  • Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2011
    I first came across this book late last year, and asked my husband to get it for me for Christmas. I thought perhaps the recipes might be too salty, as "instant" kinds of meals tend to be. But to my surprise, Kathy Clark uses a large variety of spices and herbs to create wonderful flavors, and the salt content is very low. I never knew you could create meals this way, and previous to her book, I thought only of putting desserts in mason jars as gifts.

    Soon after I got the book (in December)I started making her different recipes. I began to offer classes to my friends and family using her ideas. We had such fun getting together as a group of women (and some men!) to create dinners in a jar. We layered macaroni or beans or potato flakes while we laughed and admired each other's jars. Whole meals, enough for a family of six, were put together in a fun atmosphere that had everyone clamoring for more. Even now, there are friends and family members who are teaching these wonderful recipes to others, and having fun putting them together as a group.

    Ms. Clark's recipes are diverse, interesting, and always excellent. The bonus is that her book is designed to help you use up the items in your pantry that might ordinarily go stale. Her book uses almost all the products available at the LDS canneries too, a real plus for those of us who have taken the time to store dried beans, macaroni and even pressure canned our own meats. How about a great dinner tonight (or a year from now) starring "Texas Two Step Soup", or "Hawaiian Haystack?"

    I now have many of these great meals in my pantry, and I've tried almost every one, plus it's inspired me to create my own, like rice a roni chicken casserole and refried rice. My husband and I have also decided that they are great for camping, sending as gifts to family, and can also be cut in 1/2 to be used as part of our 72 hour kit!

    So if you want a great way to use dry ingredients to put together a wonderful meal in a hurry, one that everyone can enjoy and that will stay shelf stable for a very long time, this is the book for you!

  • Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2011
    So, I am new to food storage / prepping. I read a lot on the internet about food storage - the types of foods, storage methods, dehydrating, canning, etc. I decided to get into dehydrating. After a month of dehydrating, I had a lot of dehydrated foods, but did not know how to use them. Of course, I could just re-hydrate the food, but it gets quite confusing figuring out the amounts of dehydrated items would be needed for a recipe, or how to combing dehydrated items with other ingredients (flour, spices, TVP, etc). This books greatly helps out, and the recipes I have tried have been great.

    As another reviewer has stated, there are items which you will have to do some research, if you intend to use the recipes. This book is for cooking with food storage, not a general recipe / cookbook. If you are experienced with food storage, you may have some of the items. If not you will have to purchase some. All the items used in the jars are intended for long-term food storage (2-5 years, or longer). The initial start up for items such as TVP, dehydrated cheese, tomato powder, may be expensive, but these items can be used in a lot of different recipes.

    Also, another reviewer stated most recipes call for more than one jar, and that the title is misleading. Again, the statement is true, but there is a reason why... Some items in recipes cannot be stored with others. In addition, each jar, seasoning bag, etc. is used during a different cooking process. In the soups, all items can be thrown in together. But, in recipes like the Lasagna, items are cooked in different order. It is no different than cooking your own recipe or dinner. Another reason all items do not fit into a single jar is because these recipes create a lot of food. I made the pasta soup, and was able to feed four adults. Of the recipes I have cooked, they are intended for a family of four, not just one or two servings.

    This is a great book, and I highly recommend it for putting together meals using food storage. I only wish there were more recipes, and estimates for the nutritional content was provided.

    I thought I lost my copy of this book and found it the day I received the new one. Unfortunately the bubble wrap shipping envelope was damaged and about 10 pages of the book were partially mangled. I assume this was a problem with the mailing company but was frustrating as the book is very messed up from the cover and several pages in.
    I really enjoy this book and the recipes and ideas in it. I had put quite a few of the recipes in mylar bags several years ago and and am opening and preparing the ingredients and freeze drying them. I found a couple of the recipes ingredients had gone bad and I had to throw them away. I would use jars in the future if I was storing them unprepared.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Not for UK cooks
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 20, 2021
    These recipes are aimed at American cooks ( and perhaps survivalists), full of products you can't get in the UK, and almost all needing additions that won't keep in the fars.

    Not for me!
