FEBRUARY: Living Off Of Your Stockpile challenge SURPRISE winner in post 1500!!!!!

[VivaciousJewelz]

Okay, I am a FIRST-TIMER! Joining the living off your stockpile challenge. We are moving the last two days of February, so I need to use some of my stockpile- at least the stockpiled food. So, we (DH, DD, myself, and two cats) are in for...

$100 for the month!

I'm in again. Put me down for $300 for groceries and hba.

I'm not going to count eating out this month. We only eat dinner out once a week and it is never cheap. Eating out is part of my daughter's continued recovery. She has a hard time eating food prepared by someone else. She hates not being in control of what is in it. She tried to tell me that she is becoming a vegetarian this last week...no way is that happening until she obtains a healthy weight. This will be a continued struggle for our family. I also take my daughter out to lunch after her appointments. This is why I am not counting eating out in my total this month. I'm tired of not make goal because of an expense that saves us thousands.

Thanks for listening...I hope everyone will be okay with this.:hectic1:

This is a repeat post from the Jan challenge-uses common stockpile items. Enjoy!

Chicken Roll-ups (makes 8 filling roll-ups)
1-can chicken (or whatcha got)
Crescent Rolls
some shredded cheese
1-2 cans crm of whatever (used celery-really good)(amount is based on 4 or 8 count)(count is determined on size of crescent roll package)
And whatever you like, ie, peas, carrots, corn, roasted red peppers, etc (oringinal recipe, Mom's calls for pimento). I used lots of spring onions and LO early peas w/cheese. Mix chicken, soup (half of total amount), cheese, whatever filler, salt, pepper and garlic pwdr (last 3-to taste). Seperate rolls into rectangles, add filling, roll and place seamside down in dish. Mix remaining soup w/ enough milk to make gravy-like and pour on top. Top with more cheese and bake @ 350 for 40 mins or so 'till top browns a little. AWESOME!!!! Note: I did end up freezing half of the filling for later because I only made four.
