Day 22:

My kiddos want to take yogurt in their lunches again, but, knowing that I can make it from food storage stuff (and one little store-bought yogurt cup), I couldn't justify buying a ton of little individual yogurts at the store; not this month, anyway.  So, I'm giving yogurt another shot in the InstantPot, but this time I changed it up a bit.  I read somewhere that you could add a can of sweetened condensed milk, which I happened to have in my food storage, to help with the taste.  Now, I will use just about any excuse to open a can of sweetened condensed milk, just for the opportunity to lick the lid and snitch any leftovers.  SO yummy.  Anyway, another person mentioned that they knew a person who added jell-o to their homemade yogurt to flavor it (which I also have in food storage...Yay!).  So, my hypothesis with adding both of those things, is that it will have a thicker consistency, and not require a lot of jelly for flavoring.  I still used half normal milk and half dry milk, so this really is going to end up being really cheap.  I'll let you know how it goes when it has had a night to firm up in the fridge.  Other than that, we ate chicken, rice, some granola from our pantry, and leftover chicken and dumplings.  It was Veteran's Day, so we all took it easy, enjoyed a fantastic new obstacle course park, and all of the kids took fantastic, long naps!  So much winning today!
