Thoughts: So far, so good, but I am only one day in. I am grateful that I bought extra bananas and apples last week, a new container of milk, a case of yogurt on sale (Whole Foods gives a discount on cases), and had my husband pick up a dozen eggs from the CSA farm. When these items were purchased/picked up, I was not planning on not grocery shopping this week. However, because I have these items on hand, this week's breakfasts, lunches, and snacks will be easier to put together.
>> What tips do you have for eating out of the freezer and/or pantry?
This is a great way to live. We grocery shop once a month and fill the freezer with meat purchased at our local meat market which is stocked with grass fed beef and organic chicken. We live in the country. I raise my own organic chickens and eggs (my chickens are pets and we have never eaten one :D so we just eat the eggs) and I make my own bread. So we only buy milk at the dairy in the month. All else is purchased and stocked up. I HATE grocery shopping
ReplyDelete@Allyson - I would love to find a local meat market here that sells grass-fed meat. I can get chicken at our CSA Farm and I usually buy grass-fed and/or local meat at Whole Foods.
