Fun fact? I used to write for a Martha Stewart fan blog and her team still sends me monthly copies of Martha Stewart Living magazine, one of my first and undoubtedly most exciting perks of food blogging. When people try to compare me to Martha Stewart though, I have to remind them that I hate to clean and organize, I can’t hang a picture on my own, I need professional help buying end tables and I’ve manage to kill both chrysanthemums and my mint plant. No one kills mint.  All of the Martha Stewart-ness I have is channeled into cooking, and even then, my food tastes good, but it doesn’t always look pretty. If you’re also afflicted with lack of presentation skills when it comes to your cooking, then your best bet is to skip the rainbow cakes, filo dough and tightly rolled spring rolls.  Opt for dishes that you can customize and change so that if they differ from what you desired, you can only be pleasantly surprised.

Which means, it’s time for pantry cooking. Life gets busy, or you’re out of town, or you’re sitting on the couch weighing the options between dallying on Facebook or putting on some decent clothing to go to the store. Facebook always wins. A girl’s gotta eat though. And so does a girl’s husband. And both of them are trying to save money. (The key word there is trying). So lately, the routine has been to go stand blankly in front of the fridge or the pantry and try to come up with a super creative dinner using only tortilla chips, spaghetti sauce and brown ‘n’ serve sausages. Gross. Realistically though, we all have certain things that take up permanent residence in the pantry or fridge. And even more realistically, life doesn’t always allow for last-minute grocery runs, if it allows for grocery runs at all. Therein, it seems like a good idea to have some pantry-friendly options for those nights (or weeks) when fresh or gourmet is out of the question and you’re desperately looking for that big red “Easy” button.
