You can fit a whole meal in that jar! 😉

Hi Achternaam,

Have you looked at the label of that store-bought soup, chili, or stew lately? Most of them contain a lot more ingredients than you might think, ingredients beyond just meat and vegetables. You’ll also see less-savory ingredients like soy, modified food starch, preservatives, and flavor enhancers–not exactly something you want swimming around in your family’s dinner.

With home canning, however, you can do the work upfront and make jars of even better meals that you can pull off the shelf and heat up anytime!

Here’s how to get started:

You can adapt your soup recipe to make it safe for canning! Find the scoop on canning soup here.

You can also make homemade chili with meat AND beans, which is perfect for cooler weather or anytime you’d like a warm, comforting meal. Get the recipe for canning homemade chili here.

Let’s not leave that stew out! Learn how to make beef stew for canning here.

I hope these help your mealtimes get faster (and healthier),
Sharon
