What you need to "SURVIVE" for a year..but let's not just "survive let's THRIVE!"

To make 1 loaf of bread a day for one year, you will need to have on hand: 275 pounds of Wheat....46 pounds of sugar or honey....8 pounds of yeast....7 pounds of salt....4 gal of oil. It is said "man does not live by bread alone...",

Cans $1.08 (includes can, lid, oxygen absorber)

Mylar Bags: .43 cents (includes bag & oxygen absorber)

Rob & Saundra will be here until December so you can dry pack!! Just give them a call and set up a time with them.

I go in spurts on here..I don't post for over a month and then one day I just keep posting..I need to spread it out a little!! :)

At the canning chicken class we talked about preparing for "everyday" emergencies. Like when you come home and there is nothing to fix or like me I hate deciding on what to fix! So, if we "prepare" now, then when we have those nights that are a dinner emergency all we have to do is open the cupboard and grab our "ready to go" meal that have the ingredients & recipe inside and we can have dinner on the table in 20 minutes with NO running to the store to grab a few items...(nothing can ruin a grocery budget faster than "quick trips" to the grocery store!)
What I need from YOU!
I need recipes that are mostly made from cans and that you add just one or two ingredients that are NOT in a can (water, egg, milk etc.) I have several recipes but I would love to have more for this class.

Sister Tami Nielsen said that she will be doing tomatoes & pickled beets (I have a great recipe that tastes just like grape jelly that is made with beet juice, I just made it today in fact!)if you would like to call her she would be happy to do a demo for you in her home!! Thanks TAMI!!!

We are getting ready to go to a family cookout tonight and I was going through my recipe book and I found this recipe that I totally forgot about because you only get to make it one season out of the year when all the ingredients are in season..which is now!! (Excuse the messy picture.) You can put this on grilled salmon or a side dish of anything. We use it as dip with Tortilla Chips.

CORN RELISH
2 Ears Corn, Peeled
2 Tomatoes, Diced about 2 cups
2 Avacados
6 Tbsp Finely Chopped Red Onion
2 Tbsp Parsley
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
2 Tsp. Salt
1/2 Tsp. Pepper

*Blanch the corn about 4 min. then add all ingredients.

The picture really doesn't do this dish justice because it is really good and I didn't have the red onion so I just used a regular yellow onion. It looks really pretty with that purple onion in there.
Do you have some yummy recipes for fall?? If you do post them!!
