I am always interested in finding new low-cost ways to provide for my food security. It is good to have a Plan B when it comes to the essentials of life. I think growing sunflower microgreens is close to the top of my list of having food security. I can't think of any other food I can grow as quickly and in such large quantity for so low a price in almost any situation. For me and my situation, I am a big believer in having cans of bulk food from the LDS Mormon website that last 30 years. Number 10 cans full of food that last 30 years are wonderful food insurance. However, I think a large 40-pound sack of sunflower seeds and a windowsill or two to grow them in would be a close second. I bought a 12 pound sack on Amazon. Prairie Melody(TM) Premium Black Oil Sunflower Bird Seed, Pesticide Free, 12-Pound Bag https://amzn.to/3qw1B4i I have also seen Pennington sunflower seeds at Walmart in a 40 pound sack that are cheaper. I was told not to buy them as they might have pesticides. I asked the company and was told their birdseed is not sold for human consumption but that it contains no pesticides.

I did not want to make this video too long.The manual that comes with the camera watch is tiny and not easy to understand so the other video is very helpful if you already have the watch.

I will post a video here after I do it if it works. Finally, I have ordered another watch and when it comes I will be doing more testing of the waterproof abilities of the watch and if I have to I will make something to allow me to use the watch underwater and show a video of that too. I have no connection with any watch sellers on the internet and do not get compensated for them in any way. I had some trouble with the sound levels of the video. if it is too low for you I apologize, please turn up the sound on your computer. Thanks for watching. I add new videos every week.

You can learn a lot by looking at the food preppers not only store but use regularly. These 39 items are short and medium food storage items that I use in my everyday cooking. Most of them are fairly inexpensive and nearly all of them are very nutritious or a very good value. I have done other videos on my very long-term storage of bulk food items most of which I buy from the Mormons. They come in number 10 cans and are good for 30 years. The items in this video are from Walmart and Amazon and have a much shorter shelf life but are eaten often and form the basis of many of my favorite meals. Because nowadays we never know if we are going to have a continued supply of food whenever I buy my groceries I always buy more so I have extras of these in my pantry. I also incorporate my long-term storage items into my daily meals but the items in this video are the ones that I eat the most often. Except for the liver and cheese, all the items require no refrigeration. While most of them require preparation and other ingredients I have spent time learning how to get the best out of each ingredient and enjoy the cooking process. Also, most of these items are very easy on the budget. review 15 prepper bulk foods from LDS Mormons-which is the best https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXHfVyt18hQ if you haven't started storing a supply of food just think of it as food insurance. You may never need home or car insurance but it is good to have when you need it. LDS food storage website https://store.churchofjesuschrist.org/usa/en/food-storage-3074457345616678849-1 I would also like to recommend a wonderful food storage book I have found very helpful. How Much Wheat Am I Really Going to Eat?: Charting Your Way To Food Storage Success https://amzn.to/2VxiL0b This book is by Anne McFadden who has a lot of common sense food storage information. If you are trying to figure out exactly how much food you will need for any length of time, Anne has charts that cover the most basic foods to help you prepare and gauge how much food you will really need to store plus a ton of other great info that comes from real experience. Plus a lot of mistakes to avoid that will save you the price of the book many times over. I have a prepper playlist and also a cooking and recipe playlist.

The key thing to know about the little fishcake gadget is that it allows you to form a pattie or cake with low cost fresh vegetables that will stay together in the pan without adding a large amount of a binder like flour or meal to keep it from crumbling. This improves the taste tremendously. In this video I am making Chicken patties. The ingredients for today were one cooked chicken breast minced. optional One minced medium onion One grated baking potato , you can use regular potatoes two grated carrots one minced clove of garlic-optional one handful of chopped fine fresh parsley optional one egg- I have made it without eggs but with egg is better 1/3 cup of corn meal- you can substitute wheat flour a large tablespoon of ground flax seed to reduce moisture-optional, you can also use bread crumbs two minced extra fine stalks of celery red pepper flakes optional salt and pepper I did not add any today but if you have mushrooms they work very well Use low heat in a lightly oiled pan with a loose fitting lid turn the patties as soon as the bottom is firm enough to flip. The secret is to cook in low heat that will cook the vegetables but not over brown or burn the outside of the pattie. Baking is an option but you will not get the same great taste as when slow cooked in the pan. You will have to turn them over twice. You can use any fresh garden vegetable or greens, I would not use tomato as it has too much water. Ground flax seed or bread crumbs will reduce the moisture if your pattie comes out too wet. Use as little as corn meal or flour as you can to increase the falavor of the fresh vegetables. The fishcake factory gadget lets you use all sorts of low cost ingredients to provide a very tasty meal while experimenting and having fun cooking. I have also made a dessert with grated sweet potato,raisins, egg and sugar, corn meal, and cooked them in the pan with the lid on- they were awesome. Finally, the cakes and patties made in your pan taste better after they cool down and are great to eat the next day cold out of the fridge. hope you enjoy them.
