TIPS ..TO SURVIVE THE PANDEMIC AT THE SUPERMARKETS

There is no shortage of food production with the primary producers , manufactured goods .
What is causing the the shortage is people , a lot of people bulk buying out of fear .
I am here to tell you , that you can eat well on basic ingredients .
Remember not so long ago we all bemoaned “ the 3 veg and meat meal”.
Think about it ..... nothing has changed  apart from the way we plate up and the introduction of grains in place of potatoes and the use of green leaves .
The serving size of our meals has changed ....
So  we will survive .....we have the same staples , possibly more..... you as the consumer need to think about feeding your family on limited produce .
It can be a little daunting trying to make sure you have enough ingredients   as well making it last .
Here are a few tips ..............
1. Keep it simple .
2. Use the ingredients you already have in your pantry ...
3. Use the produce and ingredients in your freezer
4.Change recipe ingredients to replace the ingredient you don’t have ( the cooking process and time will be the same .)
5. You can use other flours place of white plain flour EG...quinoa , buckwheat , coconut flour . Ect
6. If you run out of SR flour add 1dsp of baking powder to 1 cup of  plain flour .
7. Make use of toasters / sandwich makers , pie makers , slow cookers , steamers and your own oven .
8. Look at the ingredient packaging for suggested recipes  .
9. GO BACK TO THE BASICS ...you are not on a cooking show , feed your family with basic ingredients and recipes from the past
10. Enjoy .......The old is new again .
