I cleaned out the freezer on Saturday. I won't say there was no food waste. But everything discarded had been way outdated and/or was freezer burnt. Now instead of a jumble, I have an easy map to what's in there.
Top drawer left to right: reusable ice packs, nuts (plus my little jar of garlic), frozen mashed bananas, ice cream
Bottom drawer left to right: fruit, onion rings/french fries, vegetables
Now, when meal planning, I can see what needs to be used up before buying something. When I saw how much fruit I have, I decided that I need to have smoothies for breakfast every day this month! I'm sipping today's as I type. 😋
Are the frozen mashed bananas for your smoothies? What's your go-to recipe?
ReplyDeleteThe frozen mashed banana is for baked oatmeal. I can post that recipe. My smoothies are basically frozen fruit, milk, and a little honey. I used to put protein powder in it, and sub coconut milk for the milk. It's a pretty 'fluid' recipe. :) pardon the pun!
ReplyDeleteOh, and sometimes I put oatmeal in smoothies too!
DeleteOh! I did that to my freezer recently, too. It's so nice to know what is in there. This has happened before and I promised myself to keep it that way... but I really think I'll succeed this time. :)
