Egg noodles, dried vegetables, cheese and seasonings layered in a jar. Simmer with water in one saucepan for a creamy tomato pasta dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 C egg noodle pasta
  • 1/2 C Thrive zucchini
  • 1/2 C Thrive mushroom pieces
  • 1/4 C Thrive celery
  • 1 T Thrive chopped onions (fd)
  • 1/4 C Thrive green beans
  • 1/3 C Thrive chopped spinach
  • 1/4 C Thrive sweet corn
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp Thrive butter powder
  • 1 T Thrive chicken bouillon
  • 1/2 C Thrive tomato powder
  • 2 T heavy cream powder
  • 1/2 T basil
  • 1/2 T parsley
  • 1/3 C Thrive shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

  • Begin with the powders and seasonings in the jar, then add the heavier foods, and finish with the lighter ones.
  • Once the jars are full, drop in an oxygen absorber packet.

Notes

To cook: remove the oxygen packet. In a saucepan combine the jar contents with 3 1/2 cups water. Stir well and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, about 15 to 20 minutes, until the sauce thickens and the noodles are cooked. The sauce thickens more off the heat.
Safety: cream powder, butter powder and freeze-dried cheese can go rancid.
