Is anyone aware of a site describing meals prepared entirely from
cans?
I have a lot of recipies which start of "brown some meat"; that's not
what I'm looking for. More like "open Can A and combine with Can B".

I think there is a cookbook, although it might actually ask you to brown
some beef or chicken. I think it's called something like "Soup, a Can, a
Man". I saw it once at Bed Bath and Beyond with a way overpriced can opener
and it didn't even offer any cans of anything to go with it!

If you search with words "instant" or "quick" soups, pasta, stews, for
instance, the internet will take you to sites that have recipes that
list tin after tin (can after can) of ingredients - which is what you
appear to want.

You can always make vegetarian chili, substituting some of that pre cooked Taco
meat they sell in the frozen food aisles of the supermarket if you have to add
meat. Start with a big can of tomato sauce and add a regular sized can of
diced tomatoes (including the liquid in the can), a large can of kidney beans
(liquid drained), and a small can of diced green chile peppers. Add a small
can of tomato paste, stir, and let it simmer a couple hours, stirring
occasionally; you can also make this in a crock pot. If it is too thin, add
more tomato paste until the chili reaches the right thickness. If it is too
thick, add water. If you like it spicier, you can always get a jar of jalapeno
slices, and add as many as you like.

So, what do YOU make from various cans? Cans, to the best of my
knowledge are not ingredients except in a recycling bin.

Pretend the foam tray with plastic wrap is a "can" of raw meat.

Then follow remaining instructions.

come the next BIG depression, a box of canned goods will be worth as

count on it...and learn to use it as FRESH foods will be very RARE
indeed.
This one will make France circa 1875/8 look like a lush picnic! It IS

You're probably thinking of, "A Man, a Can, a Plan" by David Joachim.
But even those recipes have components that must be cooked, such as noodles or
chicken parts.

Hello Blair - what I didn't describe was the backround for this
question. I'm waiting for a winter storm to knock the power out for
two weeks and I'm planning on not having power . I can eat out of the
freezer, but after a week I"m pretty sure it's assumed ambient
temperture, hence requirement for an 'all canned' menu' - Mike

You may want to lay in some dehydrated food for some variety. Jerky,
dried fruit, or some of the packaged, dehyrated foods used for hiking
and camping.

There are some canned "tv dinner" types of meals available also.

The biggest problem that you are going to run into eating lots of canned
goods is the darned salt content! It's just not healthy. :-P But, our
local grocery store carries some basic veggies in a "no salt added"
variety, (string beans, spinach, corn and peas) and, oh my, the flavor
and texture is OH so much better than the full salt varieties!

I sometimes eat out of cans at work for convenience when I don't want to
spend the money on the cafeteria.

I'd recommend also then laying in more canned soups and stews, and maybe
some chili.

Oh, and tuna. <G> If you can get some commercial packages of dressing
and/or mayo, you can make tuna salad safely since you will lose
refrigeration.

Ever thought about buying a generator???
There were tons of cheap ones on the market right after the first of the
year in 2000. <G>

A normal brained person under similar circumstances would plan to have an
*alternate* source of power... perhaps you'll consider one of those mail order
courses for improving your IQ.

I expected this, you are a champion snipper. <G>

This is why I live in Tejas. There are very seldom winter power
outages...

Oh, and the thing about eating canned foods at work from time to time...

I dare you to work in a busy lab sometime. You are lucky to have time to
go to the restroom! :-P

<hugs> and happy new year Shel!

I wonder how practical it would be to have fuel on hand to run a
generator for two weeks.

That was a riot. Good for the stores to say 'no returns'.

If I were in a known situation, it would make a lot of sense.

You would only need enough power to run a refrigerator and, maybe, one
heater if you were unable to stock up on firewood?

A radio would be good too, but batteries take up less space. <G>

The worst I did was to stock up on cat food, and batteries. ;-)

One doesn't need to use gasolene... there are diesel generators too... diesel
fuel is relatively safe, as safe as #2 heating oil. And there are generators
that run on propane (and natural gas models too), very efficient, very
practical, and fairly quiet. In fact there are generators that will run on all
three fuels.

For standby generators one would only need enough capacity for powering the
central heating system controls, fridge, TV, clothes washer, and lights... also
if one has a well... in areas prone to power outages one should have a gas
stove and gas clothes dryer.

Or a wood burning stove/fireplace and a clothesline...... ;-)

Oil lamps are good too, as are candles.

That's not cooking, it's rearranging pre-prepared crap.

You haven't been paying attention, Miche. Michael has explained that
he's preparing for a storm and power outage, and planning on living on
canned food of one sort or another. He's now (if his posts can be
believed) deeply into canning his own meat before the electricity goes
and his freezer fails. He has not, AFAIK, mentioned where he is
(blizzard? hurricane?) or what exactly he expects of all-can menus.

You are probably correct about "not cooking..." :-)

Miche/'Legs -
'Legs reads me 100% correctly.
Winter storms causing general power outages of greater than one week,
but not longer than three.
I'm in Washington DC.
Again 'Legs is correct, the next series of questions will be something

pre-prepared crap" - Mike

May be, but it's better than going hungry when you have no electricity
to store fresh food. ;-)

I actually thought about that..... ;-)
We used to live in Colorado above Denver, and it was colder outside than
it was in the freezer. <G> 20 below in full sun.

Wonder if the OP considered that?

I do it often when the fridge/freezer is getting full. And the beer crate
goes outside unless it's very cold.
I don't think it's a really reliable alternative in an emergency though.

Has the OP considered a camping gas/propane-powered fridge? There are some
around I think, at least for camping etc.

DC? Oh, gimme a break, Mike. :-) While 200,000 customers were without
power in VA/NC post-Isabel, news reports (solar radio; battery TV)
were saying "6,000 customers in the DC metro area *still* have no
electricity." This was day 3 or 4. And here I was thinking you lived
in a cabin in North Dakota, 75 miles from the nearest town and with 12
dependent children! Believe me, you're not going to starve. :-)

It's a refreshing 7ºF here in sunny CT at a little past 10 am. I'm making

Looks like it's gonna be in the mid to high 70's here in Central Texas.
<sigh> I might have to run the AC again.

OK, I won't.

It only got *UP* to 72°F today, and the low the other night (both °'s on my
patio) was 41°F while I was cooking a couple of pork butts.

But you have to remember that everything freezes at about 50 around here.
