Once again it's cold outside and I want to stay home! It's PANTRY CHALLENGE TIME AGAIN! My goal is to feed myself and my husband by just using food from our PANTRY and FREEZER for the entire month of JANUARY or maybe longer! I plan on spending NO MONEY for the month. Other goals in the challenge are to use up older (or less popular) canning and pantry food items that are at or near their best before dates or have just hung around for too long. It's my second NO SPEND PANTRY CHALLENGE and I hope that I learned some things last year so that I can better USE WHAT I HAVE, SHOP FROM MY PANTRY and stay out of the cold! Hopefully I'll end up with some MORE creative recipes this year!
In this first video I'll review what I loaded up into the Challenge Pantry and show you some recipes from the last couple of weeks (before and after Christmas vacation.) I haven't bought groceries since my last grocery haul in December!! We had a wonderful family Christmas away and now I'm ready to get right into staying warm by the fire and eating interesting meal ideas! I can't wait to have you join in and share your favourite recipes for me to try!

Welcome to my Pantry Challenge 2023! I'm ready for some great cooking challenges this year! Let me know in the comments what your fabulous recipe ideas are for corn flake crumbs, pineapple, oatmeal or any other items you spy in my challenge pantry!

@Layla-ir3sl Год назад

Some people use corn flake crumbs as breading. I feel like you could use it as a binder in meatballs/meat loaf

@barbaram3153 Год назад

I made oat milk for the first time this week, going to make an apple oatmeal cake, corn flakes can be used like gram crackers and make a pie crust or a crumble on top of a pie, that gave me an idea apple pie regular bottom crust and cornflake topping, make a home made shake and bake with cornflakes too. or a pineapple pie poured into a cornflake crust. I need to stop looking at food videos tonight LOL

@JessicaWanders Год назад

So many great ideas barbaram! That pineapple pie sounds interesting! :) I find it toooo easy to watch someone else cook instead of getting started on meals!! :P

@susanrenovated4728 Год назад

So excited for this series! This was my fave thing on RU-vid at this time last year.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Glad to have you here! :) I had such a great time doing the challenge last year!

@nancyculp6968 Год назад

You can make hot cocoa mix out of the powdered milk then you can use your marshmallows in it.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Ohh that sounds yummy! I’m sure enough cocoa would hide the taste of the powdered milk! 🍫 Great idea Nancy! So great to see you here and I hope you enjoyed the holidays 🧡

@thomasapayne1 Год назад

Powdered milk works great in baking! Lentils are great for stretching ground beef. We cook up a batch and then freeze so we can just toss them in meatloaf, spaghetti sauce, chili, anything with ground meat.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Hi :) Thanks for the great tips! I do that with beans but haven't thought to try cooking and freezing with the lentils! Handy idea!

@laurenyost1526 Год назад

We like to put stuffing in meatballs and meatloaf! It makes the meat stretch farther and adds really good flavor and moisture.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for the idea Lauren! :D It sure does have a load of spices in it!

@caroljane75 Год назад

Good luck with inflation. Right now, I need to eat some stuff up. Food prices are ridiculous and definitely don’t want anything to go to waste! I think a pantry challenge or $21 a week challenge are both budget friendly things to do. Love them both!

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Hi! I try hard to avoid waste usually but now it seems even more important with the food prices lately! I love both challenges as well but I'll enjoy staying home for at least a month until the weather improves before I start shopping for the great deals again :P It's great to have you watching

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Happy New Year to you too J M!! It's so great to have you back for a new challenge! :D

@allysond727 Год назад

I like to use stovetop stuffing to top casseroles. It's pretty good that way. I usually just sprinkle it on dry and let the moisture from the casserole cook it up, toasty like.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Sounds great! It looks like I’ve got quite a few things to top casseroles at the moment 👍🏼😀 That sound like it would be really good!

