Since I have been meal planning more and consistently, I decided it may be helpful to do a total and accurate inventory of my freezers. This is something I have been avoiding for a long time. I sort of knew what was lurking in the depths of my deep freeze, but I wasn't sure...exactly.
So, today I took everything out of my deep freezer and my fridge freezer and created an inventory. I found some great stuff that I had forgotten was in there, and I could probably eat for months without going to the store. Yippee!
Even more exciting is the fact that I was able to organize the freezers a little better. All of the meat is in the deep freeze while all of the cheese is now in the fridge freezer. It's the little things, folks.
Here is a glimpse into my spread sheet awesomeness that is my new freezer inventory...
In the future, I hope to take an inventory of the rest of my pantry, also, so I can just do my meal planning from real time inventory lists. This is, of course, a pie in the sky wishful dream. :)
Do you know what is lurking in your freezer? Do you have a good way to keep inventory?
