Cooking during COVID-19

[Johnson85]

So yes we all see how this is shaping up. Very possible whatever state you live in will likely be putting some parameters around what we can do in the coming weeks.

But that's not what this thread is about.

What are y'all cooking?

Obviously, if you're doing it right you already have rice, beans, pasta, etc. Those are simple and easy to mix with things.

What about meals that involve just a little more but are still easy and don't require a ton?

What are some go-to meals involving some of these dry goods and basic ingredients?

I've vac sealed portions of meat to use for different things but trying to spread them out for now just so I don't have to go to any stores for now.

I've got stuff for Fajita's, Beef & Chicken Tacos, Chicken Casseroles, plenty of canned goods like green beans, limas, black eyed peas, etc.

What are some meals that are easy, require mostly dry non-perishable goods, and go a long ways that yall are cooking while staying in?

We're not into the survival cooking mode yet. Been eating steak, hamburgers, fish, etc. about every other night, then the other nights doing easy stuff that provides good leftovers (basically casseroles or dishes like spaghetti or enchiladas). Just now gotten to the point where we are out of fresh vegetables, but still have some good frozen vegetables that are almost as good. Depending on how it looks where we are after that, we will either go to the store and restock or we will do jambalaya and boston butt in some order and eat that until we are sick of it.
