One random thing I like on these days is a baked potato. Sautee some veggies or even just onion, black beans, and spices, maybe cheese, sometimes bbq sauce. So warm and cozy!

I have sandwich things and easy to heat things like chicken nuggets so the kids can help themselves.

I have baking and hot cocoa ingredients.

I just made a big pot of pasta fagioli soup that can last us a few days.

Chicken and fish in the freezer to defrost as needed. Salad ingredients.

Amazon fresh is out of every single brand and size of ricotta AND all jarred sauces and the safeway I just went to had 4 ricotta containers left in the entire store.

I'm actually making stuff shells, but basically a lasagna in shell form?

You're also all eating a crapload of strawberries and bananas.


Guilty, kind of, but lazy. I have 1.5 containers of ricotta in my fridge to make either meatballs or lasagna soup. I bought them last week, though, just didn't get to the recipe.

My kids DO eat a crapload of bananas. And mandarins and pears. I just always need to buy bananas, they don't keep. Not buying strawberries right now though, they're overpriced because winter.

Right now I really just need flour and bananas. We're reasonably well stocked but I want to bake. If we lose power for days it's a whole different issue.

You could not force me at gunpoint to be in a grocery store after weather news breaks.


Same. I also like to eat through the stuff I have like a challenge and clean up the pantry.


That too. We keep a very tight ship, but still we accumulate.

How do you keep the sauce preserved without sealing it in a jar?

You CAN use cottage cheese instead of ricotta. But thats crazy! I have a hard time finding ricotta normally so I dont think there is normally much stock in general.

On the menu
Chili and cornbread, use leftover chili later on with baked potatoes
French toast and bacon Sunday
Meatloaf with wedge fries
Spaghetti
Maybeeee broccoli and cheese soup.


I get making things ahead of time for the sake of convenience . . . but hot cocoa? Seriously?

Chicken Pot Pie
Homemade Pizzas
Homemade Bread
I'm sure some sort of cookies
We also have tilapia in the freezer so that will be one kind of lighter meal

Hopefully the power doesn't go out!
