Cannery Row The Easiness Of Canned Foods

Thank heavens for canned food. It's been a godsend these past few months and it's helped me out considerably.It's easier to make sides and even salads. All you do is open, pour and that's it. What you do is up to you.

Canned food has always gotten a bad wrap but in truth it's actually better for you at times than fresh picked. You don't 'have to worry about salmonella (although there is that pesky botulism to worry about). Everything has been cooked and vacuum sealed for your protection). You can store it for months without it getting rotty or stale tasting. Also sometime just a small amount of veggies is all you need for a nice side. Another good thing about canned food is that it come in different sizes. You can make something fro yourself or for an entire crowd.

My favorite canned products are devilled ham and chicken.I create easy and delicious spread just using these, mayo and herbs. It makes for a tasty sandwich filling or topping for canapes. MY second favorite are sliced beets.Add some fresh slice d onions and a vinaigrette and I have a yummy beet salad that goes well with everything from meat loaf to burgers. Another fun dish is a quick potato salad using canned potatoes, mayo and some chopped celery plus onions.

Don't discount canned food.It's nothing to turn your nose up at. You can create tasty meals just by opening up a few cans.
