...... So 40 pounds of chicken does a lot of pints! When I spoke with her yesterday she told me that she has bottled her chicken with green chili and onions in the bottle, and also carrots and celery. She said it helps the chicken taste less "tuna" like. I'm gonna try that! She also showed me where she layered ingredients for beef stew in a half gallon jar and then pressure canned it for 90 min. Now, all she has to do is put it in a pot, warm it up and TADAH! Easy squeezy meal! She gave me the hint that if you chunk the potatoes and carrots nice and big they don't dissolve under all that PRESSURE! She layered her stew this way: bottom - onions, celery, carrots, bouillon cubes salt and pepper, potatoes, and beef on top. When they ate it, she said her family loved it!


I'm so excited to start playing with this!!!


Until next time.... may the forces of self-reliance be with you.
