Easy Cinnamon Roll Recipes for Every Occasion

Did you know that October 4th is Cinnamon Roll Day? Well, they are pretty good, so I can see why they have their own day, but we don’t need a special day to eat them around here. We do have them requested pretty often for special days though as my older kids don’t get to have them as often as the ones who still live at home.

Here are our favorite Cinnamon Roll Recipes:

Yummy Lentil and Chaya Soup

This is a recipe that we make at least two times a week or more. I have recently started using Chaya in place of the spinach and it is so GOOD! You just need to do your research before using Chaya to make sure it is a good fit for you. This soup is still AMAZING with or without spinach or kale as well, so don’t worry if you can’t get your hands on any.

This soup is so good for you and it is so easy to make … you can add just about anything you like and it will only make it better! You can also leave it as simple as you like and still have a healthy, filling meal. I can make a pot of this in the beginning of the week and have it for lunch all week… as long as the kiddos don’t get to it before I do!

Here is a look at one of our Chaya plants…. or ‘yard leaf’ as Mr. Awesome calls them…

I think I will definitely be adding even more next year! I’m also planning to pick some more and cook them up before putting them in the freezer so we can enjoy them all winter long!

Grannie’s Tuna Salad

Mr. Awesome, his dad, and his brother went fishing a bit ago and his brother had brought some tuna salad for lunch. I guess it was pretty good because I keep hearing about it and about how amazing it is to eat with Frito scoops! I haven’t tried it yet but plan to do so soon!

I never got the chance to meet Grannie but I’ve tried some of her recipes and they have been AMAZING so I’m sure this one will be too!

Easy Homemade Pepper Gravy Mix

Who doesn’t love some Biscuits and Gravy on a cold morning? We definitely do but sometimes the kids want to help make the gravy and they end up adding way too much salt or pepper so I decided to make up some dry mix that they could use. It really does simplify the process and it’s nice to have on hand if I ever want to make a pan of country gravy really quick.

I also like to write the recipe on a small index card or piece of paper and tape it to the jar so I don’t have to pull out a recipe every time I need to refill my container.
