numbers or URLs, although I'm certain some smart ass will mention it.

For me, it's garbanzo beans. I can whip up a curry with them that even makes my Indian husband happy.

What's the essential staple in your kitchen?

6. eggs, potatoes, or pasta.

I try to keep frozen veggies too.

But an omelet or some nice poached eggs on toast can be very satisfying

7. butter

8. Chicken

Or pasta, or rice.

If I had to just go with one, I think it would probably be the rice.

9. Chicken, ground turkey and pork.

I've been using more of all three ever since the beef scare started. I think I'm gonna swear off beef permanently.

11. ditto

Hey, remembering our earthquake thread from yesterday maybe we should throw some pasta or rice in the emergency kit.

[fleabert]

12. make sure you include an extra bottle of water, a pot, and a way to cook!

we'll be the best fed in town! I'm thinking I should add some dried roasted tomatoes to the pasta for flavor, some garlic and basil, it would be like a restaurant meal!

(that is actually what my husband takes with him camping as a meal, the other boys are pissed when they pull out their MRE's and boil in bag oatmeal for dinner!)

[Gormy Cuss]

14. LOL

I used to make my own "camping mixes" of pasta, spices and dehydrated veggies; that and a small can of tomato sauce was high living!

My two sons ages 20 & 15 eat everything when I'm not present.
