Tortilla Shell Quiche

While on the hunt for healthy alternatives for some of my favorite breakfast foods, I found the delicious Three-Ingredient Pancakes that I shared here recently. I have made them several times and swoon at their texture and flavor!

Then my daughter told me about making a quiche and swapping out the caloric crust for a tortilla shell! I buy the La Banderita Carb Counter tortillas and they are super low in calories, so I knew they would be a good choice for my “crust.”

Clean the Storage Spaces with Me!

You can listen to this post here on Refresh Her Podcast

A real estate broker asked a young woman if she was thinking about buying a house. 

“Why would I need a house?” she answered. “I was born in a hospital, educated in a college, courted in a car, married in a church. I eat my meals in restaurants and spend my evening in the movies. When I die, I’ll be buried from a mortuary. I don’t need a house; all I need is a garage.” 

To that I would answer – Oh, but a home is a haven from this world where we foster love for God and people. It’s where we are nourished, rested and strengthened to go back into the world. All that is made easier and more welcoming in a home that is clean and organized. 

This is episode five in our Clean with Me series. We’ve hit most all the main rooms of the house – the bathroom, bedroom, living room, and kitchen. How’s it going for you? Remember, we’re not out for perfection, but progress! Keep at it, and little by little you will get there! 

There are still two areas that need our attention. The one we’ll address today is our storage spaces. That could mean closets or attics or any other place that might be “hidden” from view, but has gotten crowded or out of control! 

Let’s discuss three things:

  1. Easy Tips to organize a closet  
  1. My favorite tools to help calm the clutter in storage areas 
  1. How to KEEP it clean! 

The starting point for your hidden spaces is to snap a picture of it exactly as it is. It’s embarrassing how bad some of my storage spaces had gotten! But I’m equally happy about the end result!

Men’s Ties Turned into Zippered Pouch

When my dad went to heaven last March, my mom began the arduous task of cleaning out his closet a couple months later. He had quite a lot of ties made by Jerry Garcia. The fabrics are gorgeous, colorful and silky. I couldn’t bear to see them go to Goodwill, so I asked if I could have them. I didn’t know what I was going to do with them, but I wanted to try to find a project that would put them to good use without being tacky!😲

I feel like I came upon the perfect idea with these little zippered pouches!

BBQ Pork Pizza

When you have leftover barbecued pork from the huge Boston Butt you cooked, you could use it to make sandwiches, but then again you could make an incredible Barbecue Pork Pizza that resembles the sandwich on a whole other level!

This recipe was partly found and partly created. It’s the perfect mix of BBQ sandwich flavors in a pizza crust, complete with pickles!
