The Kneady Homesteader

Welcome to The Kneady Homesteader!
I'm Heather ~ A Mom of 6, a widow who has joyfully remarried, a homesteader, bread baker, canner, gardener, chicken mom and a follower of Jesus. Here you will find laid back tutorials on how to make homemade bread, preserve food through canning and dehydrating, prep your pantry for life's emergencies, and live a faith-filled resilient life with joy and glory of the Lord as the center.

I also share heartfelt reflections on grief and healing after loss, and invite you to walk with me in both the joyful and the hard seasons of life.
Let's bake, can, grow, and walk in grace....together.

Topics I Cover:
Homemade Bread | Small batch canning | Pantry Prep | Homesteading | Food Preservation | Faith and Grief

Our French Bread Pizza made from the bread we made together in the new Ank!πŸ˜†πŸ‘ Leftover Makeover Meal!!!! Bacon and Ham was from leftover BLT and ham lunch meat. Peppers came from the overflow of what I chopped for pepper jam. Salad was leftover lettuce from Tacos we had on Sunday. The Garlic Butter Noodles came from leftover spaghetti from Monday nights dinner. πŸ˜†πŸ‘ Now every leftover scrap has been used in the fridge and nothing will go to waste. πŸ˜†πŸ‘πŸΌ No fail mom-method, throw it on a french bread pizza. They will eat it. 🀣
