Sometimes a meal in a jar can make life easier! Giving the gift of food mixes in a jar can be budget friendly for the gift-giver and a time-saving blessing for the giftee!
North Dakota State University Extension has lots of ideas for any occasion. They can be added to gift baskets for a holiday auction. Recipes include a chili mix, cornbread mix, a cookie mix and a soup mix. The recipes for preparing the mixes are already in the publication, just cut and attach to the jar.
Another resource is from the University of Maine Cooperative Extension. This publication includes soup mixes, muffin and cookie mixes, granola and more.
