Cooking From My Pantry: WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

We hope that you will find this page useful in organizing your Pantry / Food Storage, Meals, Time and Life!

What you see here is just an example of what can be done. We encourage you to duplicate whatever will work for you using your own recipes. It's a little bit of work to get it set up - we've helped where we can in getting that part done - but once you have it - IT WILL SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE and SAVE YOU MONEY! We wish there was a way to convey the feeling that you will get in knowing that your family has 2 weeks (1 month or 3 months) worth of meals on hand and ready to make.

If you have questions or would like a downloadable attachment of the 2 week Planner or Recipes/Box Labels, please drop us a note at:

Happy Planning!

Cooking from My Pantry
is a collection of several ideas from many sources that have been brought together and organized to help the Modern day woman to:
1. Provide nutritious meals that her family likes and will eat!
2. Save Money
3. Save Time
4. Create an effective Food Storage Rotation program.

Having food ready in individual bags along with the recipe and ingredients makes meals and baked goods
quick and easy.

All types of recipes are workable, from main dishes to desserts and snacks. These recipes may or may not be made completely from storage items.

Including our families in filling the bags is a great way to teach children and other novice cooks how to cook easy meals for themselves.

Save Money on Groceries
Research shows that we can cut our food bill in half if we do three things:
1. Make either a two-week or one-month menu that includes breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks
2. Buy in bulk
3. Have a food pantry

THAT'S . . . Cooking from Your Pantry!

Dear Brothers and Sisters: Our Heavenly Father created this beautiful earth, with all its abundance, for our benefit and use. His purpose is to provide for our needs as we walk in faith and obedience. He has lovingly commanded us to “prepare every needful thing” (see D&C 109:8) so that, should adversity come, we may care for ourselves and our neighbors and support bishops as they care for others. We encourage Church members worldwide to prepare for adversity in life by having a basic supply of food and water and some money in savings. We ask that you be wise as you store food and water and build your savings. Do not go to extremes; it is not prudent, for example to go into debt to establish food storage all at once. With careful planning, you can, over time, establish a home storage supply and a financial reserve. We realize that some of you may not have financial resources or space for such storage. Some of you may be prohibited by law from storing large amounts of food. We encourage you to store as much as circumstances allow. May the Lord bless you in your home storage efforts. The First Presidency
