Food Storage Recipe - Almost Instant Split Pea Soup
I love Split Peas soup, but hate how long it takes to cook it and wanted an easy way to make it. After making the Instant Refried Bean the other day I got to thinking about doing this to other items in my stockpile. I went onto Google and found this http://frugalabundance.com/gfcf/instant-split-pea-soup.htm and instantly had to do it. It was super easy. I took my bags of split peas and using my Magic Bullet I ground them up pretty quick. Now whenever I want some Split Peas soup it will be a quicker way to make them. Would be great for a survival situation also. Will not use as much cooking fuel to fix them I would think. Since it won't take as long to cook them. I have all of my Ham TVP bits that will work in this and dehydrated carrots and celery. All set to be able to make some awesome soup that has to a lot cheaper than buying the canned Split Peas soups. I am all about being frugal.

Instant Refried Beans - DIY
We use a lot of refried beans in our house. Always having to buy tons of cans and restocking the stockpile is getting old. The other day I was looking for an easy fix online and I think that I found one at http://www.budget101.com/side-dish-mixes/instant-refried-beans-mix-1479.html!
Really easy. I think it took me about 10 minutes to do a whole bag of Pinto Beans and get them all jarred up! Grind them up into a powder in my Magic Bullet - you can use coffee grinder or blender also. The only thing that I did different was instead of using the seasonings listed in the recipe - I had to use taco seasoning. Which seemed to work fine. I have some more pinto beans that I am going to do this with later. Today is a busy day so have to wait til have more time. Also I am planning on doing a Almost instant split pea soup mix also. Being able to cook good food quickly is a huge plus.
