Dinner from the Pantry

Everyday Menus

By , About.com Guide

Making dinner day after day can certainly become a challenge to anyone. You want to feed your family well, but there just isn't much time! And what if you haven't been to the grocery store for a few days, and there isn't much in the house?

You don't need to go to the drive-through window. You can pull together a great dinner using items from your well stocked pantry. And if you don't have a well stocked pantry, start now!

Dinner from the Pantry

  • Baked Turkey Sandwiches
    You can make these delicious sandwiches with any luncheon meat, or with none at all for a vegetarian version; pile on the cheese!
  • Keeper Cole Slaw
    Make a batch of this easy cole slaw and you'll be set for days.
  • Vanilla Orange Cookies
    This easy no-bake cookie is full of flavor and fun to make too. Tuck some into lunchboxes the rest of the week!