@wendoxia Год назад

What you need to do to the sub is broil it it open face and that will melt all the cheese and heat up the filling and keep the bread crispy on the edges but soft in the middle

@mariar2081 Год назад

First time here. I’m looking forward to the challenge. I want to go through the older freezer items and use everything in my pantry. It will spur on my creativity in the kitchen.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Welcome Maria! You might enjoy my Freezer Challenge as well! ru-vid.com/group/PL0mlSDF8Ck4IN-SoJVdy51UxTKKjwYEjr I had a ton of fun cooking up some creative meals while trying to use up a bunch of items in my freezer! I had so much fun in last year's Pantry Challenge! It's great to have you watching :D

@adriennej8730 Год назад

Powdered milk can be used in homemade bread. =)

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for the tip Adrienne 👍🏼

@tracyaxiak1585 Год назад

For the stuffing I have seen people make a crust out of it and then put chicken pot pie filling in the middle. I haven't yet tried but thought it was a great idea and want to try it next time I make stuffing.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Hi tracy 🧡 Great to see you! That sounds like a neat idea! Thanks for sharing! 😀

@erinnola-raised6543 10 месяцев назад

The bread w/toasted sandwich, yup I’ve been there. Run fingers beneath water & flick droplets upon loaf before baking(rehydrates what moisture lost in freezing)

@JessicaWanders 10 месяцев назад

Hmm I’ll have to give that a try! I think I’ve tried just about everything 😂

@erinnola-raised6543 10 месяцев назад

@joyphillips1821 Год назад

Loved it so much last year, that I'm ready for another challenge. Even more so, since I learned how to can last year and now have a bunch of jars I want to open!

@JessicaWanders Год назад

That’s so great that you’ve been canning! I really enjoyed doing the Canning Pantry Challenge last year ru-vid.com/group/PL0mlSDF8Ck4IgJ1AEovXhUSq5E00KphyI but I didn’t get as much canned up this year unfortunately 🙁 Lots of things to use up in the pantry challenge though! I’m excited 😀

@angelal6700 Год назад

The stuffing can be ground up and used as topping for a casserole, or as a sub for flour when frying chicken (corn flakes too). The onion and cherry jam-on toast! The sweet and savory is 👌.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

That’s a smart idea to grind up the stuffing mix! Thanks for sharing the idea 👍🏼🙂

@nancyanne1402 Год назад

The stuffing is good with ground turkey or chicken in a meatloaf.

@lisiannie1 Год назад

Powdered milk is great I use it in soups, dressings, gravys, desserts and more. Anytime that you would use milk in cooking.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I should try it in more things. I’m always so afraid it will make things taste like powdered milk and it isn’t my favourite 😕

@ladyray713 Год назад

Use the stovetop stuffing as filler in meatloaf. Sub out breadcrumbs. I like mix the egg and some water and a little oil (or ketchup bbq sauce whatever other stuff your adding that's liquid based) to help hydrate that stuffing before mixing with the meat.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for the tips! Sounds yummy!

@elainelloyd651 Год назад

Dear jessica ,other than sprouting mung beans ,you can add them to soups ,curries and dips .No need to soak.Hope this helps

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for this info! I haven't tried them in curry but I'm going to check it out! :D

@diannapeterson_3 Год назад

Hi Jessica, I have really enjoyed watching all of your videos, I love how real you are. My family uses French bread for pizza nights, and we slice them in half and just top them opened faced and eat them that way. They get crispy, but not too bad since you are only having to cook them long enough for the toppings to melt/cook. It's our favorite way to do pizza night.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for sharing!! That's a great idea! It does take a long time to get the cheese to melt inside :( I'll have to give it a try! :)

@colinkaak9874 Год назад

Chicken fingers for the corn flake crumbs! Cut up a couple chicken breasts, cover in flour dredge in egg then the crumbs

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Sounds simple and yummy! Great idea :D

@janicerhoades8851 Год назад

You can pound chicken real thin. Dip in butter, roll in corn flakes. Season dribble a couple T of milk and bake so yummy.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Sounds really yummy! Thanks so much for sharing! Really a super easy breading 🙂👍🏼

@09echols Год назад

Use the stuffing mix as a coating for oven fried chicken and make yogurt or sour cream out of the milk powder.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for the suggestions :) I think that coating some chicken is a great idea!

@smalltownhomesteadAC Год назад

You can mix powdered milk with fresh milk tto extend your fresh milk. If you get the ration right, you dont notice too much difference. Maybe it would work with canned milk also?

