canned vegetables will keep outside of the fridge...they are not as high in nutrition as fresh ones...but they are better than potatoes which are just high in starch...not something really great for baby---not bad but not good.





I'm currently prego right now too. I figure you want something filling but easy to prepare and not too much crap in there where it turns your stomach. Try making a little roast---get a small piece of beef, cut up some potatoes and carrots, add some peas or green beans, and cook until done. Add salt and pepper to taste.





Buying canned soups also might be a good option for you since you lack space. I eat a lot of the Cambpell's Chunky soup--fat free--it's filling and healthy. They've got a lot of varieties to choose from too. I also eat the generic tomato and cream soups....they taste the same....and they are easy on my stomach. Hope this helps.
root vegetables like potatoes last outside the fridge (in dark dry place or brown paper bag. bake nicely in microwave too





healthy coice soups are lower in salt





eat lots of fresh fruit its good for you and the baby - congrats
i would say just go and buy the little microwave soups
Being preg and cooking is rough! Can you tolerate chili? This is a white chicken chili and you don't have to refigerate anything but the chicken. I'm going to do my best but I do everything to taste because I'm single and I enjoy trying new things so please bear with me.





1 whole boneless skinless chicken breast cut into bite sized pieces


2 T oil (I use canola)


cook chicken in oil and drain any extra liquid


1 can navy beans, northern beans, or cannellini beans (your choice)


1 small can diced tomatoes


garlic, cumin, and onion powder to taste


heat through and enjoy





you could also do a chicken veg soup that uses canned vegs.


use the same chicken as above then add corn, green beans, and potatoes or a can of mixed vegs and season to taste





Good luck!
