What I did was planned by meals times months. Example items like spaghetti once a month for six months. So 6 packages of hamburger, six noodles, six sauce, six tomatoe bits, six amounts of dried veggies of onions, mushrooms, bell peppers. Then onto the next meal. I'm at about 8 months.

Consider canned ground beef. I do the same. Water, Bouillon cube, dried vegetable or vegetables make a simple soup. Example beef bouillon cube, 1 and 1/2 cup of water and a spoon of dried minced onion makes a bowl of french onion soup. So 1 jar with 25 beef bouillon cubes and 2 bottles of dried minced onion makes 25 small single serve batches of soup. It was less than $3 but prices going up so it should cost a little more.

Watching this, realized my sis has kind of been doing this all along. Instead of organizing her pantry by veggies, fruits, crackers etc, she does it by meal ingredients minus any refrigerator/freezer items. Like ingredients needed for chicken chili all together, those needed for tacos all together, etc. Hope that makes sense. At a glance she knows if she has all the pantry items she needs for whatever. I think she is brilliant!

Honey is a great staple not only for the fact it never spoils but works great as a natural sweetener. I use a stone style mustard and honey with the possibility of adding ketchup especially for coating meatloaf (meat or veggie alternative). Honey could go into your tea, oatmeal, Grape Nuts, Cream of Wheat, oatmeal, glazed chicken, sauce for mixed beans to make them into a sweet and sour with ground stoned mustard, pancakes, waffles, rice for a sweet sour dish, etc.

@Saturn57 2 жыл бұрын

@@KMF3 as a first step, do an inventory of your pantry. Then sit down and come up with as many meals as you can using the ingredients. If you have enough rice to do 2 or 3 meals for example, make sure to count that in. Check for expiration dates too. This will help you know what items you use often and it's a good hypothetical scenario in case you need to eat out of your pantry. It will also help you fill in any missing items you use regularly. Now for replacing pantry items, you can divide your pantry items in to 2 types (and if you have space, separate them physically): 1. For regular use and 2. For storage (this will be your "stach"). You can add to the stach little by little. Even if it's $1-5 a week. Buy things you would eat and when they're on sale. When you use up an item from the first pantry, you can replace it from the stach. Hope this helps.

I really appreciate you both. I wasn't raised having a lot of money or things and watched plenty of my friends be unhappy with the spoils that they got either daily or at holidays. My parents pulled off a big vacation and a some small ones (even if it was hauling the camper on a drive to where my dad had to spend summer camp for the military and camping for a period of time). When I listened to some peoples comments about you two, that you read on another video, I was a little bit disgusted with some peoples thoughts on what is meaningful. You don't have to have big dollar things or big trips to make memories with your loved ones. You don't need massive amounts of Christmas presents either. Some of my favorite memories were grocery shopping with my mother and watch how far she could stretch $20.00 or looking at a nearly empty fridge and cabinet and finding something creative to do with what we had. And those memories are recalled far more often in my adult life than those of the big vacation we took, although I appreciated them all. Keep doing you. What you have given to your kids is far more valuable than a pile of cash ever could have been.

I love this video and plan to watch again. It's one thing having boxes of supplies that sit overwhelming in my living room. This video helps remove the fear that accompanies what is to come. How will we really manage?! Both of you are so relaxed and progressive that it helps me relax as I move forward, preparing. After I engage the suggestions here, I will be relaxed and prepared. Thanks and God bless us all. Aameen

Love balsamic vinegar! Also love Japanese Plum vinegar. Makes a great salad dressing or use in a cold noodle salad (with lots of veg). I like dehydrated onion with a little salt added for crunch. No blanch, add Himalayan salt to cut onions, mix well & dehydrate. Yumm

I love Bulk/Batch Vegan cooking for myself, a fantastic way to prepare for my work week, I make ahead all my breakfast, lunches for work and dinners. This allows me to stay on track with my budget. Knowing full well I have dinner already cooked and waiting for me at home, this stops me from ordering out at a restaurant. I cook very similar to you with cooking up a pot of beans like garbanzo beans, this allows me the ability to make soup, stews, dips and spreads a lot of fun way coming up with ideas and not getting bored. I had a craving for chicken salad sandwiches. So I smashed up chickpeas, diced onion, celery, diced red pepper, salt and pepper with vegan mayo, poultry seasoning and used the same spices you would had used for chicken salad very good substitute.

Holy crap! We could live off our pantry and freezers for at least 9 months. Might have to decrease serving sizes for myself, but the boys would eat well.

Larry would be happy to know that I’m dehydrating pineapple this week. A local produce market has them at 3 for $5. I receive a small amount of food stamps and I try to spend them on fresh produce because our state will double the amount of snap spent on fresh produce. So I bought 6 pineapples for $5. The first batch is in the dehydrator. They’ll be shelf stable and so much better than canned

That sounds wonderful!! I have never dried dehydrating pineapple, but, the next time I find pineapple for a great price I am definitely dehydrating some of it. Thanks for the inspiration.

I too have food stamps and buy clearance, managers specials, sales, digital and paper coupons. My favorite day to shop at one store is on Senior Discount Day

This is great info! I purchased a Presto canner in July and got all my meat out of the freezer and pressure canned it. I have also pressure canned milk, butter, ground beef, chicken, beef stew, potatoes and apple sauce from our trees. We use all of our pressure canned foods. We don't eat much meat but we keep it on hand for grampa just incase he runs out of food. Most of our meals are rice, bean or noodle based.

I cook about every three months and freeze most of it. I still have plenty in my pantry and freezer to make more meals. I work a "reverse schedule" and don't get off until 6:30 or 7:30 PM so the last thing I want to do is cook or have a heavy meal when I get off. I have plenty of soup, stews, and other items in the freezer that I can just thaw out and enjoy each evening. Also have a full shelf of spices.
