When you don’t feel like cooking, open some jars of freezedried food.


After covering the Hoophouse with plastic, today, I just didn’t feel like having to cook something. 

Making a Meal from Freeze-Dried

So, I opened a jar of already-cooked, freezedried hamburg and onions, and tossed it into a pan with some water and heated it up.

While it was heating and reconstituting, I sprinkled on some freezedried kale and freeze-dried mushrooms that I always have on the counter or in the fridge.

I put a lid on the pot to help reconstitute the ingredients and prepped a salad using tomatoes, peppers, and onions from the garden. (I don’t have lettuce in the garden so I used purchased.)

Lunch was ready in 10 minutes and, I have to say, heating something up is so much easier than having to cook from scratch. This is why I like to cook in bulk and freeze-dry the leftovers. It is perfect for lazy days like today!

What are your go-to meals for when you don’t feel like cooking?
