HOW DO I ESTABLISH A THREE MONTH SUPPLY OF FOOD?
Method One
1. Make a list of meals your family eats regularly.
Note: because you will be storing the food for these recipes you will need to replace perishable fruits and vegetables with canned items.
· 3 Breakfast Meals
· 5 Lunch Meals
· 10 Dinner Meals
2. List the foods needed to make those meals.
3. Purchase in bulk the foods on the list.
Method Two
Basic Food Supply – (per adult per month – all cans are #10)
Grains – 3 cans of wheat, 1 white flour, 2 rice, 1 oats, 1 pasta
Legumes – 1 beans
Powdered Milk – 1 can
Oil/Shortening – 1 3 lb. can
Sugar or Honey – 1 can
Salt – 12 oz.
Water – 14 gals.
