Today on "What is everybody canning?" Michelle posted how she made chicken soup with all her home canned ingredients. Hope she will do so here. Got me thinking we need a place to talk about how we use our home canned foods.
The other day I wanted to make baked pasta but didn't have fresh ground beef, so I used 1 pint of my home canned ground beef and 2 pints home canned spaghetti sauce. Cooked a package of spaghetti and mixed it all together in a casserole dish. Baked at 350 for 45 minutes. Very tasty, had one serving for lunch, and I froze 6 servings.

Sara, you amaze me at your creativity for canning out in the famous Yellow Rose Cottage! Your recent canned beef use to make a delicious spaghetti was really a perfect solution and no doubt it tasted much better than any canned spaghetti meat sauce!
And yes, I would agree with Michele and Sara that everything is better with butter!! I use butter all the time because I think it does the best job for taste and reliability.

Michelle, I love it when what you have on hand & home canned come together for a quick supper. Everything is better with butter.
Today I am having the kale soup from yesterday. Annie likes kale soup too, so I have to share with her. lol

Oh fun Sara! Last night I brought up a jar of canned potato chunks, did not drain, just emptied into a pot. Added some left over ham chunks I wanted to use up and had some fresh broccoli in the fridge. Threw the broccoli on top. It steamed while the rest was heating up. Actually was pretty good, and very quick. I did add some butter and salt when it was on the plate.

Today I am making eggplant, fire roasted red bell peppers, with my home canned spaghetti sauce topped with grated parmesan. Also cooking kale, baby gold potatoes, with my home canned green lima beans.

Great subject Sara.
I have a goal to empty at least one jar a day. Last night I opened a jar of beets to accompany our supper and a jar of bread and butter pickles as an extra. Those will last us a few days so I won’t count that until the jar is empty.
Today We are having bean and bacon soup for lunch that I canned last fall. I will also be taking a bag of freeze dried stir fry veggies off the shelf to rehydrate for a quick stir fry for supper.

Great idea Sara! It's nice to know there's a place here for us to look up recipes when using canned ingredients.
