What Can I Make With Crushed Pineapple?

Filed under: Canned, Fruits, Main — Susanne @ 7:06 pm

I accidentally grabbed a can of crushed pineapple instead of pineapple chunks. I like to use the chunks on pizza or in fruit salad, but the crushed pineapple just doesn’t work with either one of those. Now that I’m stuck with a large can of the stuff, I’m wondering what I can make with it.

I thought about possibly throwing it into a smoothie. Has anyone tried that? Mixed with some coconut milk and yogurt it might make for a nice tropical treat. Any other ideas, suggestions or recipes that include crushed pineapple?

I look forward to reading your ideas in the comments below.

What Can I Make With Canned Tuna?

Filed under: Canned, Main, Seafood — Susanne @ 11:00 am

We like to make tuna salad sandwiches for lunch every once in a while. For the past few weeks we had been out of canned tuna, so I stocked up on the them and bought 10 cans. Then hubby came home from grocery shopping with quite a few more (he didn’t notice that I already bought some last week). So we now have a pantry full of canned tuna.

I usually drain the tuna well, mix it with a little mayo, a splash of pickle juice, some shopped pickles, salt and pepper. Then server it on bread or rolls.

What else can I make with canned tuna? I’d love to hear some of your favorite recipes.

What Can I Make With Corn

Filed under: Canned, Main, Vegetables — Susanne @ 10:17 am

The Halloween candy is about gone and now it is time to focus on Thanksgiving! I love this holiday because it is so traditional. The family meets, we eat, we relax, watch football and skim the papers for the big sales for the following day.

Thanksgiving dinner is planned a week before the big day with my mother calling everyone to tell them what they are expected to prepare and bring. My dish for the last three years has been a recipe I received from a coworker.It is simple to make and is obviously delicious or she wouldn’t ask for it three years in a row!

Corn bread Casserole

1 can (12 oz) creamed corn
1 can (12 oz) sweet corn, drained
1  8.5 oz. Jiffy Corn muffin mix
1 cup sour cream
1/2 stick melted butter
1 cup cheddar cheese (optional)

Heat oven to 350.  Mix all ingredients and place into a casserole dish. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove and layer with cheddar cheese. Return to oven until cheese is melted.

I double the recipe for my larger family. The double batch feeds at least 12 and more if there are various other side items to eat.

What Can I Make With Canned Pumpkin Pie Filling?

Filed under: Canned, Main, Vegetables — Susanne @ 10:28 am

Other than the obvious — make a pumpkin pie!

When I lived in Oregon, there was a place that made Pumpkin Pie Shakes. I wonder if they used the Pumpkin pie filling to make those? Any ideas? A pumpkin pie shake recipe would be wonderful!

I’ve also had pumpkin pie where they made it with cool whip and vanilla pudding instead of baking it in the oven.

Lay it on me. I’m craving some pumpkin pie filling. Help me or I’ll be eating it right out of the can! :)
