No electricity? No problem! From major snow storms to local blackouts, the inconvenience of a power outage doesn’t have to leave you feeling, well, powerless. These recipes will provide plenty of food to eat when power is out.

Bean Dip

As long as you replace fresh herbs with dried and mix by hand instead of using a food processor, this dip will take your cans of beans to a new level. You can scoop this up with tortilla chips or any veggies, like celery or peppers, you may have on hand, or spread it on bread for a tasty addition to your sandwich arsenal.

Chicken Tacos

Power outages call for kitchen creativity. Rather than cooking meat for tacos, open up some canned chicken. You can season it if you want, but to save time, dollop it onto your taco shells with some avocado, canned corn and tomatoes, if you have them, for a delicious Mexican-inspired meal.
