Sometimes life gets busy, and it is great to have those meals that are quick and easy to get on the table. This week's meals are about as easy as any meal gets and taste great too.

I noticed you seem to have some ingredients that don't come from the pantry in the "pantry meal" videos (e.g. ground sausage). Are you planning on doing any videos on things that are entirely shelf stable?

Great idea! We will be doing a lunch in a couple of weeks that is entirely shelf stable, and might do a whole episode in future on shelf stable meals!

Cool! I look forward to it.

A thing we found helpful in cutting costs in our household is dried beans. They're cheaper, last longer on the shelf, taste better, and if you have a pressure cooker it's almost no extra work. It takes about an hour cook time, but it's only a couple of minutes of touch time to dump in beans, water, and spices.

The InstantPot was well worth the investment for us. We ended up buying a second (larger) one after we used the first one for a few months. 5/5, would recommend!
