I made a big pot of bean and ham soup a couple of days ago, using the packet of ham bouillon that came in the bag of beans and about a pound of roast ham out of the freezer. (I think it's better when made with smoked neckbones, but this was really good and it was easier) I should have added a dried chipotle pepper to give it some smoke and a little heat.
Today I made a wok full of hash with hamburger meat, onions, brown rice, and a grated small green pumpkin. (I think it's still hash if you use rice instead of potatoes) It's seasoned with beef bouillon, garlic powder, black pepper, and dried Italian herbs. The hamburger meat was frozen, so I put the package in the rice cooker on top of the rice after the rice was done and put the lid back on. It quickly thawed out perfectly.
We've got enough food for a few days, but next on the list will be chili.
