Preserving Favorite Foods – Chocolate, Cheetos, Nuts, & More!

Preserving Favorite Foods – Chocolate, Cheetos, Nuts, & More!

I was mortified today when my friend asked to use my bathroom. I knew it was bad, but not that bad!!! I guess that is what happens when you have 4 boys and no maid. I think I’m putting one on my Christmas list this year! Not only one was my friend exposed to the horror in […]

Enchiladas

Enchiladas

Enchiladas are always a family favorite! Tonight I tried them using the freeze-dried foods – Red Bell Pepper, Green Onions, & Monterey Jack Cheese. I’m always a little intimidated trying new freeze-dried foods, but once again they didn’t disappoint. ENCHILADAS 2 c chicken, shredded (I used my canned chicken) 1/3 package of bacon (optional) 1 clove of garlic, […]

Thrive Food and Organization Systems

Thrive Food and Organization Systems

SHELF RELIANCE & THRIVE FOODS I am loving these freeze-dried foods and rotation systems. Shelf Reliance has changed food storage forever. They have made meals I thought impossible, not only possible, but delicious. I feel like there is nothing I can’t make anymore whenever I want. Some of my favorite Thrive foods I listed below. […]

Pasta Fagioli Soup

Pasta Fagioli Soup

I originally discarded this recipe as one I would never be able to use for food storage, because it required zucchini. Freeze-dried foods have once again made something I thought was impossible, a reality. Today I made one of my favorite soups by just throwing some freeze-dried Zucchini into it, and I couldn’t tell the […]

Potato Soup

Potato Soup

I love cold days just so I can have an excuse to make some warm potato soup. My friend brought me this soup after my baby and I have been addicted since. This time I tried making it with all freeze-dried foods and it still tasted amazing! This will definitely be going into my food storage meals! POTATO […]

Get Your Basics

Get Your Basics

Don’t know what to get or where to start, well you aren’t the only one. I would recommend first starting with what you have the money, time and room for. So whether you start with 1 week for 1 person, or 1 year for 8 people, just get started!!! FEMA recommends that the average household obtain 2 […]

Bountiful Baskets

Bountiful Baskets

My dream is to eat super healthy, have my own garden, work-out everyday….. ok you get the point. The problem is I have 4 kids that can’t lift a spoon without bribing them with candy and a husband that forces me to watch Duck Dynasty every night, leaving me with only enough time to eat a big […]

System-Reliant Disappointment: Who Are You Depending On to Save You?

System-Reliant Disappointment: Who Are You Depending On to Save You?

Who are you relying on in case of an emergency? This is a great article to get you thinking: System-Reliant Disappointment FEMA and other programs are wonderful, but I feel this article summed it up best – We can support best as communities and individual families vs. relying upon systems alone.  Becoming more self and […]

Canning Beef: Put a Cow in a Jar

Canning Beef: Put a Cow in a Jar

I have tried canning beef multiple ways – raw-packed, heat-packed, with water, with-out water and almost gave-up, but I finally found a way that it actually tastes decent. Just like the chicken, I think this may be the way I do beef from now on. The convenience of being able to dump cooked beef into my […]

Cooked Jam Recipes & Instructions

Cooked Jam Recipes & Instructions

Nothing beats homemade jam, especially if you have some of Monica’s Famous Rolls to go with it! Jam makes everything better, but the only problem is once you start making it there is no going back. Your friends, your kids and the hubby will keep begging you to make more. So go ahead if you dare, […]

45-Minute Dinner Roll Recipe

45-Minute Dinner Roll Recipe

Monica made these crescent rolls to go with her homemade strawberry jam and we immediately had to have the recipe. I tried not to look like an oinker , but couldn’t help myself sneaking another one each time I walked by. Beware, you will instantly become very popular wherever you take these. PrintMonica’s Famous Crescent Roll Recipe INGREDIENTS:1/4 […]
