Food Storage Recipe

We tried out this recipe a couple of months back. It was a hit with the kids, though of course we doubled it. I wanted to post this because it's ingredients are very easy to store , which makes it an excellent dinner recipe for your food storage menu.

Shepherd's Pie
serves 4

On your shelves:
1 (40 oz) can of Beef Stew
1 (12 oz) can of Vegetables (peas, corn or green beans)
1 cup of Potato Pearls (or using the equivalent in potato flakes, to make 3 cups)

From the pantry:
1/2 cup grated Cheese (optional)
2 cups very hot water (follow potato flake ingredient instructions if substituting)

To the Table:
~ Combine stew and vegetables then pour into a 9x9 inch baking dish.
~ Combine potato pearls with water. Stir briefly, cover and let stand for 5-10 minutes.
~ Spread potatoes over the stew, top with grated cheese if desired. Bake at 350 deg. for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
