RE: Using Our Stored Food & Supplies: A Diary Of Real Prepping Usage After Losing Employment
I use dried cherries. It only takes a minute or two to rehydrate them and they're a nice variation on the oats.
What a great idea @doctorjohn I hadn't heard of doing that. Do you buy them like that or dry them yourself?
I buy them. There ar very few Fruit trees in Oklahoma
That's a shame! So you substitute the cherries for the oats or add them to the oats? If substituting that'd mean a lot of fructose right?
Add them! just a few. If you are cooking your oats, you can add the dried fruit before cooking wit just a bit of extra water.
Sounds delicious. Now you mention it, we do have packets of dried apricot that we suppliment meals with or eat alone. They're in a sealed plasic bag. Perhaps similar to what you prurchase.
