Recipes with Pantry, Canned and Frozen Ingredients

March 26, 2020 By Manu Leave a Comment

‘

These days, it can be hard to regularly go out for groceries. So, I have put together a collection of delicious recipes that can be made with things you are likely to already have in your kitchen. I hope you enjoy these Recipes with Pantry, Canned and Frozen Ingredients.

I don’t know how things are where you live, but here in Sydney, things seem to be a bit out of hand. People are buying things so fast that by the time I get to the supermarket, many shelves are already empty.

I must admit I am not happy about this. We are all already stressed enough, and running out of food is not something I would like to have to deal with in addition to keeping safe.

So, I thought that cooking with ingredients we already have in our kitchen, using up frozen or canned food or pantry staples, may help relieve the stress. I will share with you many delicious meal ideas that you can make right now without having to go out of your house! Let’s start (click on the photo to go to the recipe)!
