Having to live off non-perishable foods is not exactly a walk in the park. But, if ever it comes to that and there is an emergency situation where people are asked to stay in their homes, we came up with a few goodies to help you through rough times.
Check out these three recipes made entirely from non-perishable food products!

Salt and pepper to taste
Recipe:
Start by combining all ingredients for the sauce in a large pot (everything listed above except the gnocchi). Put on stove over medium heat.
