1 gallon of water per person per day during an emergency. If you have pets or special needs you will need more. So if you use dried meals make sure you have even more water. Because you will need it to reconstitute your dried meals.
You can also use other liquids as well, but most people don’t think about using other liquids. Most people only think of freeze dried food…. and other freeze dried of ways of storing things there are other ways to the store things that can also last and you can have things in your cupboard. I have. I’m looking for words that currently I don’t have which is bad. My memory is being Fritzi today you can have the equivalent of that milk that is shelf stable for an indefinite period of time. I forgot the name of it right now I think it’s called UH something rather but I can’t. The words don’t come anyway you can have the same thing with soups that are that way they’re basically already made and in a box and some of them don’t go off. They say best before for a reason because they will taste the freshest and tastiest by the date that’s on there, but I have had some that were a year or two out of date and as long as they weren’t puffy or had been stored properly Basically they were still good a year or two after the best before date
I have cooked food I liked and put them in a jar. Right now I have 7 pint jars of steak, mushrooms, carrots, and onions with seasoning and salt. It has liquid in it, and I can heat it up and add flour to thicken it. I won't need to use my stored water and only 10 minutes of fuel. I used the trimmings from the steak and added carrots, celery and potatoes to make dog food for my toy poodle in 4 oz jar.
It’s been fun watching your channel, Jara! I started a little notebook of meal ideas. All I have to do is make the shopping list and put them together. For just the 2 of us, three months is about all we need. That is approx 100 dinner meals. If help cannot arrive in a month or 2, we will have already had to leave our home. So there is no point in waste. Now I’ll figuring out how to package the meals to protect from temp swings. Thanks for all your ideas!
Hello Jara from Mississippi! I always enjoy your meals in a jar. It's makes things a whole lot less stressful trying to figure out what to cook in a pinch or an emergency situation. Total respect my friend😊😊😊😊
I am moving to the mountains in PA and now have to replan my winter emergency prep pantry. This meal looked fantastic and will be watching your videos for inspiration. Thank you. 🇮🇹
I buy bulk items to make meals in a jar. They're all calorie and carb-dense choices. I label the jars with instructions and nutritional values. I do this because I try to model my meals (MREs) after Warfighter guidelines. In a stressful and laborious situation (i.e. SHTF), we need more than 1200-2000K per day. My DIY MREs occupy a special section in my "pantry". I also pair an accurate amount of meats and other proteins for all of the jar contents. Anything calling for a higher fat content (milk or cream), I use a handheld vacuum sealer. Everything else gets the plastic jar lids. I love your recipes! I like the creativity and will be using some of these tasty-looking recipes in the very near (like this weekend) future! Thanks for your hard work and effort here on your channel.
I buy Saf yeast (instant) in a vacuum sealed brick-style package that is good for 10 years. I’ve had it last pretty well in the fridge for up to 4 years after it’s opened, so I think you’d be okay adding it to a meal in a jar the way that you do it, and it would last for a good long time!
So glad I found you!!!!! Living alone this is perfect. I put bay leaves in my flour, this keeps bugs out. My grandmother always did this. Will be printing and making recipes. Thank you so mich. Will pass this site and info on.
Always nice to revisit the basics. I have had a slump in my bread success lately after baking for years. I finally realized it was time to throw out the bulk pandemic yeast and invest in some fresh stuff. 😊
Salt doesn't hurt yeast! It's a myth from when there wasn't a reliable source of yeast and people used homemade sourdough as a source of yeast. Watch chainbaker's yt channel where he proves that salt doesn't harm yeast in any way. Flour weighs 144 grams per cup. A normal batch of bread dough for 1 loaf of bread is 432 grams which is 3 cups. Weighing in grams is more accurate than in ounces. In baking accuracy is key.
Aww thank you so much! If you have any questions, or need any pointers for getting started, let me know. You can also text me at 207-762-7138 if it's easier 😊
I’m able to get that pasta shape at WinCo in their bulk foods section. It’s not anymore expensive than shells or wagon wheels. This looks like the Hamburger Helper my mom made me as a kid! I’m definitely gonna try this one! ❤ 🇮🇹
Can you make meals in a jar with all the bulk items at WinCo? I'm very new to prepping, so wasn't sure what I could store long-term and what I couldn't. Is everything in the WinCo bins freeze-dried? Herbs and spices, too? Thank you for this wonderful idea!
@Random_vids_girl In my experience, the bulk bins at WinCo contain regular grocery items you can purchase without extra packaging and in the exact quantity you need. It's a useful area for prepping and creating emergency meals, but it's not like you'll find everything that's freeze dried or dehydrated. I've found Auguson Farms (sold on Amazon & Walmart) to be more helpful for finding freeze dried & dehydrated foods.
