I am delighted to serve as an ambassador for the Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board by highlighting stories surrounding Arkansas’s largest row crop – soybeans! #ARSoyStory #themiraclebean #ARSoySupper

Gooooood afternoon, friend. I hope your day is wonderful so far and that you are fully embracing every single moment. For me that means getting things checked off my to-do list – as well as slowing down in between. One way to do this super-human feat is by not spending a lot of time in the kitchen when in go-mode. That means pre-made foods or quick and easy nibbles for the win! A perfect example of this cooking mindset is quick and easy BLT egg bites.

The ingredients are preeeeety simple: B is for bacon and T is for tomatoes. And before you assume that L is for lettuce… wait for it. L is for LOTS OF CHEESE!  For all those BLT die-hards out there, feel free to place a BLT egg bite or two on a bed of lettuce. That counts, right?

There is no soy in this delicious, quick and easy recipe, so why is this sponsored by the Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board? It’s simple, really…

Bacon = made from animals who often are fed a protein-rich soybean diet.

Eggs = made from hens who often are fed a protein-rich soybean diet.

And there we have it. Preparing these delicious, quick and easy BLT egg bites are indirectly supporting Arkansas’s soybean farmers – who are supporting other American farmers who are feeding their livestock soybean rich meals!  So cheers to the miracle soybean. And cheers to us for not spending a lot of time in the kitchen when in go-mode.

My name is Lyndi Fultz, and I live in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, which span Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri.

I like to share small ideas for living simply and eating happily.

You will find that I talk a lot about food because we all need to eat. Why not add little bits of food joy where possible?

There is something quite glorious about simplicity There is something quite glorious about simplicity. I'm really feeling it as Dennis and I sit here in our living room, next to the crackling fire. Full disclosure, this picture isn't me BUT I do have the exact same coffee cup. Anyoo, I'm reminded how wonderful it is to be still. Not that I ever forget that reminder, it's just easier to revel in it, next to a fire. With snow softing falling outside. You know what I mean?

First, it was a percolator.
Then came the Breville coffee maker.
Next, along came a bodum pour over.
Quickly replaced by a French Press.
Then came an Aeropress.

Now, Aeropress is making a comeback. 
And our beloved LaVazza espresso.
Which tastes like vacation at the Sonnelap in Vail.

Am I the only one who does coffee in phases?

What's next?

Probably need an espresso maker!

Microwave turntable = quick, fast, speed

Record player turntable = slow, easy, chill

Both have their places. But man, oh man, I am finding myself craving more of the latter: slow, easy, chill. 

Now, to get a record player...

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
