese Slices (optional)
16 Hamburger Dills
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper

Directions:

Line a 10×15 pan with parchment paper.
Mix ground chuck, 2/3 cup beef broth and salt and pepper together until mixture is easily spreadable.
Gently press and spread meat mixture into prepared pan until you form a thin even layer.
Using a knife, score each into 16 equal rectangles.
Use your finger to make 5 holes in each patty.
Place in freezer for at least 1 hour.
Remove frozen patties on parchment paper.
Preheat oven to 450.
Pour remaining beef broth (1 2/3 cup) into a baking sheet and spread minced onions over entire bottom of pan.
Allow to sit for 5 – 10 minutes.
Cut all dinner rolls in half to make buns.
Place frozen beef on top of onion mixture.
Place in oven for 10 minutes to allow burgers to steam cook (until they turn brown).
Remove and place cheese on each patty (if you are making cheese sliders).
Top each with a bun top and return to oven for 3 minutes.
Top each bun bottom with a dill pickle.
Use a spatula to pick up each slider half and place on bun bottom.
