We've challenged ourselves to eat everything in the fridge, and everything in the pantry before stocking up again, because this is getting ridiculous:
I always envy people who are able shop and eat one week at a time and use every single thing they buy and make, so maybe this is our chance to use it all up and start from scratch. Good luck to us.
i do the same things my friends... only i do it when i am broke and need to skip the market for a week!! allrecipes.com has a thing where you can type in all the ingredients you have and it will spit out recipes you can use!! good luck!
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge - you'll love it! I have recently become a minimalist. My mom was making fun of my bare cabinets and refrigerator. Nothing goes to waste!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck....I feel your pain. I could make a fort of canned food at our house.
ReplyDeleteOur cupboard resembles the Y2K bunker my university roommate's mother had. I could ride out the next big flood (I live in Winnipeg) with my tins of diced tomatoes. And then I could build a raft with the empty cans. I convinced my husband to do groceries last night getting only the perishables that we needed for the week. The bill was about 1/2 of usual AND I put together a menu for the week. I feel pretty damn smug. Good luck with your pantry emptying.
ReplyDeleteI have to do this so often, you can't imagine! lol I know when I've just cleaned out the fridge and can't get anything in and get foot bombs that it's time for another challenge.
