Yesterday I was asked about the recipes for my canned soup mixes, so I decided to share them with you from the source where I found them. The YouTube channel is called "Wicked Prepared", and the hostess is from the northeast part of the United States. She's got some other great videos, and although she refers to herself as a prepper, I'm there for the recipes that help me create the best food for our family.
You can watch the video and then find links to all her recipes under the caption for the video. Just clink on her video description to locate them. If you have trouble linking to the recipes, let me know, and I'll try to help. (HERE'S a direct link to the video, too)
There are three recipes (remember these are for the condensed soup versions). These are shelf-stable dry mixes for Cream of Mushroom Soup, Cream of Chicken Soup, and Tomato Soup. She shows you how to make them, and then has sources for some of the ingredients. I just made sure I purchased non-GMO, organic alternatives for the healthiest options (in my humble opinion).
I'm mixing up some dry, seasoned rice mixes today. I purchased half gallon jars yesterday, too, so I have plenty now for my other mixes. It's always nice to see everything lined up in the pantry, and believe me, I've got enough things prepared now so that we'd be well-fed should we get a storm that snowed us in for a week this winter. I even have dried whole milk and cream so we'd be able to make Handsome's favorite morning cereal or our coffee.
I hope you enjoy watching the video, and be sure to let me know if you try them. I'd love to know what you think. If you're traveling tomorrow, please be safe. The farmers that came into the station yesterday all told me to hunker down for the storm they say is going to hit us over the next few days. I'm going to take them at their word. The rain started last night, and the wind is up. I'm hoping if it turns to snow, we're just not blasted all at once. Nothing like a Thanksgiving storm to wake us up, right?
My goodness you've been quite the little squirrel this week putting up food for the winter! You have a pantry for which to be thankful indeed! Thank you for sharing the link, I look forward to investigating that for sure. I hope you and Handsome have a lovely, comfy and cozy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteHi Lois:
DeleteQuite the image, right? lol I made homemade gravy mixes and rice mixes today, too. Some of the preserving I want to do can wait until after the holidays, but there are a few things I'll be making as gifts. Hickory syrup is always a hit, and we're out, so that's probably going to be on the agenda in the next couple of weeks. Handsome and I are happy that we planned a stay-at-home holiday. Hope you have a nice day planned, too.
Happy Thanksgiving, dear.

Thanks, I will check that out.
ReplyDeleteI do hope we don't get as big of storm as predicted.
Be safe!

Hi Marilyn:
DeleteWe got hit today with wind and snow. Most of the day we couldn't see to the end of the road, and all the animals were content to stay indoors (Us, too!). I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving, my friend.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Interesting note. I know that I posted a comment yesterday thanking you for sharing the recipe source and today, when I returned to see if you'd responded, it wasn't here. Hmmmm. Don't want you to think that I didn't thank you for the recipes after I was the one who asked for them in the first place. Now, crossing fingers that this comment goes through!!
