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.
No-Bake Treats
Requiring nothing more than a mixing bowl and ingredients in your cabinets, these no-bake peanut butter balls make a power outage a little more enjoyable. They’ll keep kiddos happy and satisfy your sweet tooth, as well as provide a fun activity to lift moods.
Hummus
Filling and tasty, hummus is an easy, savory solution when you can’t cook. Mash the chickpeas with a fork instead of using a food processor. Serve the hummus with crackers or use it beef up sandwiches and vegetable wraps.
Peanut Butter Sandwich
It’s a classic for a reason: peanut butter sandwiches deliver a healthy dose of comfort, particularly during trying times. Stock up on peanut butter that doesn’t need to be refrigerated before the storm hits.
And you don’t need to be basic. Try sliced bananas and chocolate chips on your sandwich for some extra sweetness and flavor!
