Farm Kitchen Menu - February 9th

This is my first "Farm Kitchen Menu" for our blog.  I thought it might be helpful for others to know how our family eats.  It may also help to dispel the myth that we are self-sufficient. :)  Unfortunately, as dreamy as that sounds, it is not as easy to attain as one might think.  The foods that we have grown or raised ourselves are marked with a "HF" for Housman Farms.
Breakfast
Omelets (cooked with lard)
HF eggs
HF goats milk
HF green peppers
HF onions
HF kale
HF garlic
shredded raw cheese

Sourdough Muffins (see recipe below)

Fresh squeezed (by Benjamin) Orange Juice

Breakfast was followed by a cup of Organic coffee, with raw honey and raw cream.  We were stuffed! :)

Sourdough Muffins
Night before combine:

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats

Cover the bowl with a towel and leave it on the counter overnight.
