We’ve done so well eating up pantry and freezer items. I am so pleased. I did give up and pack some of the odd items. I packed all but a few spices yesterday. If we follow my meal plan this week we’ll have 7 canned items to pack. Two cans of pumpkin and 5 of coconut milk. Not bad at all, especially when so much of the rest of the pantry is bare!
Available meals:
1-2 servings of grits with cheese and salsa
1 serving oatmeal
French toast with jam
Eggs on toast with salsa
Sausage egg sandwiches
Spinach salad
Shakshouka
Kielbasa, peppers and onions, rice
Freezer stir fry kit
Chicken tenders, roasted potatoes, green beans
6 servings various leftovers
Odd bits that aren’t planned but could or should be used:
1-2 servings of Lima beans
1/4 frozen chocolate pie
1/4 cup ranch dip
2 pounds russet potatoes
1 1/2 c Mexican rice
1 cup instant rice
1 weird vegan dip - I just have to admit it’s a loss and toss it.
A couple tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp sesame oil
I did stop at the grocery this morning for milk for my child, bread, fresh fruit and veg, and the kielbasa. I also picked up a free case of bottled water (reward for doing a store survey). It’s good timing, as we’ll be able to offer it to moving help.
I have two heat-and-eat meals left at work, along with a couple scoops of coffee and 4 coffee filters! That should work out really well for my 2.5 days left in that office.
