Weekly Bulk Cooking



As you all may know recently I found out I am insuline resistance. Which meant that my eating habits had to change drastically. With that being said I had to plan my meals differently. My family on the other hand still wanted their comfort meals. So I decided to start bulk cooking on the weekend. Below are a few of weeks past mommy meals the rest is for the family. This works out much better for me.




Chicken Noodle Soup, Chicken Spaghetti, Cornbread Muffins and Chicken Enchiladas




Chicken Salad with Feta and Sautéed Mushrooms


Strawberry Chicken Salad and Chicken Cobb Salads




My favorite snack time meal.





Cabbage Soup







Meat loaf, Burritos, Lasanga and Breakfast Pizza




Tilapia with Spinach and Kale




Mock Potatoe Soup with Cucumber Salad




Egg Salad on Lettuce




Breakfast Quiche, Cinninati Chili, Sloppy Joe, Mexican Rice and Fajitas
Thanks Mulatto Mommy!

The Density of Liquids Experiment



1. First, Bennett measured the mass of the graduated cylinder.




2. Next, he measured out 50.0 mL of syrup. Next he put the graduated cylinder (with the syrup in it) back on the scale and measure the total mass.




3. Now that he had the mass of the table syrup, and knew that its volume was 50.0 mL (because that's what he measured out), he divided the mass by the volume to get the density. Finally, he poured the syrup into the tall glass. He repeated this procedure for both the water and the vegetable oil.



4. Once he measured the density of all three substances, look at the tall glass. You should
see that the table syrup is all at the bottom of the glass, the water forms a layer above
that, and the vegetable oil is all in one layer on top!
