On to Step 3!!!

Step #3-
Take all of the ingredients from your menu plan and multiply them to know how much you need for 3 months. 

   If you created a 2-week menu plan, multiply each ingredient by 6 and record the total under “Amounts” on your  “Three Month Food Storage Plan” form

Attached is a measurement conversion chart to help you figure out how much you need for 3 months

 Continue saving money or shopping for sales.

Next week we will proceed to step #4. 

In the meantime, remember that preparedness comes in 2 parts- physical and spiritual.  As part of your spiritual preparedness, give the Savior the gift of accepting the challenge to read 5 pages of  Scripture each day.
