Goals:
- Inventory cabinets, freezer(s), and fridge. I have done everything except for the fridge. I have started that as well but we are eating from that this weekend.
- Create a menu for the first 2 weeks. Done.
- Spend NO MORE than $20 a week or $80 a month on grocery products for January. Starting Monday! I am also including paper supplies like paper towels, plates, napkins, ziplocs, etc. The money will be spend for produce, milk, bread, etc.
- Decrease food waste. It makes me so mad to throw food away! This month, I will post what I have had to throw away at the end of each week as well. Hopefully it will be next to nothing!
- Use food that has been pushed to the bottom of my freezer and the back of my cabinets that I forgot about, which will in turn decrease waste! Boy, did I find things that I had totally forgotten about!
Coming up next will be my inventory list....I'm embarrassed!
Still counting,

Take the ground beef or taco meat and brown...put in bottom of casserole dish. Some type of vegetable on top of the meat (usually corn) then put mash potatoes on top of it. You have shephards pie. Some like to put cheese on top...I don't. Tell meif you use it.
ReplyDeleteI forgot all about shephard's pie...yum! That WILL be incorporated in my menu for sure. I like to add a few diced tomatoes to the ground beef when I do that...weird, I know! Thanks!
