cintyber used the last of the wedding leftovers with mac & cheese
Tuesday - blts
Wednesday - vegetarian red beans & rice with plantains & corn bread
Thursday - minestrone soup
Friday - cheesy pasta bake
Saturday - lentil soup?
It is that time of year where I start really thinking about cleaning out the fridge and freezer. The freezer I am emptying out more on general principle, but I like to completely empty and bleach down the fridge at least twice a year.
Plus I have been really enjoying working from what is in the pantry and coming up with meal plans buying a minimum of ingredients. And as an added bonus I find we eat more creative meals and less meat when I step out of autopilot, both of which are important to me.
What sort of things can you generally make out off your pantry? What are your pantry staples?
