We’re up to the kitchen and we’re getting hungry! Who has the time or place to prepare a decent meal? Stock up on some of these suggestions so that you’ll have a variety of foods to offer hungry family members.
Large size pasta — I use the big ziti noodles. They are crumb-less, filling, and eaten by even finicky eaters. If a noodle gets stuck to someone’s hands or clothes, you’ll see it. If the kitchen is already off limits, you can plug a portable electric burner into any outlet.
Frozen pita sandwiches — Pitas make significantly fewer crumbs than bread. Prepare a whole bunch with the filling of your choice (cheese, tuna, peanut butter, etc.), double wrap, and freeze. At mealtime, set up a sandwich toaster in your designated chometzdig spot. Carefully unwrap the frozen pita sandwiches, warm them, and serve.
Processed/canned/instant/frozen foods — Try adding some of these to your menu: canned veggies, baked beans, pickles, fruit cocktail, frozen fries, hot dogs (fleishig and pareve), instant mashed potatoes, instant meals in a cup, yogurts, cheeses, corn-based cereals, and rice cake sandwiches.