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I'll really have to give this a try! Thanks for sharing!

@zormier2002 Год назад

Those graham crackers make a nice pie crust if you crush them. Maybe chocolate pie?? You can make it with chocolate pudding and your instant milk. Also, bake with the instant milk instead of drinking it.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Chocolate pie! You have my attention 😀 Definitely need to focus on cooking with the powdered milk. The taste by itself is just so off putting to me.

@Teshuva0 Год назад

👏👏👏I’m so glad you’re doing this again.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I'm so excited for this year's pantry challenge! Mostly excited to not be going out anywhere ;)

@marcwright4790 Год назад

Cook your peppers and onions before you put them on the pizza sub. That way they are warm and help warm your sub from the inside out before the bread can get too hard on the outside.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Also mung bean falafel. Mung bean coconut curry, mung bean and sweet potato cakes.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for all your thoughtful suggestions! So many great ideas for lentils and mung beans!! :D

@Evilgamesprite Год назад

Lentil are no my favorite but I have a 50 pounds of them we are trying to eat though and enjoy them. Those have been our top favorites. I was also gifted a large amount of mung beans. This has led me to many Indian and Japanese recipes. Thanks for the wonderful video.

@carmeninherlife2137 Год назад

Sprouted mung beans are essentially the same as sprouted soybeans, great for stir fries and Asian styles soups. You can also soak them and make them into sweet soup themselves, it’s a great soup to enjoy cold for summer.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Interesting! Thanks for the tips :) I’ve only ever used them in stir fry but I’ve always just bought them and never sprouted them before! I’m excited to try 😃 Last year I did alfalfa sprouts for the pantry challenge 🌱

@lindafero4720 Год назад

For the powdered milk, use it in baked goods (either straight or make milk first with it and then use in recipes). It's usually low fat/skimmed, so keep that in mind when using it, but I have had no problems with it in things like breads, pancakes, muffins, etc

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Hi outsanely 🧡 great to see you! I’ll have to bravely try it more. I really don’t like the taste of it so I worry it will affect the taste of things. I’m hearing a lot of people can’t tell the difference though…

@outsanely Год назад

@@JessicaWanders It might be worth trying a small batch of something, just to see. I know I personally don't like drinking canned evaporated milk, but I have no problem using it in recipes, so maybe it would be similar for you?

@jaimekryzanowski6188 Год назад

Leave your French loaf cut in half and open on a baking sheet with all your toppings until they melt then put them together to make your pizza sub also maybe sauce and cheese on the open tops as well since Mr Wanders likes more sauce and to keep them moist?

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Great ideas! I usually put sauce on the bread but I was trying a different recipe to see if it made a difference 🤷‍♀️ I think open face is the next way to try for sure! Thanks for sharing your ideas 👍🏼🙂

@adventuresingroceryland Год назад

Awesome start to have specific items you are focusing on using up. -Stovetop stuffing in meatloaf is amazing. Keeps the meatloaf nice and moist and also helps if you are using a fattier cut of ground beef. -Powdered Kale is the perfect addition to smoothies, soups, casseroles, omelets, scalloped potatoes..etc. Greens boosters are a real thing and cost a fortune! You made yours. ❤️ -Skim milk powder may not be to your taste for drinking or on cereal but mix it up and keep it in the fridge and use it for all recipes & coffee. It works fantastic and you would never know the difference in cooked food. The egg cups looked fantastic. I find them so helpful when I am trying to stay on track for breakfasts. Such an easy grab and go. I've never used pastry on the bottom of mine. Great idea. I have a can of crescent rolls in the fridge that's been there so long it's got a few little rusty spots on the metal. Lol. Looking forward to next week.

Glad you are doing another pantry challenge. I really enjoyed your last one. For the pineapple add it to some fried rice. The stuffing is good for a simple layered casserole. Pulled or cubed ccoked chicken topped with gravy then cranberry sauce. Topped with stuffing and bake until desired crispiness. The spaghetti looked great. I like to mix the leftover noodles in sauce and the next day I fry it in butter and top with parmesan, garlic and crushed red peppers. Use some mayonnaise to coat chicken and roll in corn flakes. So good!

