I’ve found the brand Margaret Holmes makes excellent tasty vegetables. I want aware they had cabbage, thank you for this video

Margaret Holmes is the best!

These are a great idea. I’m 71 and some months SS isn’t enough and I live off my preps. So I will definitely start doing these bags.❤️

I am still trying to earn enough credits 😢 to even qualify for social security benefits. If you don't have 40 credits, you get $0. Even just 1 credit short. They raise the amount you have to make every year to get the same # of credits. Last year, between 2 jobs, I was only given enough hours to earn 2 out of 4 credits. This still leaves me 2 credits short of 40 needed. You're blessed to have had the opportunity to earn enough credits to get your Social Security benefits. Many work their entire lives and couldn't get a penny.

Same here, I think it will help stretch out our budgets!

I vacuum seal oreos in mason jars and they are perfect for 2 years, maybe more, i have only opened and eaten 2yr old oreos. they were perfect.

🧑‍🎤☘️thanks so much Jara. I really like that you prepare the meals you show us how to store

Jara, for those that have arthritis and other difficulties with small muscle use, there is a larger can opener called a P51. I had to purchase those because I couldn't use the little one. Amazon does sell them as well.

You inspired me to cook a belated St. Paddy’s Day meal with corned beef hash and cabbage tonight. I love your prepped ahead meals. Genius!

Such great ideas, for so many purposes, definitely not just emergencies!

You could add a homemade mix for some Irish soda bread if you have a way to bake too.

Another Easter option would be a box of angel food cake and a can of pineapple with some of the dream whip on top

What size can of pineapple? Do you only use the liquid in the cake mix?

​Hi ​@@Tamara_D. I saw your post wasn't answered. Hope you see this. Use one Angel Food cake mix and dump whole 15oz. Can of crushed pineapple with juice into ungreased pan. Bake as usual. Angel food pan or a 13x9pan (which is so easy ). We like fresh slice strawberries (or blueberries) and whip cream on top.ENJOY😊 Forgot to say stir or fold by hand and bake per box instructions.

I absolutely love these meals and have shared them out to several different type users

Love it! Thanks for the ideas. For the ham dinner we've made it as a stove top casserole by cooking Hormel smoked ham and the boxed potatoes in the same pot with the peas and serving the pineapple on the side. It's turned into a family favorite for days no one feels like really cooking, lol.

☘️ This was a great video. These desserts were so easy but looked so good. My son is grown up but I think I will have to make some little nests for myself. lol! They are so cute. I am a Mainer too so an emergency “boiled dinner” would be such a comfort food. I will have to add these to my pantry. Thank you.

The st patty's meal is something I will try. Its our anniversary on st patty's, so having something set aside in pinch will definitely boost our morale. Thank you. 🍀

☘ Hoppin' Johns from a can are pretty good. So are turnip greens.

These are wonderful ideas as always! I know you have a large family but am wondering if you would consider doing a series on prepping meals for just one or 2. Using 3 or 4 cans of items would last me about 3-4 days; lol. Also left overs might not be a good idea in shtf if there is no refrigeration. It's a struggle to figure this out. Thanks ☘

Yes! It's a struggle. Consider using solar set up for refrigerator needs, lighting, heat.

I’ll try this. I love canned corned beef for sandwiches and with eggs. I think this recipe is a great one and will have this on my shelf. Thank you for all you do.

☘️ I enjoyed this video. Those were great ideas for holiday meals in a bag, especially the Saint Patrick's Day one.

How notifications and videos are good and good to watch and listen to from a distance and watch with all your heart and share the beautiful.nice..👏💯👍🇮🇩🙋

I recently discovered canned potatoes 🥔. I think they’re really good. Been eating canned corned beef 🥩 forever. This looks great. I’ll put a few bags together.

I was ill last spring and summer. Some meals in a bag or one jar dishes would have been a God send. Thank you for your videos. As I continue to recover, I plan on putting together some of these meals for my pantry. Keep up the good work!☘

I think that I have made up every meal in a bag that you have shared with us so now I can add the newest ones to the supply. Numerous people were so excited to get a bag with a meal thank you for presenting this it shows how simple it is to do AND share with other. ( I have not eaten most of the meals because of restrictions but I have tasted them.) My husband has enjoyed them. I do not hesitate giving them out and especially in a SHTF situation they would be such a help. Thank you for showing every step of the process and offering tips and tricks. You have put much thought, effort and time in doing this service.

