Ingredients
My driving need for creating this method is based in growing up food insecure, as do so many people in our country. It was important to me that at it's core this process not only made sense for the people growing up today like I did, but for it to make practical financial "cents".
I wanted to keep the ingredient list short, shelf stable and above all affordable, which is why this method and it's recipes were designed using generic brands or the least expensive brands available.
