How Many of You make your own cooking and baking mixes?

I will be looking forward to you posting some of your recipes. I like to make a big batch of cookie dough and keep it in the fridge. Then I will make some cookies, fresh baked are always so good. We devour them quick. My grandson is a cookie monster, haha.

I love gifts in a jar,I usually make up baskets for those people you don't know what to get them. These fit in so well,and I usually cross stitch lid covers to dress them up a little.

I would love some homemade recipes! My husbands always complaining that I don't make anything homemade. I would love to suprise him with a home cooked meal, instead of box meals. hehehe I'm lazy, what can I say.

Wow, that is so cool. Would you mind sharing some mixes that you layer in a jar for a gift. Sounds wonderful. Thank you so much. I make from scratch, that's about it.

I have gotten a few of your recipes now. I would love to have your biscuits recipe and any others you would care to share, I did get the chicken gravey, white sauce, and bannana chocolate chip bread recipes but if you have others I would love to have them. Thanks you are the greatest.

I don't store my mixes, but that is a really good idea, when I have more time, I will have to start doing that. I already do that with Pankcake mix though.

I am making up a few batches of bisquit mix and plan on giving it as a gift to my kids. They can also use it for pancakes. With both of us not working, times are tough and we need to cut corners. I look forward to your posts. Thank you.

I love this idea. I would love to see some recipes out of these books. Thank you for posting these.

Hi Villageann, I sure am . Especially for home made biscuits. I image they are like teabiscuts. I love your recipes.thank you so much. I tryed your microwave one and it was great.

I always love your wonderful recipes, and i would love to learn all about making up mixes...theres a lot of times that i want to make something, but the thought of having to pull everything out just makes me want to forget it...

I would really enjoy it if you posted more recipes. One of my goals for the new year is to get away from using so many prepackaged foods. My grandma was such a wonderful cook and now I really wish I had paid more attention and learned more from her.

I just can't wait untill you post more recipes, I would like to know more about gifts in a jar. I work at a college,a dorm there are kids all over this would be a nice gift for them.

Wow, it sounds like you are frugal and quite the cook. I would love to make more of my own mixes and I love all of your posts. I am actually a distributor of homemade food mixes. The company is great and all of their mixes are great! Do you sell any of yours?

I own two cookbooks;Make A Mix Cookery and More Make A Mix Cookery by Karine Eliason, Nevada Harward and Madeline Westover. I used them more when my children were younger but want to start using them again . Recently my daughter pulled out one of the cookbooks and made up a biscuit mix.It sure was nice to have the mix on hand .So I am planning to look for more recipes to use . I also have a recipe called a Master Mix.I could not begin to tell you the author . It was a recipe passed along to Tupperware Consultants.We used it to promote their largest canister at the time ( circa 1982) My reason for using my own mix would be two fold . I could control some of the ingredients that go in to the mix . i.e. margarine without trans fats . Ssecondly I like to save money when I can .Food costs are always soaring but our income does not . I try for the most part to avoid mixes and processed foods. I do use omse of them but try to not to over do it because they are not always that healthy and they can really up the cost of your groceries .

I used to make my own cooking and baking mixes all the time, but got lazy. I'm going to get back into it, though, because it's cheaper. Please do share your recipes, as I've lost most of mine!

Interested? You bet I am! I'm all for making mixes to have on hand and wish that I had the recipes to make my own mixes. Thanks in advance.

I have always baked from scratch and have not used mixes in some 35 years, so it has never occurred to me to make mixes. I do not see any reason to do so.

dear for this my mom do well

I love to make my own mixes. I have bottles, jars and freezer bags all over my house full of things. I am determined to get out of debt this year- except for my house of course. I have never found a book that told me how to do them. I experiment and then write it down when I get it right. I will have to go scour local book stores and see what I can find. This might make my life so much easier.
