Day of food #3 and the secret to the best whole wheat bread ever

Day #3 of food!

Breakfast:
Coffee with raw milk
Leftover cinnamon buns, made from a GF Bob's Red Mill Mix that time I was going gluten-free.  Not bad at all, even when I cut the butter and sugar in half!

Lunch:
Organic potatoes broiled in duck fat.
Organic spinach salad
Homemade chocolate pudding, from 85% chocolate and raw milk, free range egg

Dinner:
Turkey stew with broth made from Thanksgiving turkey skin and bones, organic potatoes and carrots, dehydrated onions and tomatoes from the garden, organic black beans, curry
Whole wheat bread, hot out of the oven
More chocolate pudding!

And the secret to the best whole wheat bread ever is...oat flour!  I got it for cheap from the bulk bins at the co-op.  Substituting 1 cup of oat flour for 1 cup of all-purpose flour in recipes that use both ap and whole wheat flours makes the bread a little lighter in texture, rise higher, and it gives a bit more fiber.  I'm not sure if it would work for every recipe, but I encourage you to try it out sometime and see how it works for you!

By the way, if you are interested in buying a fleece from my awesome friend Julie, she is selling them here.
