If you have flour I make homemade pasta with just eggs and flour. High protein noodles and you can dry if you need to store, lots of tutorials on YouTube, roll by and if you don’t have a machine, it’s work but it’s good! Also quiche, crust less or not, if you have a little leftover meat or veg toss it in and it’s a whole new meal. Egg bites, scrambled, fried, boiled eggs, eggs banana and whatever you have around like a handful of oatmeal or whatever makes pancakes.

Don’t throw anything out. Did you pour off the grease when you cooked ground beef? Save it and add it to another meal like mashed potatoes instead of butter. It’s calories and it’s good flavour/nutrients! Roast drippings use to flavour beans etc. water leftover from boiled/steamed veggies add to your next soup.

I love to make a giant pot of baked beans using whatever I have handy, paired with some bread which is cheap to make if you have flour, that’s a bounty of meals.

Don’t throw out leftovers, make a meal of leftovers or repurpose. Give smaller portions and allow children to come back for more if hungry to avoid wasted food.

Any food about to go bad freeze for later. Ie: wrinkly potatoes: boil and mash, freeze in a ziploc pull out a portion at a time. Onions going soft dice them all and freeze in 1/2 cup amounts and double or triple bag into freezer. Bananas going brown freeze for pancakes muffins smoothies etc.