One of my favorite meals

Margaret Holmes canned veggies are very tasty. Glory also makes seasoned veggies; although I have not tried them, I had heard/read good reviews. I have tried the Fried Apples 😋

These are wonderful meals for the intended holidays, but would be very enjoyable any day of the year. We enjoy corned beef dinner so much that I bought an extra corned beef and put it in the freezer to have in a couple of months. I have the Solar Cooker that I bought from Amazon. It was a little more than $100. I have had some success cooking in it, but would love to see your creative ideas if you ever purchase one. I haven't found any good recipes for using it. I know it is trial & error but I really hate to ruin any food. Hope you will consider it soon. TY

Thanks Jara, I love your ideas and you always provide all of the handy tips and alternatives. To think of everything! ☘️

I store my open cookies in a Mason Jar. Help keep them Crispy

Both meals look great. I have made a similar "cookie" (more of a candy, though) called Haystacks. Melt a 12 ounce package of butterscotch chips over low heat. Stir in a can (I've only ever seen 5 ounces, too) of chow mein noodles and about 1/2 cup of dry roasted peanuts (optional). Mix together and scoop out on a wax paper lined baking sheet. Let cool until set. You could use Reeses peanut butter chips instead. Thanks for sharing more meals in a bag.☘️

☘☘☘ love your Meal in a Bag videos ..im prepping several meals and excited! I'm finally getting meals out of the mixed up food i used to prep! Thank you, Jara!!

During shtf I would skip the desert..... But for the rest... Great.

Great Ideas!! Thanks for sharing ❤

These are great. Can hardly wait to give e 'em a try

I love that you're from Maine I am too . If it's cold out you can set it on the porch to firm up

Great meals! Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Thanks for more ideas on my prepping journey.

wow you have some great ideas. Gives me ideas for my channel not your but will great my own thank you for this

Hi Jara, I started prepping a few yrs ago. Still learning & appreciate you so much! Thank you for your videos … and helping me order Thrive Life. 💕

Make sure to save your cooking instructions for the potatoes and then buy the store brand mixes which don't give as many options for cooking. Then going forward you can save some money. Amazon carries Bisquick mix with cheese and garlic in the mix in the same size bag for a little "luxury"!

These are wonderful suggestions ☘️ ❤☘️❤️

Jara, I'm going to look for the recipe. I think what your mom made when she served it up in a bowl with hobo. Stew, which would be a great meal in a bag cause it's all cans. And you poured in using the corn beef. Can I get that to you?

Back in the mid 80s the chowmein stacks were sold in milk chocolate as"hay stacks" delicious, no matter the name. Lol

I love your videos. thank you for all your hard work you do. I want to say something to you but with no offense. I think you would look so gorgeous if you tried to update your eye makeup look. You have such pretty eyes. I think they would look so much brighter with a different approach. Just try searching youtube there are some good makeup videos out there. Again, no offense intended at all. I wish you and your family all the best and health and safety, especially if SHTF.

If you rent, I wouldn't recommend cooking inside with a butane stove. Unless it's end of the world scenario and it doesn't matter.

❤ the cake

The meal in a bag is a brilliant idea . I am finally at a point where I am organized enough to do this. This meal makes so much sense. Do you think there is enough liquid to boil egg noodles? Do you sort your bags by date assembled? Or by meal?

Great ideas

How many cases of water bottles do you keep on hand?

My opinion, I have canned and dry, but this is not food.

Is this your pantry or is it your kitchen?

Great ideas. I have a question off topic. I've been looking to purchase a solar power bank for my phone. One I can easily transport in my purse. I find the choices endless. I'm wondering if you or your husband might have a few suggestions. I have an android if that makes a difference, type C. I also want to say thank you for all the great ideas. I've started to do meals in jar and bags. It's actually fun and has reduced the chaos of storing many odd items and the "now what do I do with all these beans question?"

I have tried a few and the ones that unfold into a few panels work a thousand times better than the snap rectangle ones when it comes to getting a full charge from only the sun. The rectangle ones can charge with power and then use the sun to top off the charge, with varying success. Also be sure to get a couple extra short cords (I like 6 inches long) and keep them with the charger.
