Instant non-fat dry milk (Carnation brand can be found in most grocery stores) or regular non-fat dry milk powder if you have some in your food storage already.(optional) Printable gift tags for Cricut machine.Instruction labels or Sharpie marker to write instructions on lid.Sandwich-size plastic baggie or ziptop bag.Foodsaver vacuum sealer with hose and wide-mouth jar sealer attachment, AND/OR 100cc oxygen absorbers (one per jar).Wide-mouth quart mason (canning) jars, with new lids, and rings.Except this one goes one step further and includes the milk and butter in powder format, so that all you need to do is add water! The meal in a jar is shelf-stable for 5-10 years (as long as you store it properly and check the seal), and it also makes a terrific kid-friendly neighbor gift for the holidays. I modified it to fit the jar better and tweaked the taste and directions a bit to fit my personal preferences.īut basically, it is pretty much the same as the stuff you get in the blue box at the store. The recipe is adapted from one that I got from Crystal at Store This, Not That! (previously Everyday Food Storage). My kids used to go through mac & cheese like you wouldn’t believe, so this Mac & Cheese Meal in a Jar has been very handy to have on hand! And who doesn’t want a few “comfort” food items in their storage, either for use in an emergency or for a quick-to-fix dinner on busy nights, right?
