Survival Food Tips and Hints
• First of all, if you have no power, you most likely will not be able to check your computer for recipes, so make some hard copies of favorite recipes and place them in a notebook.• Disposable aluminum baking trays, paper plates, plastic utensils, and paper towels will make your life much easier if there is a water shortage.
• Do not forget to have a supply of plastic bags on hand for the non-burnable trash.
• You can actually make gelatin without chilling if need be. Just reduce the recommended water down to one half to make a concentrated solution. It will take longer, but will set for a dessert treat.
• A one-month supply of food for your family should be sufficient to get you through the crisis.
• Start a garden in pots that can be sheltered from the elements when need be so you can have fresh herbs and vegetables.
• Buy or can foods that you would eat even without an emergency.
• Rotate your canned and packaged goods often. Codes on the packages and cans can tell you how old the food is or simply mark them with the date as soon as you buy them.
