Week 4 of the 2011 Food Storage Challenge

Week 4 $10 challenge:

1 bag of 10 pack 2 min noodles

Week 4 $20 challenge:

2 bags of 10 pack 2 min noodles

Why are we storing 2 min noodles for this challenge? They're not overly nutritious usually however, in an emergency situation they don't take long to cook, they will fill you up fairly well and if you have stored some dried veggies, you can add those in along with the flavouring and you end up with a soup that will keep you going.

Add dried vegetables such as capsicum, mushroom, corn, peas, beans, carrot for a soup.

Drain some of the water (drink that in an emergency situation). Add some tinned veggies to it - corn, beans, lentils will all work well. You could even add some tomatoes or tinned/diced tomatoes to vary it.
