Eat From the Pantry Challenge
Two of my New Year’s resolutions are to cook more often and to post more often on this blog, which already dovetail pretty nicely. Something that I hope is going to help with both is the Eat From the Pantry Challenge. I’ve been reading Money Saving Mom for a while and have gotten a lot of good tips on using coupons, as well as inspiration for trying to keep a well-stocked pantry and freezer. So I’m going to give this a try.
My goals for this challenge are as follows:
- To only buy produce and eggs/dairy for the month of January – everything else that Jason and I eat at home will come from the pantry, refrigerator, or freezer. Or the 25-pound bag of rice I have in the liquor cabinet.
- To try out at least five new recipes – and post about them!
- To spend significantly less this month on groceries than we usually do.
So far we are three days into January (Happy New Year!) and there have been no emergency trips to the store for diced tomatoes…
