Welcome to DAY 2 of this year’s 7 Day Challenge. For 7 days, we are testing out our food storage to see just how prepared our pantries are for an emergency! Each day will bring a NEW mock emergency or situation that will test some aspect of our preparedness plans. Please feel free to adapt the scenarios to fit your own family and situation.

In order to receive each day’s emergency scenario in your email please sign up for the 7 Day Challenge email list.

REMEMBER: No going to a grocery store, restaurant, or spending any money for the entire 7 days … and on that note, let’s get started!

DAY 2: TRIPLE THREAT TUESDAY

Today’s challenge is helping us plan ahead for emergencies. It is always a good idea to prepare extras when you are already making a meal anyway. So your task for today is to create THREE versions of your meals: one to eat, one to save for later, and one to share with someone in need.”

Today’s Tasks:

• Make a triple batch of a breakfast food using food from your pantry/food storage.  Save one for a later breakfast.  Give one to a family in need or as a nice gesture.  Eat one!
• Make a triple batch of a lunch food using food from your pantry/food storage.  Save one for a later breakfast.  Give one to a family in need or as a nice gesture.  Eat one!
• Make a triple batch of a dinner food using food from your pantry/food storage.  Save one for a later breakfast.  Give one to a family in need or as a nice gesture.  Eat one!
• Post a picture or video of one of your meals today.  Bonus points for including the recipe!

Advanced Option:

• Choose a different method of preservation for each of the meals (i.e. Jar meal, canned, frozen)

Daily Worksheets:

Print out the worksheets below and add items you need to do, to learn, and to buy as you find holes in your preparedness plans throughout the week.
