Hello! It’s Wednesday! How is meal preparation and planning, etc. going in your home during these shelter in place days? Have you been able to find what you need to make meals for your family or are you feeling like you should watch more episodes of Chopped for ideas on how to use what’s in the pantry? Is, “How can you be hungry again?” a phrase you are frequently saying? Well, hopefully, you have all that you need, and if you do not, please reach out to your SLOCA community! We are all in this together.
Today we have compiled for you a handful of recipes that only require a handful of ingredients. Many of these are even easy enough for our perpetually hungry kids to make. So put them to work!

I love these! Thanks for compiling this list!
Hope you can find something the family will enjoy!
I’d like to place six orders for that Cajun tenderloin dish. What time do you open today?
I tried to pick easy recipes, but sorry, they are not THAT easy. You’ll have to place your order with your local kitchen.
This is awesome! Now that we are literally making every single meal at home, I need some fresh ideas. Thank you, Sharon!
Oh good! Let us know if any of them are a success.