New sub here. Just wanted to say that I love that you show how to prepare the meal after you've stored. Sometimes people don't show the end process. Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I love your page.
🇦🇩 another wonder video. I've added these recipes to my SHTF recipe box for FD meals. I will be making up the Lazagna recipe into MRE bags. Thanks for all you do for all of us❤
🇮🇹 I will definitely be making this meal. As usual, a very useful video. I suppose you could break up lasagna noodles for a less expensive option. I wonder how the “no boil” noodles would do in this type of recipe…yet something else to try. 😋
Thank you for posting this wonderful, informative video. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I now feel confident that I can make and store these meals. Blessings to you and your family!
Hello, my first time here and I really enjoyed this video! I really had no idea this was a thing, I would like to learn more about this! Thank you and GOD bless!
Just found you. Will start doing the bread in a jar. Where do I find to buy the veggie and sausage frozen(.?) to add to? Yeah , I am new at this.I guess I can make my own spice mix and add to the jar. Great that I found u. Learning new things that might save our lives is always important.
I get most of my ingredients right here: wickedprepared.thrivelife.com/ but I also include links to all of the individual ingredients I use, in the description below each video 😊
That looks absolutely delicious 😋 ! I've never seen that pasta before, nor the tulip-shaped ones. I also need to get some of those beans made up (maybe add some mushrooms to them). I am so bad eating my veggies. Maybe having them another way than just out of a can will entice me 😊 Thanks for sharing your deliciousness with us!❤
Canned goods even have water in them. Dried foods need clean water if you have lots of water you are okay. If starving anything is good, a can doesn’t have to be cooked. The ingredients won’t matter if starving. Expiration dates don’t really matter in a starvation situation.
I have to do more water. I love some more ideas from you. People thought I was crazy until we got snowed in. I have been doing mind like if I have a box of spaghetti what else to use it for so I kinda you it for 2 meals. I like soup so I do something like that. Thanks for all you do. I love using your ideas
I have Amish friends. They can Everything. They can vegetables, spices etc for their stuffings & meat loaf. I've seen them 🎉 hamburgers. Eat what you Store. Stire what you eat. I was so overwhelmed at first as everyone said you have to have wheat, rice, etc. I still dont have wheat. lol Store what you Eat. Eat what you Store. Date & Rotate.
In a pinch.. You can capture yeast. A couple Tbsp of flour and a couple Tbsp of water, mix well, cover with cloth over night, it should be bubbly the next day, which means youve captured yeast. You only have to do the remove some, add some, or feeding it, if you want it fermented for sour dough breads, or amish breads and cakes. But for basic breads, you just need to capture some yeast from the air. So, if you dont have yeast, or your yeast is no good, capture some.
We don’t use all that we store. But when they are a year past the Best Buy date, they are still accepted by our local food bank. We donate there and never feel that we are wasting our money, and we never have to toss out food!
Made it to the end but could not find an Italian flag. Enjoyed the video and actually have two books on meals in a jar. Would like to start stocking up this way. Thanks.
I looked up the Mafalda pasta and wow is it costly. I was watching a shopping video the other day. They had bought store brand hamburger helper. The pasta in the box was a very close to, if not the same as Mafalda. You could get a box for cheap and just use the pasta.
Somebody mentioned that you’re supposed to drink at least a gallon of water I don’t think I even get that on a regular day. It might explain why I get so sick so often.
Would adding an O2 absorber and vacuum-sealing make the food last any longer, or would it just be overkill? I'm trying to get the most bang for my buck in long-term storage.
If you want to really want to save money on jar meals, get a dehydrator and use peak-of-season produce to put together your meals. I have done this for years.
I have a couple of dehydrator, and I do use some dehydrated items in my meals but in general I do prefer the quality and qualities of freeze dried for a lot of ingredients... especially meats.