@mistegamer3348 Год назад

My mom always made pork chops with sauerkraut and onions. On the stove top . About 20 mins before serving, she would put stuffing mix in bowl, mix in very small amount of water, like 1/4 cup? Enough to stick together but not be wet. Shape into baseball/ soft ball shape. Put on top of the cooked pork chops. Gently simmer until moist and done. Would retain the baseball/ softball shape. Childhood fave, and the ball shape is what made it so good.

An idea to use your powdered milk even though it doesn't use a lot is peanut butter balls. It is 1/2 cup powdered milk, 1/2 cup corn syrup, 1/2 cup peanut butter and 1/2 cup chocolate chips or, nuts, or seeds. Mix together and form into a ball about the size of a walnut. Enjoy. Do not double recipe, does not turn out.

Thanks for the tips! Would you just put the Black Bean Sauce on the noodles by itself or with other vegetables or something?

@thequeensbudget 9 месяцев назад

Hi ! Look up Jajangmyeon. You can use it 2 ways. First, just mixed with noodles.. add cooked slice onions, pork chunks ( like cooked cubed pork chops) and raw zucchini slivers of all things. Second, you can cook meat, either pork or chicken in the bean sauce, add ginger, soy sauce onions and any other vegetables and spoon over white rice. I'm not Korean, but I order Jajangmyeon at a Korean restaurant as take out. The bean sauce doesnt really taste like anything LOL

Jessica you can’t get that broccoli casserole to brown you’re just gonna burn the noodles and burn the broccoli because there’s nothing on there to get toasty.. If you would’ve put the Parmesan on the top before you broiled it you would’ve had a nice crunchy topping but also with the cottage cheese melt and it’s not so lumpy… I’m used to cooking with cottage cheese because I’m Jewish and we make noodle kugel and you kind of want to get that cottage cheese to melt down to make it more appetizing looking

I'm excited for your 2023 pantry challenge! I love listening to your videos as I prep meals from my own pantry for dinners. I struggled with using up cornflake crumbs too. 😆. Finally used mine up last years as toppings on baked Mac n cheese, breadcrumbs on broiled tomatoes and as breadcrumbs in meatloaf and meatballs. I stick to purchasing panko now and no other crumbs. Lol

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Yay! I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos :D I don't usually buy corn flake crumbs but when i do I usually end up using a small amount and have the entire box left over! These ones came in with family over Thanksgiving! I love the idea of putting them on broiled tomatoes but I hope this box is gone before tomato season! lol

Awesome! I think we all have things hanging around that we could try and use up, right? :)

Hey Jessica. I am a new subscriber. I plan on doing a pantry challenge in Feb and March. I really enjoyed yours. Let’s stay connected.

Hi! Welcome to the channel 👍🏼 I’m so glad you enjoyed the video 🙂 I’ll probably still be at it in February with my track record 😂

2lbs ground beef, 1 cup of water, 1 package or stuffing mix and one egg This is a meatloaf recipe!! It’s great way to use up stuffing mix!!!

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Sounds great! Thanks for sharing sarah :)

@pinkkr1983 Год назад

Cottage cheese, cinnamon, raisins and a little brown sugar is my fav!

@JessicaWanders Год назад

That’s sounds amazing! Mental note 👍🏼😀

Welcome!! Good luck using up your pantry items! It's great to have you here watching! :D

Hi Jessica happy new year, I have recipe for your cornflakes crumbs and marshmallows. For cornflakes crumbs and use some spices and herbs mix and place in zip lock bag and coat your chicken drumsticks and use cooking spray to coat the chicken drumsticks and place on a baking sheet pan and bake in a oven 180 deg for 35 mins. Also with cornflakes crumbs make a cheesecake base. Marshmallow I make rocky road, but ones that you have in your cupboard I would cut them in half. I hope this will help you from down under 🇦🇺👍

I pulverize the stuffing in the ninja & use it to bread chicken .

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Great idea! It already has so many great spices in it :D Thanks for the suggestion!

@nancyculp6968 Год назад

You can make marinara sauce out of your canned tomato sauce, make sloppy joes, spaghetti sauce, vegetable soup, minestrone soup, tomato soup, Spanish rice, stuffed peppers, chili etc.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

All super ideas! I haven’t made minestrone soup in ages actually!

