New Year's pantry frugality

[eleny]

This is the year I don't let the pantry and freezer harbor food that won't get used. So, I stick to my shopping list and try to keep it as short as possible. Every day I go into the freezer and pantry to use up what we have. Lately, I've just shopped for dairy, fresh fruit & veggies and some breads. I'm surprised that there is so much I can put together from the freezer for protein and the pantry for side dishes.

It's not a formal New year's resolution but it's sort of shaping up to be just that. I think I did way too much shopping from Thanksgiving through early January.
