Storage Chef: Emergency Food Supply (Part 2!)
As 2021 marches on, I am continuing my cooking adventure with Storage Chef, a food storage subscription service that offers family friendly meals for emergency use or for households on a tight budget. For about $40 a month, you can receive 40 servings of food selected by the website to add to your storage supply. Higher subscription packages are available too. The best part: the only ingredient you need to add to these foods is water! Like my introductory post to Storage Chef’s subscription, this follows up includes 3 more foods offered by Storage Chef: Storage Chef 6 Grain Cereal…
Trying Storage Chef: Emergency Food Supply Box (with Promo Code!)
I am fascinated with survivalist practices and emergency preparedness, especially when it comes to food. I tried a few freeze dried foods in the past just for fun, like astronaut ice cream and military MREs, and overall, they were rather good! During these unpredictable times, my interest has taken a more serious turn. Many of us are stocking our pantries as a precaution, and I like the idea of having an emergency food supply of goods with a longer shelf life compared to what you find at the grocery store. This is where Storage Chef steps up to the plate!…
Easy Fudge Bites Recipe by Martha Stewart
I was scrolling through some photographs from my family’s Christmas festivities in 2019 when I found a few snapshots of a recipe I used for the first time. The recipe was for Easy Fudge Bites, a batch of rich and indulgent chocolate truffles from Martha Stewart Living magazine. The memory of making these fudge truffles rebooted! I remember spending Christmas Eve melting and cooling a dark chocolate mixture before forming them into balls in a variety of coatings. As much as I admire the work of the legendary Martha Stewart, I often find her recipes intimidating. Maybe I’m too quick…
Let’s Talk Ramen! (October 6 – National Noodle Day)
October 6 marks National Noodle Day, and as well all know, noodles come in various shapes and sizes. In this post, I specifically want to focus on what is perhaps the cheapest noodle of all, RAMEN! (Don’t worry, pasta. I still love you.) Ramen noodles can easily be identified in stores by their blocky, square shape and low price. A pack of 5 Maruchan noodles can cost as low as $1. They are easy to make too. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, drop the noodles into the pot, and 3 minutes later, add the included packet of…
One Pot Ricotta Pasta Recipe
There’s a running joke in my family that we declare some weeknight dinners as “clean-out-the-kitchen-night”, meaning we make meals using leftover ingredients or foods near expiration. It’s an effective way to clean up, and to also get creative! I had some leftover ricotta cheese from a lasagna recipe last month, and so I thought I’d make ricotta pasta using one pot. I love ricotta cheese mixed in pasta sauce! It makes the dish so creamy, and the color is quite luxurious. To my general staples of elbow macaroni, tomato sauce, and shredded cheese, I also found some pork sausage in…
