If you’ve landed here looking for my old Thrive Life recipes, cooking demos, and food storage ideas, you’re in the right place!
For many years, I shared recipes and cooking demonstrations using Thrive Life freeze-dried foods. When Thrive Life closed its doors in 2026, I didn’t want all of those recipes and resources to disappear along with it.
So I’ve moved them here to Food Storage Made Easy and created this archive to keep them available.
Can I still make these recipes?
Absolutely! While many of these older posts specifically mention Thrive Life products, specials, or ingredients, the recipes themselves can still be made using comparable freeze-dried foods from other companies.
I’ve also put together a current list of freeze-dried food companies and products I recommend if you’re looking for alternatives.

A quick note about these older posts
These posts have been preserved largely as they were originally written, so you may occasionally see references to Thrive Life products, monthly specials, promotions, texting lists, or other things that are no longer available.
Think of this section as an archive of recipes, cooking demonstrations, tips, and ideas rather than an actively updated blog.
There is a LOT of good stuff in here, and I’m so glad I was able to give it a permanent home. ❤️
Happy cooking!
Hi there! I’m Jodi. I created Food Storage Made Easy to help make food storage and emergency preparedness feel simpler and more doable. This site is home to the tips, recipes, checklists, and resources I’ve created and shared over the years.
