Pantry Essentials - SRS Meeting October 1, 2009

This month we are focusing our goals on starting (or completing) our 3 months of pantry items & meals. Three-month supply items are foods that you normally eat, including canned and commercially packaged foods.

Buy it: Build a small supply of food that is part of your normal, daily diet. One way to do this is to purchase a few extra items each week to build a one-week supply of food. Then you can gradually increase your supply until it is sufficient for three months. These items should be rotated regularly to avoid spoilage.
