MREs - Pepperoni Pizza!

I just got one of these and I must say that I wish that I had some way of getting some more of them. There are 18 servings in this one heavy MRE polytray!! I have the Mashed Potatoes with Chicken Breast in gravy. Great deal on some MREs to put back for the whole family. I am not sure how it would do in a Bug Out bag - it does weigh a bit. But it would do good in your house food storage or in the back of your bug out vehicle. Pepperoni Pizza MREs sounds like something to have on hand also. Kids would love them.
You warm them up the same way as you can a smaller MRE - just boil some water in a big pot and put this in it for a few minutes.

Powdered Dehydrated Items You Need

This is a great item to have on hand. Powdered Peanut Butter and Powdered Butter. We always use both and with this having such a long shelf life we will have what we need in case of an emergency. These are big #10 cans of the powder. Easy to reconstitute or use in recipes. I printed off some great recipes today that will use the peanut butter powder. Cookies , etc. I am trying to think of everything that my family might need. I am starting to feel a little anxious though, like I am still not doing enough. I think all of this cold and bad weather is getting to me. I cannot wait until spring when I can start a garden.

Multi-Function Survival Tool

This is a great addition to anyones survival kit. It has an ax, hammer, pull up nails, or use to pry open items, and so much more. A Multi Function Survival Tool that does not take up a lot of room. I love it. The next thing that I want to try and find for a low price is a shovel. I also need some more garden tools. I plan on having a much bigger one this year and will need some tools for it. Also on the look out for a GPush Reel Lawn Mower. I do not have a very big yard right now , so this might work for it.
