  "Food fatigue" can be a serious problem when you're living off of your food storage.  When you eat the same thing day after day (plain rice and beans, for example) you can get so tired of your meals that you want to stop eating entirely. This is why it's crucially important to learn new ways to cook with your...

Tonight I made a casserole with a wonderful food storage item:  freeze dried cheese.  Last week I tried it in my soup; I simply sprinkled a handful into the crockpot and it reconstituted as the soup cooked.  It was very easy and tasted good in the soup, so I wanted to see how it would work in a casserole.  I...

I was in the mood for a crunchy snack this weekend so I tried something that I've always loved but have never made myself - caramel corn! I used to think that making caramel corn would be difficult and require fancy equipment (like a popcorn popper and a candy thermometer) but it was easy to do right on my stove...

Because of the lack of spring at our house, soup has been a go to meal.  I decided to try Rainy Day Foods creamy potato soup.  It is part of their Quick and Easy line.  It certainly was very easy to make.  You simply add 1 cup of water and 1/3 cup of soup mix for each serving.  I have...

I haven't had cinnamon rolls in years, but the other day I couldn't stop thinking about those warm, sweet treats. These cinnamon rolls  are low fat and whole wheat, so they're a bit healthier than their butter-laden relatives...but you won't be able to taste the difference!  These are lovely right out of the oven with a tall glass of cold milk...

Here is the recipe for the quiche that I made for my Easter brunch. I made a crust-less quiche for health reasons, but I have included a crust recipe below for those of you who may be interested. A store-bought crust would also be fine. I used spinach and onions in my quiche, but the filling options are endless! Imitation...

Spring has just arrived in my part of the country and it makes me want to trade in my hearty winter meals for lighter fare with lots of flavor.  This is a breakfast that you can put together by combining ingredients from your pantry with fresh items from your refrigerator  This would be a simple meal to make if you're just...

I made a tasty quiche from food storage for my family's Easter brunch (I'll share that recipe later), but it made me think about how much more I cook from my pantry now than I did in the past. Some of you probably don't use long-term storage food in your daily cooking, or even at all. Although I'm not an...

Who doesn’t enjoy fresh-baked muffins?  I certainly love them and so does my family.  I recently tried the basic muffin mix from Rainy Day foods and was pleasantly surprised at how good they were.  Since it is a mix, making them was very easy.  You simply add water; oil can also be added.  I tossed in some huckleberries that I...
