I don’t know about you, but I don’t exactly enjoy spending 2 hours of my day on a meal that will be devoured in less than 5 minutes.

I tend to lean more towards fast meals. Because after a long day (and when I say long, I mean looooong), I just don’t have it in me to make some crazy extravagant fancy meal. This veggie fried rice is like fast food in the world of real food. You know, the world where we don’t eat foods laden with sugar, dyed bright orange, or clog our arteries with shortening.

Einkorn English Muffins

We have been on the real food diet for a while now, and the fact that homemade food tastes so much better than the stuff from the store has become perfectly clear. Bagels, pizza, muffins, granola bars…

And somehow, in the year and half that I’ve been eating a real food diet, I haven’t even touched an English muffin. Haven’t even thought about ‘em. Nor have I tried making them at home.

Well, about a month ago, I received some organic einkorn flour in the mail from the oh-so-amazing people over at Jovial Foods, and knew I could create some awesome recipes with it. So the brainstorming process started and I began to list all kinds of things I could make with the flour, including einkorn English muffins.

So it was my night to cook dinner last night.

And this happened.

When my mom showed me a recipe and told me to start making it, I honestly had no idea what it was (there was no picture), or what it was suppose to look/taste like.

I was also really worried I would mess it up. Because apparently my grandmother used to make this for my mom. Let’s just say I was worried outta my mind the whole time that I was going to totally botch this recipe.
