Answer 1

Answer 2

It depends on the types of foods you are getting from the pantries. I always found that the best way to cook with food that you have available is to just be creative and think about it from what you like. I remember when I was a teenager after my mom and dad got divorced my dad was really poor and eating a lot of food pantry stuff. When I visited him I cooked for the family and I would just be creative with what I had. If I had mac and cheese, a can of tuna, cream of asparagus soup (or mushroom, etc) and peas, I would cook the mac and cheese, mix it with the soup, peas, tuna, etc and voila, tuna noodle cassarole!!!

I would need to know the ingredients to give you recipe ideas. :-)

Feel free to contact me through my profile and I'm sure I can give you some creative food ideas! :-)

I love stuff like that. I actually started writing a cookbook once but haven't finished it yet.

ps-The cassarole doesn't only need to be with tuna and mac and cheese, you could make it with canned ham, or salmon, or chicken, etc.


When I was a kid my mom used to feed me SPAM, Ramen, and lettuce. I LOVED it!! I still eat it now when I have PMS really bad. lol
