Tortillas - Possibilities are endless with these. You can use any leftovers of any kind of meat in them. Or even just roll up lunch meat  and cheese. They freeze pretty well , too. 

Ready Made pizza crust - These can come in handy for many ways. You can make pizza, of course, but you can also make other things. Breakfast pizza using leftover sausage. Make a sweet "pie" with pie filling and some dribbles of icing. 

Broth - Any soup can be made with a starter of broth. Use up leftover chicken, rice, vegetables, ground beef, etc - possibilities are endless.  STOCK UP !

Canned Tomatoes - They can be use in recipes of all kinds. They even have canned ones that have the seasoning all ready in them. Use in chili, tacos, salads, and so on and on. I even use them to make salsa. Keep as many cans on hand as you can.  Watch for sales and have at it.

Lemon Cough & Cold Tea

This is so good for when you have a sore throat! Helps with colds also. The lemon is high in vitamin C.  Honey has antiviral properties. I try to drink this as soon as I start feeling that I am getting a cold.

 

 1 lemon 

 

2 teaspoons of honey 

 

Put the juice of that lemon into a cup and pour boiling water into that.

 

 Add the honey .

 

 Drink as soon as it gets cool enough.

Food Storage Recipe - Creamy Meatballs, Broccoli , and Fries

 

I was given some meatballs and none of us really like them so I had to find something to do with them! This is easy to make and taste great.

Whisk together 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and 1/3 cup of water. I have use other cream of soups also. 

 

Add a 1/2 bag of frozen steak fries. Partially thawed. Stir the fries up to coat them with the cream of soup mixture.

 

Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat. Simmer uncovered for a few minutes.

 

Stir in a bag of frozen broccoli and a small bag of frozen meatballs. Thawed a bit.

 

Return to a simmer and cover.

 

Simmer gently until the broccoli is tender.

 

Stir in 1/4 cup of sour cream and cook for a bit longer. 

 

Season with salt and pepper.
