I can live through emergency's living off my stock of canned foods can you? Share your recipes here with us.

 

 

1. Take a 1 lb canned ham

Put it on a couple sheets of tin foil and add some canned pineapple. Save the juice and mix pineapple juice and brown sugar together.

Close up the foil except the top. You want to pour some brown sugar and juice over the ham and let it cook in these juices. Close up the tin foil then cook on grill or open fire on grate. Don't forget to spray the grates so that the tin foil won't stick to the grate.

 

Next take canned potatoes and place them in a tin foil pack.

Roll them in some olive oil to coat them and then sprinkle them with dry onion soup mix or herbs and spices.

Put them on fire to roast.

 

Next open a can of carrots and add a bit of water to the carrots after you put them in a tin foil pack. Steam them on the grill.

 

For dessert: Bake dry apple slices.

Mix dry oatmeal, brown sugar and cinnamon together and with a tiny bit of water. Place dried apples in tin foil and spinkle the mix over the dried apples adding a layer to the next level and so on until you run out of apples and oatmeal mixture. Take dry coffee creamer and mix some water and the creamer together and pour it over the mixture while the mixture is warm. This is really good!

 

 

Pasta e fagioli

 

Cook elbow macaroni over fire.

When cooked drain macaroni and add a small can of tomato sauce and a can of cannellini beans drained and mix together.

Add some garlic powder and italian spices and let simmer on fire in dutch oven.

Add some hot pepper over your portion - yum this is good.

 

 

Take canned chicken or beef

Warm it over a fire and make a gravy with a dry gravy pack.

 

Boil water to make instant mashed potatoes and make them.

Salt and pepper to taste.

 

When the canned meat and gravy is made pour over tops of mashed potato piles on your plate.

 

Warm up canned green beans on your fire.

 

I often make Boston Nut Bran Bread in coffee cans and you can do this on the fire so have some of this as a dessert.

 

 

Also you can mix canned chicken with creme of chicken soup.

Make a pot of rice while the chicken is simmering on the fire. Season the rice while cooking with a bit of dry chicken buillion and parsley

 

Mix a small can of peas with the rice after its done.

Pore the chicken and soup mixture over the cooked rice.

 

For dessert have some current cookies that you make on top of the grill in a frying pan.

 

 

These are just some of the recipes we can use of the canned items we are stocking in case its needed.

 

To make currant cookies you can use raisins instead of currants.
