A really boring account of me cleaning out the pantry

I gave you the warning.

As I am here cleaning out my pantry, it has occurred to me that I have never cleaned it out since we bought this house 8 years ago...

Microwave popcorn past its date may not pop as well but shouldn't kill Mr.Hair :)

Do you have rice? When I was a kid my mom would make chicken in Cream of Mushroom soup in a skillet over rice. It was pretty Nommy.

BTW I LOVE mustard and honey...just saying ;)

i was thinking that. either rice or make biscuits. I need to go and buy chicken lol. we are out of just about all meat. we have some hamburgers, a few steaks, turkey meatballs, and frozen shrimp. Oh, I guess I could use the turkey meatballs but i also have a jar of spaghetti sauce too.

UMMM Turkey meatballs would work :)

Cream of Mushroom soup, aka Lutheran Binder.

Chicken and rice (take chicken parts, place in baking dish with rice, dump over cream of mushroom soup, and maybe soem frozen veggies if you want, bake until done.)

You could put those croutons in there too, either whole or crumbled. They work well in a homestyle mac and cheese, too.

Congrats!

My favorite Cream of Mushroom soup meal is hamburger stroganoff. Here's a simple version: http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1626,147187-255204,00.html but you could always add a can of the mushrooms too.

Cream of mushroom soup is good over chicken baked in the oven...also there is an appetizer w/ bacon and bread that you can use it for. Very tastey. If interested, let me know and ill get recipes ( ... )

When you shop again, mustard/saurkraut/kiebasa/pirogie in a skillet (cook pirogie first, though) is good to use up the mustard, and mustard holds. (Actual "recipe" calls for dijon.)
I usually buy frozen pirogies on sale; it's a good quick dish, if you like the combination.

Use the honey (mix it with lemon juice for a tang, if desired) over pancakes/waffles. Make bread, using honey for at least part of the sugar.

Use up mushrooms with the soup in casseroles. The chicken in mushroom soup or chicken soup (use the canned mushrooms) is wonderful over rice, as others have mentioned.

Feed ramen noodles to husband; he bought them; he should eat them.
