The purpose of this thread is to share ideas on "canned" meals for two people, that will provide minimum nutrition in a true emergency.
Naturally, when discussing "canned" products the sodium intake can become a concern. But remember this is a emergency, and manual labor will cause a considerable amount of sweat (perspiration), thus the reduction of sodium. Also consider that some foods (vegetables/whole meats) can be rinsed, I have read University studies that indicate as much as a 20% sodium reduction after rinsing (links/sources incoming). I will encourage entries of dry pasta/legumes (etc), bagged, non perishable items (no breakage!), but the overall theme is "CANNED!" food items; I will get this thread started: Beef Stew:

Never saw sliced new potatoes. I'll have to try them.
So what you seem to be doing is posting the end product and then the individual components, that can be rinsed, that will eventually make up a similar meal...or are you just going to beef up the meal can with the components cans? Personally, we are stocked with cases of cans of difference varieties of chef boy ardee. Salty yes but it's the same (and better in some cases) nutrition as an MRE and is under a buck a can/meal. I get heart burn from it after a while but when there's nothing else available it works nicely. Just the other day at work I was too lazy/cheap to go to the caf for food so I pulled a can out, opened it with my P38, and ate it cold. It really wasn't bad but I like some Parmigiano-Reggiano on it. -Emt1581 |

I prefer the sliced potatoes over diced/halved/whole, as they hold together better during rinsing and they end up broken by the time you stir things together. If you start with the diced potatoes, you end up with mush....and the whole potatoes are a pain and I think you are getting cheated on actual potato content per can. |

Might make for some nice home fries as well. Wal-marts sort of on my shit list now though I had to argue with 3 different managers before they admitted their bullshit of a 3 box limit policy on ammo did not exist. Now I have a receipt proving I bought 4 boxes at the same time today. Hopefully it sets a president but I'm not counting my chickens... -Emt1581 |

I'll violate the "canned" rule... for hurricane meals, where hot water is scarce for cleanup, I like to cook on a small tailgate type grill, and use skewers for any whole meat I have.. making kabobs or yaki tori.... next choice is one pot meals, where you can eat from the pot... I like Dinty Moore stew, and regularly make it into a soup with the addition of chicken broth... add noodles or thicken with potato buds and you have a pretty hearty meal... would also work with pasta or rice (preferably par boiled quick rice to save on cooking fuel)

My intestinal system can not tolerate the canned roast beef and gravy and the Denny Moore beef stew. Other than that anything is possible. Canned meals for two is normal around here. Canned veggies and fruit and I will grill or smoke some large piece of beef or pork that we eat off of for most of the week. We do like the canned chicken and stock pile it and canned hams.

 Have another set of shelves with canned potatoes and vegatables to go with it. Plus noodles beans and rice and stuff. Canned about 19 pints of stew beef in the past couple weeks, plus a couple chickens and scraps for the doggies.  I switched to all quarts for my venison for awhile but I'm currently canning my beef in pints, so I can make smaller amounts of meals. I was putting the scraps for the dogs in the pints. I'm going to start putting the dog scraps in the regular mouth pints and the human food meat in the wide mouth pints. I have some reusable canning lids from tattler and another company in case they try to outlaw canning. When they outlaw canning only outlaws will be canners. The sad thing now is I've been using this mindset for awhile now (getting things that will last and parts to make them last) that I think my preps are going to outlast me.  I don't have any heirs to leave my stuff too, it's kind of pathetic.