We do have a few pressure canned meal in a jar recipes. They are a bit different. You can see them here: Pressure Canned Meals in a jar: ruclips.net/p/PL-sp4L-Y4c5CXk5ImuXQWOzgvcBqc1FDg Other than that, many people purchase the ingredients for jar meals like this. There are sources listed below every video, and this post also lists many of the sources I use for ingredients as well as tips for saving: facebook.com/share/p/8P2mtzZs7WmxUa2S/?mibextid=oFDknk
I’m terribly jealous of many of the things that you have because they do not ship to my area and some of them are also not kosher so I can’t exactly buy them. and you can’t say well, of course it’s kosher for something to be kosher. It has to be certified as such what that means is somebody’s come in and checked that all the criteria have met that the place that has made it is not using non-kosher ingredients that the pots pans and anything else that’s used to make it haven’t been used for something else or have been properly koshered but that’s the whole point of having a certain marking on the packaging that marks it as being kosher I have fun products like the ones you show like the tomato sauce you show something similar unfortunately it doesn’t ship to my area… but I’m told from one of the other companies one day soon they will be shipping here so I will hopefully be able to get it then… otherwise it’ll be like when you were vegan 30 years ago or a little less actually tiny bit less and everything had to be made by scratch. I had to make milk that was in soy milk from rice the old-fashioned way with a pressure cooker and that was a real pain and there were so many other things that I had to do from scratch some of those things are no longer available in the area in which I live because either they were too costly or they’re just wasn’t a demand when people could just get them now in a jar from America or cheaper varieties, but that’s the way things aren’t they…

You can go to her website and she has recipe cards. Just print them off and put in a 3 ring binder.
@@DebbieAndrews3435 I see that. The recipes are less important to me than the ideas though. I love the ideas.
🇮🇹 I love the main dish with sides approach! These recipes are all winners. 👍
Hello Jara from Mississippi! I always enjoy your meals in a jar. It's makes things a whole lot less stressful trying to figure out what to cook in a pinch or an emergency situation. Total respect my friend😊😊😊😊
This is fantastic! Love the whole meal in jars menu. Awesome 👍🏻
Looks like a great meal! I'd love to see this as a vegetable lasagna with a white sauce... mushrooms, spinach, carrots, cheese, bechamel sauce...
Why not make it that way? Veggie lasagna would be wonderful.
I am so glad that I came across your channel I can use these freeze dried meals during the summer semester when I do not have a meal plan.
I am moving to the mountains in PA and now have to replan my winter emergency prep pantry. This meal looked fantastic and will be watching your videos for inspiration. Thank you. 🇮🇹

I have dehydrated some of my sour dough starter. I never thought about it for prepping so i think i will dehydrate more
Wait, yeast can live in no oxygen??
So I can bulk buy then put 02 absorbers in them and they won't "d*e"?
So glad I found you!!!!! Living alone this is perfect. I put bay leaves in my flour, this keeps bugs out. My grandmother always did this. Will be printing and making recipes. Thank you so mich. Will pass this site and info on.
Aww thank you so much for watching and sharing! That's a great tip with the bay leaves! Love it ❤️❤️
The sausage 'seasonings' are only salt, fennel, and pepper. Much cheaper to buy each and tune to your test.
The green beans would be good with some dehydrated mushrooms mixed in them. Or ad some mushrooms to the lasagna jar too.
Yes that would be delicious! I love mushrooms 😋 🍄
Always nice to revisit the basics. I have had a slump in my bread success lately after baking for years. I finally realized it was time to throw out the bulk pandemic yeast and invest in some fresh stuff. 😊

I looked up the Mafalda pasta and wow is it costly. I was watching a shopping video the other day. They had bought store brand hamburger helper. The pasta in the box was a very close to, if not the same as Mafalda. You could get a box for cheap and just use the pasta.
🇮🇪 This looks like a keeper
It’s very disappointing that Thrive Life and other companies don’t recognize gluten free and dairy free for the majority of their ready made products.
You are so right! Aggravating to say the least!
Hi , We just found your channel. Love it!!! Where did you get the plastic containers, can you vacuum seal them? Thank you God Bless
Never heard of freeze dried food like this. Interesting. Wondering after you buy all this freeze dried food how expensive each meal becomes.
That all looks good
I cooked then freeze dried noodles so they rehydrate quickly and less cooking
You can also use Lipton dry onion soup mix
🇮🇹 great idea
I have looked everywhere for the Zuppa Toscana recipe. Are you able to share it please. I love your meals!!

It has to be certified as such what that means is somebody’s come in and checked that all the criteria have met that the place that has made it is not using non-kosher ingredients that the pots pans and anything else that’s used to make it haven’t been used for something else or have been properly koshered but that’s the whole point of having a certain marking on the packaging that marks it as being kosher I have fun products like the ones you show like the tomato sauce you show something similar unfortunately it doesn’t ship to my area… but I’m told from one of the other companies one day soon they will be shipping here so I will hopefully be able to get it then… otherwise it’ll be like when you were vegan 30 years ago or a little less actually tiny bit less and everything had to be made by scratch. I had to make milk that was in soy milk from rice the old-fashioned way with a pressure cooker and that was a real pain and there were so many other things that I had to do from scratch some of those things are no longer available in the area in which I live because either they were too costly or they’re just wasn’t a demand when people could just get them now in a jar from America or cheaper varieties, but that’s the way things aren’t they…
