Even the best of us find ourselves in some trying situations when it comes to meals. We often wonder what can I cook with the ingredients I have in my fridge. Partly to blame is the busy schedules we all have with our jobs and other important appointments.
Whatever the reason, and whatever the case, there are many things in your pantry that you could put together with some things you'll find in your fridge or freezer and end up having a decent meal. Most of us usually have meat or poultry or some type of seafood in our freezers. Having said that, we will assume that you have ground beef.
Of course, this will be the foundation. Ground meat sauce, very quickly in the microwave. Once the meat is completely thawed, putting it together with other ingredients you're sure to have in your home, you can easily prepare a meal loaf. Now, all that is required is a side dish. Again, the majority of us always have some type of starches, like potatoes or rice in our homes. So, you can easily prepare rice in less than half an hour, or even microwave some potatoes for a quick baked potato.
Now cut up some vegetables for good salad. If you don't have anything, check your pantry for a can of vegetables.
Whatever the reason why we may not have enough time to do our shopping, we usually have all types of edible foods in our freezers and our pantries that with a little imagination can go a long way. So, it is important that you always maintain some canned vegetables in your cupboards. This will always ensure that you have some type of side dish when you haven't had the time to stop at the grocery store.
In addition to that, always try to keep some type of frozen meat in your freezer for busy weeks like you may be having right now. It's always best to keep something that can thaw quickly, like pork chops or steak. And there you have it, always prepared to put a meal together in no time. - 30289