I just took this pic for a thread in the survival forum. I need to rearrange my shelves in the room where I store my canned goods and other food and supplies. 21 pints of beef! Trouble is, once I've canned it, I'd rather eat it than use the meat out of my freezer since it's quicker and easier.
 I might do another couple batches this weekend. I'm also starting to store green coffee beans. I've learned to roast them with a popcorn popper. I use a nice electric grinder but might invest in a hand grinder for emergencies. |

You've thought this out better than i have.
I like the Brazilian canned road beef, and the smaller cans of deviled chicken spread. One shouldn't forget canned nuts. Tons of concentrated calories, in a weather proof container. Oddball food stores may have imported canned butter or cheese. |

Very interesting thread! We can the regular stuff from the garden, tomatoes, pickles etc... We have decided not to keep as much canned goods in our rotation as we are trying to cook and eat healthier. We are going to order a "30 day" freeze dried bucket to stash in the basement for supplement as a longer term no thought required solution. Going to downsize the spam & ramin towers!

I keep the usual prepared foods too. I didn't used to eat much canned food but since I keep it for emergencies I eat it enough to rotate it. It's not as nutritionally devoid as people think. I did stock up on some things I don't care for, I don't know what I was thinking when I got a bunch of Vienna sausages. I guess the small size appealed to me.

i went to walmart and stocked up on a few more canned goods. got a couple cans of those potatoes with peppers and some with onions and bell peppers. also bought a dinty moore beef stew because i cant remember if i like it or not. also got 2 cans of the great value roast beef (need recipes for this). also 2 cans of chicken and dumplins.
the key to vienna sausage is adding some trappeys pepper sauce. dump the links in a bowl, splash on a good amount of pepper sauce and eat with crackers. when you get done with the sausages, crumble up some crackers in the leftover juice. 
and potted meat-- you eat this on a sandwich. slap some on a piece of bread. on another piece of bread, put miracle whip. good stuff. dak ham is great in ramen noodles. open the can and take a fork and twist out bite size chunks and add to your bowl of ramen noodles. dont forget the soy sauce. eta: just tried the swanson chicken and dumplins and it was fair. will get a few more cans for emergency use. not something i want to eat on a regular basis. |

For a long time my primary emergency go-to meal has been a can of chili with beans served over white rice. The beans and the rice combine together to make a complete protein, the carbs from the rice provide short term energy for labor, the meat provides B vitamins and fats, and the chili sauce provides flavor for the meal and salt. Add one multi vitamin and you are good to go.
The white rice stores well in a sealed container, and if there is no fuel or water for preparing the rice then the chili with beans can be eaten by itself. Also you can substitute a box of macaroni and cheese for the rice and have chili mac, which can be a real crowd pleaser for young kids. Rice is cheap, macaroni and cheese is cheap, and some canned chili with beans can be had for under $1/can. I would not want to eat it every day, but it could be useful for the period where your emergency kitchen is just getting started and before you are ready to cook from scratch. |

to add to what SteveM1A commented about setting up your emergency kitchen...to save hot water needed for cleanup... during the 04 hurricane season nine day power outage, my next door neighbors and I ate at the same time... if you have canned food that can be just heated and eaten out of the can, place the cans in a shallow sided fish cooker pot, add water to determine the water level...then open the cans, and heat the water over a fish/turkey cooker... you need a pair of pliers to remove the cans....eat from the can, and the heated water can be used for cleaning silverware... another trick was to use a small tailgate grille, and bamboo skewers to cook any chicken or solid flesh meat cubed into kabobs...and a bottle of Louisiana hot sauce ... you could probably use something like the Uncle Bens boiler bags to cook rice as the same time without a separate pot

Amazon has cheap backpacking stoves that work as well as their more expensive name brand ones. I have several types but this one has a nice wide burner and it's sturdy enough to put a normal kitchen pan on it.
 I have a few of those little propane tanks too. There is an adapter you can get to allow you to put the little burners on larger tanks but I hadn't looked into that yet. A few of these in your storeroom (you do have a storeroom don't you?) will enable you to cook meals and heat stuff in the event of a temporary outage of some sort, when you don't want to go outside and crank up the grill for some reason. I use one to heat my moka pot for coffee. Speaking of coffee, backup ways to make coffee is good to know. I have a moka pot, an aeropress, and a bonavita coffee dripper, for pour over cups of coffee  This is the clever coffee one at work. Great way to make a single cup of coffee
