Try substituting a jar of salsa for one of the cans of tomatoes. It will give it a bright flavor plus add peppers and herbs with no additional work!


Quick Weeknight Recipe: 5-Ingredient ChiliRecipes from The Kitchn

Empty shelves. x2 weeks of something I really need. When people talk about the economy and how people aren't buying, maybe it's because the products aren't there.

Slice and dry them for use in beverages. I second the frozen juice idea and don't forget your local soup kitchen or church food pantry might really appreciate a donation.

I love mini M&M's. Sometimes just the M&M's or sometimes I mix them with a handful of nuts and raisins.

Pomi for me! And the boxes fit on my pantry shelf so much better than cans.

Hash and eggs, French toast with bacon, sausage or ham, leftover spaghetti with scrambled eggs, onion and ham - these are some of the ways my family has eggs for dinner. The quicker the recipe, the better!

I don't like it. The whole kitchen is too bright for my taste. If the kitchen is the heart of the home, I guess I like mine more calming. (Also, I'd hate to be the next buyer of their home and have to remove it!)

Too white. Love the countertops. Hate the stools.

Thanks Hamiltonmka! I know my neighbor used the ends of cold cuts, processed cheese (like Velveeta), pickle juice and mayo. Just didn't know the amounts. Your recipe sounds yummy to me!

For the icing, could you use whipped cream cheese to make it easier to blend and spread? And HamiltonMKA, could you post the recipe for bologna salad? A neighbor used to make one but I never got the recipe? Thanks so much!

Hellman's mayonnaise (or Best Foods) has a great recipe for a chocolate cake that my mother used to make. It is delicious!

My Nana always made Jello spritz cookies in strawberry and lime as part of her cookie trays. Forkbyte - what make is your electric cookie gun? I've had no luck with manual guns.

I love leftover pasta with butter and seasoned bread crumbs. Add grated parmesan cheese and lots of black pepper. I call it "sandy pasta".

I really don't like the title of your essay. Perhaps "When grocery stores are lacking..." would be better. Your title seems vulgar (and no, I am not ancient). I've had the experience of needing something at the store and not finding it - it makes you get more creative!

Does your pork purveyor do mailorder? It sounds like the pork from my youth. I would love to try pork chops and a pork roast from happy, fat pigs!

I use potato chips this way all the time - great with ham salad, cheeses, pepperoni. Nice crunch and salty!

I've done this with the toppings from a spinach, sausage and mushroom pizza. Yummy to the max! I also make something I call crustless pizza: just spray a small bowl with PAM. Add a thin layer of tomato sauce, cheese and other toppings. Nuke to melt the cheese. Voila! Crustless pizza - can also be used in an omelette.
