Hello SNAPpers!
I doubt anyone is quite as obsessed with The Food Network as I am, but if you're interested in watching cooking shows and finding inspiration for your SNAP Into Action Against Hunger Challenge, I suggest checking out the new show by Sandra Lee, called "Sandra's Money Saving Meals." The perky blonde hostess who also hosts Semi-Homemade Cooking, has tailored her new show to people who are finding it difficult to serve healthy, yummy meals to their families while facing a tighter budget.
One thing I love about her recipes is that many of them offer up a "Round 2", or a way to use the leftovers in a new and tasty way. For example, her recipe for Barbeque Bean Chili Dogs uses inexpensive canned beans and hot dogs, and the Round 2 recipe uses the left over chili for a Bean Chili Quesadilla, which incorporates cheap tortillas and some shredded cheese and store bought salsa. Both sound delicious and are easy and very cheap to make.
Please feel free to share any comments/suggestions/recipe ideas any time here on the blog! Also, if you make an inexpensive and delicious recipe, SNAP a photo and submit it for the photo contest at kbradley@handsonhartford.org

I looked at some of the recipes on the SNAP recipe finder, and might try a few. Since my pantry is limited during the SNAP challenge, all of these resources help!
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Where is the list of rules? I couldn't find it easily on the Foodshare website where someone said it is listed. Use of existing spices is a question I have, or just salt and pepper?
