JAMERRILL’S BAKED OATMEAL RECIPE

Today Miss Amelia and I are making a 9×13 pan of Easy Baked Oatmeal for the Frugal Family Food Collaboration on YouTube! This Baked Oatmeal Recipe can be adapted *so many ways.* You’ll see that we were out of Milk and Cinnamon so I used Almond Milk and All-Spice instead. Make it work for you!

I always like to say that a big pan of Baked Oatmeal tastes like a warm cookie. Pour a 1/2 cup or so of milk over your individual serving, and dress it up farther by adding chopped pecans or walnuts. Maybe some sliced strawberries, fresh blueberries or my favorite banana slices.

100+ FREEZER MEALS FOR BIG FAMILIES | Including June 2017 Large Family Freezer Cooking Report

by 5 Comments

Freezer Meals for Big Families

In August 2017, I published my May 2017 mega freezer cooking days with over 60+ freezer meals for large families. I pulled those freezer cooking days off at around 30-ish weeks pregnant with baby Benjamin David. In my true several months behind style, I’m sharing with you today my June 2017 super size freezer meal days where I again made about 100+ various freezer meals for my large family.

I was tired with the 3rd-trimester drag in this new 100+ Freezer Meals for Big Families vlog that I also just published. I was hopeful that I’d complete all the freezer meals over two days full days. Two days kinda turned into two full days and another three half days at slow pregnant-momma speed. I’m forever hopeful. 🙂 

These freezer meals were spread out over about 6+ weeks for our family of nine which includes five adult eaters. We used these meals when I couldn’t move before the baby and also for several weeks after his birth. It was glorious to have the freezer full and ready to go! Just like my freezer cooking from the month before I made these meals in 9×13 disposable baking pans for the ease of my family. 

40 Dinner Freezer Meals for Big Families

Here are the freezer meals I completed during my June 2017 freezer cooking days right before the baby was born:

5 Pans of Chicken Stir Fry for the Freezer

6 Pans of Kilbosa Broccoli Bow Tie Bake Freezer Meal

4 Pans of Stuffed Shells Freezer Meal

5 Pans of Freezer Friendly Taco Bake

5 Ham and Cheese Potato Bakes for the Freezer

4 Chicken Tater Tot Casserole Bakes

7 Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Freezer Meals 

4 Easy Baked Beef Stroganoff for the Freezer

44 Breakfast Freezer Meals Large Family Style

In our house, we add yogurt, fruit, and milk to these breakfast meals as needed. 

7 Loaves of Freezer French Toast (10 breakfast meals for our growing family)

4 Easy Breakfast Egg Bakes (4 breakfast dishes)

80 Breakfast Burritos (10 Meals for our family of 10)

20 Loaves of Freezer Fruit Bread (both Banana Bread and Blueberry Bread – 20 breakfasts in our world)

22 Large Family Lunches 

140 Freezer Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches

140 Prepped Grilled Cheese Sandwiches 

100+ Freezer Meals for Big Families

Salmon Cakes Recipe and Oven Roasted Red Potatoes | Large Family Style!

Salmon Cakes Recipe and Oven Roasted Red Potatoes | Large Family Style!

Salmon Cakes Recipe and Oven Roasted Red Potatoes | Large Family Style!

A little bit ago I shared my large family recipe for homemade tuna cakes.  Today I’m sharing my recipe variation for Homemade Salmon Cakes, plus I’m also sharing my quick and easy way to make Oven Roasted Red Potatoes!

What About the Salmon Bones

Before we jump into the Salmon Cakes recipe, you’ll need to decide how you feel about the bones. In the cans of Salmon, I tend to buy (the cheapest I can find, usually) there is still skin on the Salmon and the vertebrae bones. I leave the skin for extra nutrients. However, I remove the bones. When I filmed my Salmon Cakes Recipe video, it got me thinking about what other families do.

(For extra confusion this question is from when I was also trying to have a food channel. Then in 2017 I smushed it all back together. Clear as mud? Everything is now LargeFamilyTable.com. Yes, and amen! 🙂 

I asked on Large Family Table Facebook page and received a variety of answers including,

Amanda said, “I leave skin but pull out bones.”

Sarah shared, “My boys want to eat the bones right out of the can, so they never make it into the Salmon Cakes!”

Angela chimed in, “I take out all the bones & skin. It only takes a minute or two to remove it all. Like way quicker than peeling potatoes or other food prep tasks. Love salmon cakes (that’s what we call them).”

Yitti said, “My mother actually left the bones in they were soft&a good source of calcium.”

And (super funny) Lisa responded with, “If I ever think about using canned salmon, I’m going to remember this post and think..” “.eh, too much work.” Lol!”

You can read all the different answers to the question of do you leave the salmon bones in or take them out here.

deboning-salmon

This is the Canned Salmon that I use with my Amazon link. If you don’t want to think about Salmon skin and bones here’s my Amazon link with a full list of boneless/skinless Salmon options.

Now that we have all this bone talk out of the way let’s jump into the Salmon Cakes recipe!

homemade-salmon-cakes-ingredients

Large Family Salmon Cakes Recipe

  • 74 oz Canned Salmon (this is about 3 cans)
  • 3 cups Old Fashioned Oatmeal
  • 1 Dozen Eggs
  • 2 cups chopped peppers and other choice veggies
  • 1 tsp Rosemary
  1. Add 74 oz of drained Salmon in a large mixing bowl 
  2. Add in 3 cups of Old Fashioned Oatmeal and 1 dozen eggs
  3. Add 2 cups of chopped colored peppers (or any other veggies you’d like to throw in!). 
  4. Sprinkle in 1 tsp of Rosemary and salt/pepper to taste.
  5. Mix all ingredients well. 
  6. Form patties of the Salmon cake mixture. Cook Salmon cakes on medium heat, flipping as needed.

And now that we have those Large Family Style Salmon Cakes out of the way, let’s move on to those perfect Oven Roasted Red Potatoes! There is no rocket science required for this recipe. If your family loves potatoes, they’ll give you a big bear hug for this recipe.

Oven Roasted Red Potatoes

  • 2 1/2 lbs Red Potatoes
  • 1 cup Canola Oil
  • 1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  1. Preheat oven to 450.
  2. Wash and cube the 2 1/2  lbs of Red Potatoes
  3. Pour 1 cup Canola Oil in bowl. 
  4. Toss cubed Red Potatoes in oil. Place on sprayed baking sheet.
  5. Sprinkle with Italian Seasoning, Salt/Pepper. 
  6. Bake at 450 for 25-30 minutes.

As you can see in the picture above, the Red Potatoes cook up wonderfully! We also had a side of frozen peas from Aldi. There were enough leftovers for our family of nine also to have this meal for lunch the following day. After that there was nothing left, it was that good!
