It is true using a solar panel to recharge rechargeable batteries takes away use of my refrigerator. Due to this, I have the book, “Eating Off The Grid” by Denise Hansen. Amazon only has the old publication one and it's almost $45. You can a newer publication for $15.95 at the link below.

I would not be without this book. She is a dietitian with two degrees from Brigham Young University, THE university for all things food.

Every recipe in this 225 page book is made with nothing that has to be in a fridge. There is also information you would need to live off the grid in the kitchen, ways to keep food cool, ways to substitute one ingredient for another, and portions are made so there are not any, or many, leftovers. There is a way to make cheese, then pepper it with peppercorns so it stays good for days. There is a way to fast cook dried beans to save fuel.

Due to this book, I will not need a fridge. It is here:
