I have always said cooking is a prepper skill because we all have to eat quite often.  However the real reason is cooking is a life skill and all life skills are prepper skills.  The people with the worst diets in our country today generally share the following characteristics. They eat a lot of food from restaurants, usually a lot of “fast food” What they do prepare at home comes in a bag or a box They use a microwave more than a stove, oven or grill They have very poor or even no actual cooking skills They have very … Continue reading →

Note even if you are not keto or interested in trying it, this show can help you.  The same tactics can be used to save money on your meals, make use of left overs and eat healthier. Last week we had a question about eating Keto on the go.  That was more in the vein of like a “protein bar” perspective.  Meaning really you could toss stuff in a back back or briefcase and always have a meal on hand long term.  During that discussion both Ken Berry and I talked about ways to prep things to take with you.  … Continue reading →

Okay I am going to try to have fun with my two days of work this week and not be too serious about anything.  Today we are going to talk about some fun foods for Thanksgiving.  I’ll say a little bit about turkey but we have done enough of that over the years, so you can reference this past episode for Keith Snow’s Turkey How To for a standard roasted turkey. I want to focus on some side dishes, some additional meat options and yea even some keto/low carb options.  However, let me say Thanksgiving is one day a year.  … Continue reading →

Today I want to talk to you about low carb living and low carb dieting, and how the two are different things.  The recipes today are really mostly for a low carb diet.  I personally define diet here in the sense of a transitive verb, ie, what you do when you want to lose weight or improve your health.  When we move to low carb living, we then use diet as a noun, meaning simply the food you eat every day. The problem we have in America is diet is generally only used to describe what we do to lose … Continue reading →

I also do consider these two things, life skills.  In that if you can make mead, … Continue reading →

Expert council member and long time TSP community member Chef Keith Snow joins us today to discuss food storage beyond rice, beans, potatoes and pasta.  Sure these staples are cheap and easy to store but if you cannot or don’t want top live on them what’s the alternative? Many TSP folks who prep follow low carb or paleo diets and the rice and beans approach presents a problem for folks that want to store 1-3 months or more of food at any given time. Recently due to some health issues Chef Keith tried a vegan approach to his diet, after … Continue reading →
