Leftover Salt Potato Cheesy Goodness

I get bored of eating the same thing, not every day but even once a month. I love taking leftovers and turning them into a first time recipe. For instance, salt potatoes. All though they are so good, sometimes you just need to change things up a bit. So I took leftover salt potatoes, cut them up into small pieces and put each one in a muffin tin. I drizzled olive oil on top, sprinkled cheddar cheese, and Italian seasoning.

Ingredients

  • 1 – 12 Cooked salt potatoes, 1 for each muffin tin slot(however many you want to make)
  • 1 tbsp of cheddar cheese
  • a drizzle of olive oil(I prefer Specially Selected Sicilian Extra Virgin Olive Oil) a GREAT product for the price)
  • 2 shakes of Italian seasoning

If you’re thinking about giving up, this is your sign to keep going. No matter who or what gets in your way don’t stand down. If your own thoughts are deterring you from what you need to get done, change your train of thought.

There’s no one on this earth that can stop you from doing what’s best for you. Occasionally, outside factors may creep in and try to alter your thoughts and beliefs. That’s when you have to listen to the vibes that your heart and gut instincts are sending you. They’re connected. Listen to them.

Life is only as complicated as we make it. Keep it simple. ~ jg

There is Peace in Silence

People say, ” you can never be in complete silence because of the noises that are going on around you.” There is some truth to that but you can silence your mind and tune those noises out. The noises go way beyond the audio you hear. They are a derivative of its source. Life that goes on around us is the creator of the noises we hear. Noises affect our mental psyche. It alters our thinking, behaviors, and overall our stability in life. The stillness you get from silence creates the peace inside you.

Worrying is one source of what makes up the chatter and noises that consume your thoughts. It can be debilitating at times. If you can learn to worry less about the things you have no control of, it’s only then that you’ll see that the noises in your mind start to fade. Quieting your mind isn’t easy. Anxious feelings will consume you at first but if you can surrender those feelings of anxiousness and worry, the silence will become peaceful.

That is when the healing begins.

What is your favorite type of weather?

I live in upstate NY and you all probably know what that’s like. On average, we get about 8 months of cold/rainy/snowy weather and 4 months of rockstar weather. I love the change of seasons. Like everything else in life, even the sunshine could get exhausting also. I need to see those leaves changing to the fiery reds, burnt oranges, golden yellows, and deep purples. There’s also a different smell in the air. The smell of camp fires magically appear out of nowhere. Even the sounds are different. When the wind blows, you can hear the rustle of the leaves blowing across the ground. At the end of summer, my mom always said, “the trees, grass, and bugs are tired, and they need to rest too.” At first, I didn’t understand what she truly meant but I see it now. The once bright fresh greens that the leaves used to be now appear subdued and look like a deep olive color.

Change is good. I welcome change and I don’t mind whatever mother nature brings my way. I really love all types of weather in upstate NY.
