Suppers will be chicken and rice, bean soup, sloppy joes, potatoes and onions, and chicken with veggies.
Both green and red apples will be snacks.
Today we were blessed to receive peach turnovers as a treat!
I will be canning jalapenos and peaches (not in the same jars!) tomorrow to add to my food storage.
So far we have 60 lbs of kidney beans, 20 lbs of pintos, 50 lbs of rice, 6 large cans of tomato sauce (on sale for 75 cents!) several frozen bags of homemade broth, 2 cases of canned broth, 6 boxes of stove top stuffing (on sale for 30 cents a box), jars of plums and mangoes that I have canned, 35 gallons of wheat berries, 10 lbs of sugar, 10 lbs cheese, 10 lbs peanut butter, 10 pounds mayo, 10 lbs of butter, 10 lbs brown sugar, 10 gallons of cooking oil, several boxes of tea bags, 87 lbs of oatmeal (YES 87) , 3 lbs of corn meal, 2 cases of pasta, 2 pounds of salt, several cans of dog food, 1 large box of instant dry milk, 2 boxes of shelf stable milk, and many cans of vegetables. I am still working on it. I only get what I can get at a really good deal or is on sale at the time, or I am blessed to receive from others. That's why the hodge podge of sorts. From this I can make spaghetti, oatmeal, muffins, bread, peanut butter sandwiches,cookies, bean soups, corn bread, beans and rice on tortillas, all with fruit on the side. My hens will give us eggs daily. It's a start :)
The brown sugar, butter, wheat berries, oatmeal and cheese came from Emergency Essentials. click the button if you are interested in looking around to see what you can order.

And those are the good eats at my house this week. What's cookin' at yours? How is your food storage coming along? Comment and let me know.

Still working on my food storage. Sadly, I have neglected it, as we have had to cut back financially, which meant dipping into my long term storage the past few months. Really need to concentrate on getting it built back up. Love your post, it was really motivating for me :)
Sounds like you are making progress Tami! We are good in the food storage area, 1 year+ here. God has truly blest us and we give him all the honor and glory for what we have and have done here. I am so looking foward to your journey on your new land off grid!
Sounds great! I need to get myself more organized in the area of meals. Reading this post was encouraging. God bless you! :)
Will you be having a cellar on your land? I have a friend who has an old time cellar, AND, her husband buried an old ship storage metal unit thing, connected to the house for a storm shelter and she has started using it for food storage as well. Plus, during a storm they can crack open something to eat if need be. http://countrysidechristianacademy.blogspot.com/
