Homemade Bratwurst

This was one of my sausage projects. I used a bratwurst seasoning package from LEM products.

What I made this weekend....

So to start, it was time for a fresh fruit salad.  It is so simple and tastes great, especially when topped with whipped cream. 

Just get a selection of your favorite fruits.  This one contained blueberries, strawberries, pineapples, mandarin oranges.   Once all the fruit is combined, use a packet of Kool-Aid Tropical Punch to cover the fruit.  Mix and adjust for taste.

Peppers to Powder

Not being able to purchase jalapeno powder in the local area, I decided to make my own.  I dehydrated some jalapeno peppers and cloves of garlic.  Once dehydrated, I ground them to a fine  powder.   Also, I bought some already dried arbol chili and made my own powder.   The freshly ground peppers add a nice heat to my bbq rubs.
