12 Dinners From the Canned Foods You Already Have

📘 Brenda Cooks: 162 recipes for every kind of week your kitchen goes through https://brendacooks.com/ Push the front row of your cupboard aside and look behind it. A can of salmon, beans for a recipe you never made, corn, tomatoes, a can of chicken from a storm that never came. That's about two weeks of suppers, already paid for. Canned food only tastes like the can because nobody did anything to it, and three little things fix that: drain it, brown something, sharpen it at the end. In this one I'll walk you through 12 dinners from the cans you already have: 🐟 Salmon patties, black beans and blistered corn, and real tomato soup from a can of tomatoes 🍝 Beans and noodles, corned beef hash, and stovetop tuna noodles with a buttered cracker top 🌶️ Blistered chickpeas with tomatoes, a proper pot of chili, and chicken and dumplings 🌽 Homemade refried beans, corn chowder, and how to tell when a can is still good …and number one, the cupboard soup pattern that turns any three cans into supper. The meal-kit box and the delivery app sell supper to people who already own supper. Pull every can out tonight, turn the labels out, and cook your way through what you've got. If cooking from the cupboard and a smart, thrifty kitchen sound good to you, subscribe and stick around — that's what we do here every week. 💛 What's the oldest can in your cupboard right now?
