Shelf Stable Saturday Sandwich Fillings

AAAAANNNNDDDD shortages in the news again. Costco is limiting toilet paper, there are rumors of toy shortages for Christmas and there are hundreds of ships sitting in ports with full containers just waiting to be unloaded. More and more we are going to be cooking and feeding our families with whatever we can find. I am trying to build up our list of shelf stable recipes and begin rebuilding our emergency food stash.

Prices are rising at a ridiculous rate and people who have never had to use a food pantry before are going to be finding themselves in just that spot. When your budget or SNAP food stamps are not enough, please don't go hungry. There is lots of help out there. If you don't know where to find a food pantry, most churches in your area keep a list, all you have to do is call and ask and they can point you in the right direction, no strings attached. Tips for Using a Food Pantry 1. Use several food banks. Using more than one food bank (when available) is smart because you may be able to get something at one that you may not get at another. For instance, one may have a deal with a local gardener that gives them their extras. This may mean this food bank has more produce.
