What can I make to eat while snowed in?

I used to have a link to a site specifically designed for kids in college but I can’t find it!!
Try this
When I get home, I’ll try to find some more stuff for you!

get yourself a lb or two of kielbasi, a few cans of navy beans, some stewed tomatos, some chicken broth or bouillon cubes, and some fresh kale. slice the kielbasi in half length-wise and then cut it into halfmoons. brown it in a small amount of oil. once brown, dump in the beans and stewed tomatos and a can of broth (or 1–2 cubes in 1–2 c. water) and simmer this for about half hour. just before serving, clean the kale of the tough stalk and cut it into ribbons. mash it into the broth and continue simmering for about 15 minutes. a nice slice of toasty bread and a bowl of this soup and you won’t even care that the snow is coming!!
stay warm

A pot of Chili to me would be a good idea. There aer plenty of good basic recipes on the web, and you can even do a simple one by getting the 5 Alarm pack of seasonings at the g-store.

I was going to suggest chili too.

get some eggs and bacon. fried, scrambled, boiled. Spaghetti carbonara!

Also considering you have sauce and a crock pot you could always get meat and make meatballs. once cooked, thrown them in the sauce and you have the fixings for meatball subs or great game of bobbing for meatballs.

3-bean salad, cold pasta salad, beef stew, pot roast, hearthy chicken noodle soup…

@VS mmmm I love kale and @njnyjobs 3 bean salad is delicious however last semester I ended up with enough servings for a small party so I’m a little beaned out for a while. I’m looking for something I can actually make and will take a while because I enjoy the process of cooking.

A rotisserie chicken is a great buy for multiple meals. You can eat it hot, pick off pieces for snacks while it’s in the fridge, put it in sandwiches or wraps or omelette’s, and when the whole things seems picked clean, sweat some carrots, onions and celery in a pot with a little oil, then fill the pot with water and throw in the carcass, then let it simmer for a good long while. You could do this in a crock pot too. Add spices to your liking, and remove the bones. Bingo! After all that eating, you’ve got a pot of chicken soup too!

Another yummy and cheap dish is to take whatever veggies you have and cook them for a while in a full can of stewed tomatoes. (Lots of garlic is key!). Use a shallow pan to thicken it faster and to make the next part easier. Let it stew for at least a half hour, to get the yummy flavors to develop, then drop a couple eggs into it, turn on low to medium low, cover and wait until the eggs are set. Then spoon out and serve alone or with a grain. Rice or red lentils work nice, I find.

A bean salad is super easy, cheap and super healthy. Use whatever beans you’d like, add some raw diced veggies if you’d like, then season it with S+P and add a little olive oil. It’s filling, nutritious and thrifty.

Get 2–3 cornish game hens, some egg noodles, cream of celery or chicken soup, a can of mushrooms and some poultry seasoning.

Put the hens in the crock pot with the mushrooms and the soup, add a little water if you want to. Season to taste with salt, pepper and the poultry seasoning.

Cook the egg noodles, top the noodles with the cornish hen and use the soup as gravy. You can use mashed potatoes if you don’t want egg noodles.

Save the carcasses and leftovers to make chicken noodle soup.

Evidently everyone makes french toast when it snows. Go out and get your eggs bread and milk. I mean what else can they be making :P

@Kardamom Impressive GA

@YARNLADY Thank you, my dear.

Meatloaf…the All American Comfort food. What is great about Meatloaf is it tastes better when you reheat it or put a cold slice on a kaiser roll and scarf it while you curl up in front of the fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa! ;) Let it snow!!

Perhaps you could get a lot of friends to come over before the storm hits and then, when the snow flies, you can host a Donner Party.

i’m thinking the food is self-explanatory?

@Blondesjon eeewwwwww
