Culinary mixes can make a cook’s life so much easier!  Using a mix to make a recipe is as simple as adding a few ingredients to the mix and then stirring, cooking or chilling and serving!  After meeting the ladies from Mad Dash Mixes* at a blogging conference this summer, I decided to add a weekly blog post featuring recipes using their mixes.

What are We Mixin’ Up This Week?

Notes

The dip can be used as a spread on bread when making a sandwich
The dip could be served in a bread bowl. To do this, simply cut the top off a loaf of italian bread to form a bowl.  Place the dip in the bread bowl.  The portion of the loaf that was cut off can be cut into smaller pieces and used as a dipper for the dip.

Not only is the Zesty Crab Dip mix an easy to make dip,  by adding it to a mixture of mayonnaise and additional chopped imitation Crab you can make a delicious Zesty Crab Salad!  I served it on a hoagie bun and called it Kim’s Zesty Crab Roll!

COOKING WITH KIM

My entrepreneurial journey started with my love of herbs  , both growing and cooking with them.  My love of herbs eventually lead to owning a pizzeria. After relocating to Florida, I decided to start a blog.  Now I am now having a lot of fun working with the ladies from Mad Dash Mixes.  They did send me some products to sample but my opinions about the products are my own.  My full disclosure policy can be found on the Disclosure page.

*If you would like to try some of their products, I have arranged for you to receive a 15% discount if you use the code farmhouse.  Orders can be placed at http://www.MadDashMixes.com

I don’t talk about my faith a lot. I do believe I don’t talk about my faith a lot.  I do believe God puts certain people in your path for a reason.  An example of this occurred on Tuesday.  It was colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy day.  I was really nervous about how it would all work since it was my first time since I had my cancer surgery. 

 The nurse that was taking care of me in the pre op area turned out to be the same nurse who had prayed for me last year. My husband was in the parking lot of the medical center speaking with his friend who happened to work at the center with this particular nurse. I was very sick at the time and they prayed for my healing.  It was great to be able to thank her in person and let her see that the prayers had been answered. ❤️

Then the anesthesiologist came in and told me about his cousin who had also been diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer about a year ago. He mentioned some of the treatments his cousin had had and how important a positive attitude is.  I was touched that he took the time to tell me about his cousin’s experience. 

 We had arranged in advance to have my husband’s friend as the nurse anesthesist.  He was able to pray with us as well as reassure us about the procedure.

The procedure went well. The three polyps that the surgeon removed were sent to pathology.  The report is already back and there no evidence of cancer.  Prayers were answered again❤️