@zormier2002 Год назад

Kale powder in smoothies, spaghetti sauce, chili, when it is ground that fine a tablespoon here or there is fine. The stovetop stuffing, I used it instead of crackers in a meatloaf. So yummy. I added an egg, ketchup, a few shakes of Worcestershire sauce and the stuffing mix. It was a tad dry so maybe add 2 tablespoons of water but I used ground turkey so beef might be fine.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I’m finding that at least a TBSP I don’t notice at all! I’m loving it! I think I’ll have to make more next kale powder next year, for sure!

@zormier2002 Год назад

I love the Rotel over my frozen chicken that I put in my instant pot. Add cumin and you have chicken tacos

You could make Ndangu (spelling) with the mung beans. Our Tribe of Many makes it on their channel. Her husband is Kenyan.

Another fantastic pantry challenge Jessica 👏 👌 ardent Michelle does alot of cheap meals with beans, lentils.... out of the box 4 me.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks so much Jodie! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video :) I do make a lot of meals with beans because I grow my own drying beans and lentils are always so cheap that I always have them on hand!

@jodie19831 Год назад

@Jessica Wanders yes lucky with the garden. U did well this year. She does eat for $1 or $2 a day challenge. I never think of beans 2 cook with. I'm looking forward to pick up ideas from u for beans. Kids r picky lol

@jodie19831 Год назад

@Jessica Wanders u could do a $21 challenge with items u have on hand n see what u can come up with. Little more difficult bit interesting to see. Then it's 2in1 😆

@katisme5137 Год назад

I am now in your No Spend Pantry Challenge playlist. Fyi, Tamarind chilli is used more for Asian dishes. you can search youtube ( look for Pailin's kitchen...she's Thai) for tamarind shrimp recipe. the dish will give a sour, sweet taste...to eat over rice.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Awesome thank you! I will check it out :D

@palmsandsand Год назад

Try the powdered milk in bread or pancakes (really any recipe that calls for milk). The black bean sauce for stir fries; the tamarind chili as an addition to Thai or Indian foods and maybe a creamy chicken and stuffing casserole or stuffed pork chops. Hope that helps.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Thanks for all the great ideas! Stuffed pork chops 👍🏼

@lauraklein6405 Год назад

I make gnocchi and serve with spaghetti sauce. Delicious!

@JessicaWanders Год назад

Sounds great! Have you made it with this semolina flour? Have you had any luck freezing the gnocchi to use later? I'm thinking about doing up the whole bag and freezing what we don't use?

@micahmiller5923 Год назад

So excited to see this video and series! Those cornflakes crumbs could be used in place of breadcrumbs in meatballs. And you could make meatball subs for a fun lunch with leftover meatballs. As for the darker days, I read online this year that Dec. 21st (Winter Solstice) is the author's favorite day of Winter because every day after that is longer than the day before. So now I'm reminding myself every day that the sun will be out longer than yesterday to help me overcome my S.A.D. this year.

We just used up a stuffing mix in my pantry and I have one more which I was going to look for a casserole. I have seen people use them in meatloaf. No quick about it! Love your pantry challenge. Dry milk to make homemade bisquik and you can use it for tons of things like garlic cheddar biscuits and I make a fried chicken with it we love.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I’m on the look out for stuffing mix casseroles too! I might have a couple in mind for next week 🙂 Making a baking mix with the powdered milk is a really useful idea! Thanks for sharing 👍🏼

I don’t do any canning or preserving, so I don’t have a backlog of jars like you, but I am still doing a pantry challenge this month. Going to use up all the stuff in my small garage freezer and really empty the pantry. Then I can give both a really good scrubbing. I will probably need to buy fresh fruits and veggies, though. You give me inspiration! A lovely way to spend a dreary Saturday afternoon with a friend.

@JessicaWanders Год назад

I have a lot less home canning to use up this year! It's always a great time to stay home and find creative ways to use up things hanging around in the pantry. I can't wait to hear how you're doing with your pantry clean out! It's always great to have you here watching
