Installment number two: Part of a series of pantry stocking mixes to fill out the whole pantry. I call Zen prepping “Shopping from within” These mixes are designed to create food security and help answer the question. What is there to eat?
Cookie and brownie mixes probably rank at the top of the convenience-food favorites list. A typical package at the store, which yields about a dozen brownies, costs about $2.80. The following mix costs about $2.06 and makes enough for two batches of one dozen brownies or six dozen cookies.

Love the idea of having a brownie mix on hand at all times…even better that it is homemade versus store bought! Can’t wait to make this part of my pantry staple!
I really like this! I’m so tired of having so many boxes of this and that cluttering up the pantry. I like having control of the ingredients, too! Debra
