Wild Plants You Can Eat

 

Bulk Buying Over The Weekend

Stocking up on some canned food. I really don't like eating a lot of this type of item, lots of sodium, but, I did get some Dinty Moore Beef Stew, Hearty Meals, 15-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12), canned sliced carrots, chili, beef tamales, and some other soups. These are great to have on hand for quick eats. Make them real good by putting over rice or noodles. Plus, gives you some variety. Always adding to the stockpile of food. Never feel like we have enough.

Off Grid Communication

Food Storage Recipe - Coffee Mug Cake

 

Make several individual desserts, right in your mugs. Cool!!
This is easy as 1-2-3.

1. You will need two cake mixes. One must be Angel Food, the other your choice.

2. MIX THE TWO TOGETHER, now forming one cake mix, in an airtight container and seal it.

3. When you want a treat, get a coffee mug, add 3 Tablespoons of the Cake Mix, and 2 Tablespoons of Water. Microwave 1 minute. (Please note, depending on your microwave, this could vary a little.)

Yummy! This mixture here is apparently just 180 calories - not bad when you need something sweet without overdoing it!!!
