If you have a limited budget or limited refrigerator space, there are many reasons to include canning as much as possible. Whether you want to increase your vegetable intake, add protein, or increase your dietary nutrition, canned foods such as tomatoes, beans, and seafood are reasonably priced and delicious. Canned legumes and vegetables last longer, cook faster, and save time in the kitchen than fresh or frozen ones. In addition, canned fish like salmon and tuna help you eat more seafood on a budget. Cooking in cans is also a good taste. Recipes such as skillet ravioli lasagna, tuna, navy beans and dill salad can be relied upon when you want a delicious and healthy meal with pantry-friendly ingredients.
