It's a new Skool group where we can share thrifty recipes and learn ways to stretch a dollar until it squeals like a piggy in a greased pig contest! If you're ready to join in, say hello and introduce yourself. We want this to be a place with lots of interaction. I invite you to look at my recipes and tips at https://harvestlanecottage.com too! Be blessed, Laura Lowell's wife

This is my favorite. Good for sweet or savory. Recipe: This recipe makes 1- 9 inch crust NOTE: in the video I was making a bigger batch, so ignor the amounts on the video. This is a really old video. I will update it soon. Ingredients: All purpose flour 1Cup + 2 Tablespoon Salt ½ teaspoon Canola oil 1/3 Cup Ice water 2 Tablspoon Rember in most recipes: C = cup, T = Tablespoon, t= teaspoon Mix flour and salt Optional- add ¼ cup sugar for sweeter crust or spices for savory crust. Add oil and water Mix with rubber spatula till flour is no longer dry. Should look wet. Using 2 pieces of wax paper roll out crust between and roll to 1/8 inch thick. Pull top wax paper off gently and then flip bottom crust into pie pan. Gently remove edges and pull wax paper off. Trim edges leaving ½ to make your fluted edges. NOTE; THIS PIE CRUST IS TO BE USED IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT REFRIGERATE. To precook crust bake at 425 degrees for 5-15 minutes until crust is golden. Place on wire wrack to cool. For filling pies bake to your pies directions. Different stoves and different climates can make a difference in how much water you will need to use and in how long it will take to bake. I hope you enjoy! Please share if you make this or if you have a favorite pie crust recipe.

During the 2011 Joplin, Mo tornado recovery, I spent 3 years running a disaster relief center. We had a food pantry and gave out food to thousands of families. I was shocked to learn that if food was not prepackaged or microwavable, they did not want it. I started asking why? The overwhelming answer was, "I don't know how to cook it". So I started comng up with recipes that start with a Basic Pantry, and then adding to it as you can. In this group I want to share thrifty recipes with video instructions, cooking techniques and lessons , and have community discussions. If you are on a budget, need ideas, want to know how to prepare different foods, or just want ideas for quick, easy, and cheap meals, please join us. Introduce yourself to the group and share your favorite recipes or cooking questions.
