On My Wish List!

I have a free Kindle app on my desktop, but have a short wishlist! (Hey, hubby, Christmas is coming up soon!) I want one of these - Kindle Keyboard 3G, Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Display - includes Special Offers & Sponsored Screensavers and ReVIVE Series Solar ReStore 2X Dual-Infusion External Backup Battery Pack and Solar Panel for Portable Smartphones / E-readers / MP3 Players and More USB Powered Devices so that in an off grid situation I will have all of my info and be able to keep it charged up!! That would work awesome. With all of the e-books that I already have on the desktop that have to do with survival (non-fiction and fiction) I really think that this would be the best thing for me. Other wise I am going to have to find some way to print all of this stuff off somehow. And that does not seem like anything that could happen soon. LOL

What I Have Learned While Town On Boil Water Advisory!

This has been a great learning experience. Having a boil water advisory all week. That is so funny to say that, but it is true. I am kind of glad that this happened. Now I can learn from it and see what I need to do, what I need to get, and what can be done to make it better!!

OK first off - I need to stock up on more disposable products , like paper plates, disposable utensils, etc. This is the one thing that I have been having trouble with - Having to figure out how to wash the dishes. LOL The boiling of water is no fun and then it is too hot and I burned my hand the first time I did so dishes the other day. Does not feel good at all. Which is another thing that I learned - I need one of those HUGE stockpots for boiling water in for dishes. Right now I am having to use 2 of my soup pots , which are big, but not big enough for something like this.

Luckily we never drank our city water anyway. So I have plenty of bottled water for drinking and cooking with. I had some bottled water to that had been put into soda bottles etc from the tap that I just have on hand for emergencies. I have 3 of them sitting out in the sun to get hot for washing hands etc. Everything seems to be working out alright. Just the having to wash dishes is what is bothering me. But other than that we are fine I really think that it would be tons worse if the water was not on at all. Then we would have to worry about sanitation stuff. Like being able to flush the toilet is great, but if we had no water at all it would be a lot worse. Would have to figure out something for that. Free Solar Book

Food Storage Recipe Idea (tip)

This is just a short tip - Use the taco flavored TVP in your Hamburger Helper, especially the cheeseburger one. I just made it for us lunch and it was really good. Cut up some of our tomatoes to eat with it. Really a great idea. There are so many frugal ways that you can make a great meal that will make your family full and that they will enjoy. Eating food storage doesn't have to be boring or have no taste. You can have other things , not just beans! Just use your imagination and find things that can be added to your food storage that will be exciting and new.

Food Storage Recipe - Spicy "Cheeseburger" Nachos

This is another great recipe that I found in a magazine and turned it into some thing that uses what I have in my food storage. I sub the ground beef with my ground beef flavored TVP. You have to put equal amounts of the TVP and boiling water to make it up. Then I kind of keep it in the pan for a couple of minutes longer to kind of give it a "fried" texture. Cut a box or 2 of prepared cheese product that is Mexican style into cubes and add to the meat. (Velveeta Mexican, Mild) Melt it all together. Depends on how much you are wanting to make. I can use 1 box and it be enough for the 4 of us to munch on while watching movies. If you like it really spicy - you can also add a can or 2 of diced tomatoes with green chilis to this while it is melting. Right before you serve it add some diced green onion. Serve this with tortilla chips. USE GROUND BEEF IF YOU WANT TO.

Food Storage Recipe - Chicken Carbonara

Just got done eating a plate of this. It was so yummy. I seriously do not know what is the matter with my camera now, though. Now the darn flash goes off anytime I take a photo, even when there is plenty of sunshine coming in the open back door! So my photos lately are looking simply horrible. But, please , take my word for it - THIS WAS YUMMY!

Chicken Carbonara

8 ozs of uncooked spaghetti - I used Angel Hair - it cooks a lot quicker.

1 cup of frozen baby sweet peas

3 slices of bacon

2 cups of the Keystone All Natural Canned Chicken

1 jar of Alfredo sauce

In a saucepan cook the spaghetti as directed. Add the frozen peas at about the last 2-3 minutes of cook time with the spaghetti. Drain it all and put it back into the saucepan. While that was cooking you should have fried up the bacon to really crispy, but not burned. Crumble it up when it is done. Stir the sauce, bacon, and chicken into the pasta and pea mixture. Cook over a low heat until it is heated through! About 5 minutes. Serve it with parmasean cheese grated over it. Serve this with a salad and some garlic bread. Great little meal that is very filling and yummy.

Food Storage Recipe - Beef & Broccoli

My hubby said that this is not really a food storage recipe. But , it is a frugal one. The pictures are horrible though. LOL

I buy meat at our local grocery when they have meat sales or manager specials is what they are called. They mark the meat down A LOT!! I get these little mock steaks , usually 5.00 or more a pack for 1.50! A lot of people think because the meat is marked down it is not good. That is wrong. It is good. Take it right home and freeze it. Our grocery also marks down their fresh baked items too. Just keep an eye out for markdowns. You can save a ton of money that way.

This is one of the easiest recipes. I take a pack of those mock steaks, I think that is what they are called , not sure why. I put them in a pan with some soy sauce and a bit of water. Let them "slow cook" covered until I can cut them into strips. Add 1 bag of frozen chopped broccoli, onion, and green pepper. This time I actually had an onion. But, I had to use my dehydrated green pepper dices. Let this all cook until the onion is just turning clear. Serve over rice. That is it. Add more soy sauce to your taste and that is it. YUMMY!!!!!!

Food Storage Recipe - Skillet Macaroni And Tvp Beef Recipe

Skillet Macaroni And Tvp Beef Vegan) Recipe - Food.com - 440505

Great looking recipe. I also went to a local indoor flea market yesterday and got a great cookbook that is full of ground beef recipes. I was thinking that it would be conceivable to just easily turn that into TVP recipes. Not use ground beef. Use my "ground beef" TVP , taco tvp, etc. Have to try some of them and see how it goes.
