I Dare You To Eat It

The book, I Dare You to Eat It, has over forty every-day recipes that combine long-term storage ingredients with items routinely purchased from the grocery store. People who know about these things have told me that I shouldn’t print those recipes on this website or I’ll be “cannibalizing” the book. Now that’s scary.

What I can do, in good conscience, is share all the new recipes I find…and I would love you to help. I’m always on the hunt for recipes that are easy to prepare and use a portion of the long-term storage ingredients (wheat, rice, beans, pasta, and potatoes) in combinations with short-term storage (three-month supply) ingredients. It’s okay if these food storage recipes call for a few fresh ingredients. The prophet has never asked us to stop going to the grocery store. Sometimes we make food storage harder than it needs to be. I’m trying to make my food storage as normal as possible and the fresh ingredients make all the difference in the world.

If you have a recipe you would like to share, please send it to me! With as few as only six recipes in each of the five categories of wheat, rice, beans, pasta, and potatoes, you can have a month’s worth of menus compiled. Then, all you need to do is purchase the specific recipe ingredients (bottled, canned, or dried) in groups of three and your three-month supply will be completed and ready to be used.

Besides the fact that the prophet has asked us to live this way, the advantage of having meals organized for at least the next three months is incredibly liberating and actually frees up time, every single day.

Tomorrow, or the next day, I’ll try to post the recipe for Hippie Tacos. Peace out.
