Limited Ingredients

	Forum	Topics	Replies	Last Post Info
	Limited Ingredients Very often food banks give a lot of canned soup, dried soup, various kinds of beans, rice, pastas, powdered milk, prepacked macaroni and side dishes, and canned meat (tuna, salmon, ham, chicken). Casseroles are a good idea, homemade soups, chilis and anything else you can think of. Need a recipe and only have a couple of items, you can ask here too.	18	0	Dec 17 2007, 06:15 AM In: Baked Tomatoes 'Provenc... By: FoodBankCook
