Eating From the Pantry Update

Yesterday's "Adventures in Kitchen Inventory" produced some unexpected results! Until I really took the time to go through my pantries, fridges and freezers, I had no idea how many meals I would be able to put together over the next couple weeks.

My pantries are well stocked with several packages of pasta, lots of rice, cereal, canned veggies, bbq sauce and more. My freezers had more ground beef, chicken breasts and pot roasts than I remember purchasing over the past couple months. Had I not gone through what we already had, much of that meat would have been wasted, and I hate throwing away food more than almost anything. I might as well go to the ATM, take out a couple hundred dollars, come home and shred it. Ugh...

Now that I'm organized and know what I have on hand, I'm going to get to my menu plan for the next couple weeks. I'll be back later with an update!
