Well, I did it. I went through both freezers and wrote everything down. Then I categorized and typed it up. Actually, extremely helpful! And, I only had to throw a couple things away. Not bad really. Have no idea why I would even want to do that. Read about it here. I’m thinking of creating a better “Household Binder” for 2010. This list would definitely have a prominent place in it. The key being to update the list as I add and take things out of the freezer.
Here’s what I inventoried yesterday:
Meat:
1 pack bratwurst
3 2cup bags of chopped, cooked chicken
2 1 lb. bags Italian sausage
1 1 lb. bag cooked ground beef
2 packs hotdogs
1 pot roast
7 packs of bacon
2 packs of sausage links
3 mini-packs of sausage patties
3 packs little smokies
Cooked and Frozen:
2 qt containers taco soup
2 pt containers taco soup
2 pt containers gravy
1 qt bag BBQ pork
1 pan Cheese, Broccoli, Rice and Turkey
Waffle Sticks
Pancakes – going to my brother’s (non-dairy)
Quick Prep:
Sister Schuberts rolls
2 frozen pizzas – full size
1 frozen pizza – single serving
1 box chicken nubggets
½ box popcorn shrimp – Maggie ate tonight
Frozen Fruit/Veggies:
1 bag broccoli
2 bags onions
1 bag peas
1 bag mixed veggies
2 bags kernel corn
2 bags cranberries
2 pints blueberries
Misc:
Phyllo dough
½ bag ice
1 ½ lb shredded Mexican cheese
6 1 cup bags Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese
2 cups Colby Jack cheese
½ loaf white bread
Ice cream
1 bag homestyle rolls
Today I added some stuff to it. I had to use up the rest of the turkey from dinner on Saturday and this bag of apples that I had in the pantry before they went bad. So we now have two gallon and one quart bags of Turkey and Noodles as well as four small German Apple Cakes. I made double batch of the apple cake and then split it into four smaller pans rather than two 9×13. That way, I can pull out one pan, let it thaw, slap some cream cheese icing and YUMMY!
I plan on listing everything in the pantry when my sweetie and I return from our couple’s weekend.
Happy New Year everyone!
Wow! I need to do this, too!
