+=====  Goal  =====
+Lets face it, hackers and geeks are not the healthiest of eaters. To compound matters, hackerspaces don't typically have well-furnished kitchens. Or kitchens at all for that matter. This project looks to compile a list of foods that keep well over long periods of time, are easy to prepare, **TASTE GOOD**, and are healthy or at least not totally bad for you.
+==== Methods of Preparation ====
+  *  Steaming (Rice Cooker)
+  *  Microwave (MAY CAUSE CANCER)
+  *  Boiling (MAY CAUSE BURNS)
+  *  Crock Pot (My favorite)
+  *  Pressure Cooker (MAY EXPLODE)
+  *  Self-packaged
+==== Ingredients ====
+  *  Fruits
+  *  Vegetables
+  *  Cereals
+  *  Grains (gluten free)
+  *  Beans
+  *  Other
+==== Ready to Eat Meals([[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retort_pouch|Retort pouches,]]non-MREs) ====
+  *  Ashoka
+    *  Various Indian Vegetarian Meals

+==== Recipes ====
+====== Tabouli ======
+/3 C boiling water
+/3 C Bulgar
+Pinch of Salt (I prefer Kosher)
+/3 C Lemon Juice
+/3 - 1/2 C Olive Oil
+Chopped Onions and Tomatoes to taste ( you can get onions pre chopped at Fresh and Easy if you cant handle a knife, same with Tomatoes)
+tsp cinnamon (doesn't have to be exact)
+Any fresh herbs you like, chopped or shredded by hand. I recommend parsley and a hit of mint. Milder herbs seem to work best, but thats merely preference
+Boil water, put into a bowl, or boil in a bowl
+Add bulgar, cover with plastic wrap, let sit for 20 minutes
+Mix in ingredients or put the bulgar into another bowl and mix the ingredients there if you're anal about these things
+Chill for an hour then serve
+====== Candied Bacon ======
+  * 1 pound sliced bacon
+  * 1 cup packed brown sugar (more as needed)
+Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place a cooling rack on top of the pan. Coat assembly lightly with cooking spray.
+If desired, slice bacon into manageable bite-size pieces.
+Take each piece or strip and cover one side liberally with brown sugar, packing a layer approximately 2 mm thick on top.
+Place bacon on top of the lubricated rack in a single layer, sugar side up.
+Bake until bacon is cooked and sugar is all nice and bubbly, 14-16 minutes for bite-sized pieces, 15-20 minutes for full strips.
+**Please note: the melted candy coating is very hot and sticky!**
+It will glue itself to you and burn the hell out of your skin if you are not careful!
+Remove bacon from oven, and allow to cool thoroughly. May be enjoyed anytime, anywhere, for any reason.
