It’s time for round two of pantry food recipes! We hope that you tried some of the dishes from our first post. As time has gone on during quarantines and social distancing, we find ourselves going out less for fresh produce because, well, Coronavirus is everywhere it seems, and we really only want to go out for essentials. So as our fresh fruits and veggies are dwindling, we find ourselves digging into our pantry and freezer a lot more now. Besides, we stocked up on pantry and frozen items in the very event that we would need to use them.
Start your day with something hearty or eat this as an afternoon pick me up. This recipe contains only four ingredients and is quick and easy to make.
