1/ So with Tom and mine& #39;s limited refrigerator stock thanks to moving in the middle of a public health crisis (wouldn& #39;t recommend it, for future reference) I& #39;m trying to think creatively about what we have in our pantry and so far I& #39;ve come up with the following: ...

2/
1. A vegetarian southwestern macaroni casserole bake (because we have a laughably small amount of meats)

2. Black bean soup

3. Possibly a baked gnocchi dish of some sort...oooooo, b/c I don& #39;t have diced tomatoes but I do have a fuckload of jarred pasta sauce. No spinach tho

3/ I do not do creative cooking you guys. I have my set dishes that I make on repeat and I call it a day. Unfortunately, for most of my staple dishes I make, I am missing one or two key ingredients that I& #39;m trying to order from the store.

4/ End story is this:

We have food. I am so grateful for this. We will be fine. So I don& #39;t want this thread to come off as ungrateful or complaining. I just miss that in the stress of this crisis, I can& #39;t turn to my comfort dishes b/c I don& #39;t have everything to make them.
