Things get tight sometimes - a lot here lately- BUT, we still want to eat different things. I pick these frozen ravioli up at the Dollar Store and we love them. This easy recipe is also frugal.
2 jars of marinara sauce
2-3 packages of frozen ravioli , thawed
1 jar of roasted red peppers , drained and chopped
1 package of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Spray a 13X9 baking dish with cooking spray.
Spread about half of one of the jars of marinara sauce in the pan.
Arrange a layer of about half of the raviolis onto the sauce and top with about half of the peppers. Then spread the rest of the sauce over that.
Sprinkle with about half of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Repeat the layer.
Cover with foil and bake for about 35 minutes. Uncover and bake another 10 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly.
Sprinkle with the rest of the Parmesan cheese.
Serve with garlic bread.

How much food do I really need for 1 year
Having a full pantry is a must for many reasons. How much you really need is what you need to figure out. Every family will need a different amount. Your family size and needs are a factor to think about.
I live in a little house that has a back room that is not too sealed. It actually has the back door in that room. Always cold. MY desk had to go by the door to that room because I had no room to put it any where else.
Sitting there the last 2 days I actually felt like my toes had frost bite. So I went to dollar general and got a 3.00 curtain rod, I got one that sticks out from the wall a bit so I can move the curtain easily whenever I need to open the door. I had 1 curtain panel that is a heavy one to put up there. Sitting here at my desk I already notice a huge difference.
You could even hang a thick blanket if you have one. Anything to cut down on drafts getting into your house and save on your power (heat) bill. I might keep it up all year and see if it helps with the power bill in the summer also.
As soon as I can I will be working on sealing that back room up and getting a new back door.

This is a good one. I use our left over cooked navy beans.
Mash up about 2 cups of cooked dried navy beans
Add them to-
about 1/2 a cup of chopped onion
some parsley
Beat that up and then add -
2 egg yolks
2 Teaspoon milk
salt and pepper
Shape the mixture into balls and flatten them into patties.
Dip them into flour.
Fry them slowly until browned. I use leftover bacon fat to fry them in.
We have eaten them as sandwiches on buns or just to go as a side dish .The great thing about this recipe is that you can change it up as you like. Even use other type of beans. Black beans are a great one to use. On the "burger" you can add all of your favorite toppings.
