5 ingredient recipes using only self-stable or frozen ingredients?!
Do you have any suggestions for meals involving 5 ingredients or less using only shelf-stable or frozen ingredients!. (water, salt and pepper will not count as ingredients) Fresh produce and breads always go bad and have to be thrown away before we get around to eating them!. I like cooking simply and quickly and prefer to only go to the store once every two weeks!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I have discovered the many choices of frozen veggie blends are great for stir fries with or without meat!. There are also the frozen dinners in a bag for Chinese, Italian and Mexican!. The veggies are harvested at their peak, cleaned and trimmed and ready for our use!. By the time you purchase fresh produce, clean it, tossing away bad spots, etc!., frozen is much cheaper!. I frequently brown chunks of fresh chicken breasts, beef, fish or pork and sometimes ground beef and then add the frozen veg, cook and serve over rice!. also, leftover meat is always good!.
PS also ALWAYS REFRIGERATE BREAD PRODUCTS ESP IN WARM WEATHER!. JUST HEAT IN M/W FOR ABOUT 5 SECS TO BRING TO ROOM TEMP!. NO MORE SPOILAGE IF USED WITHIN A REASONABLE AMT OF TIME!. SAME WAY WITH MOST PRODUCE!. USE ZIP LOCK BAGS FOR LETTUCE!. WRAP LETTUCE IN PAPER TOWEL, PUT IN BAG, SQUEEZE OUT AIR AND SEAL TO PROLONG FRESHNESS!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
