Once a month, at least, I go in and take everything out, wipe things down, and decide what needs to get used up.<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend I did just that. <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">I had frozen spinach, and about 3\/4 of a gallon size bag full of berries and other fruit chunks. I also had about 1\/2 a cup of chopped celery and celery leaves I had put into the freezer last week and a banana I had cut into chunks to freeze. I had plenty to make smoothies. I made one to drink while working on this project, and one to put into the fridge. Then I made four more to go into the freezer for later use. The celery and banana are gone, I was left with about one quart of liquified spinach that I put back into the freezer for my next round of smoothies, and two quarts of liquified fruit. This will make things super simple when I make my next batch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">I also know exactly what I have left in there and what I need to use up. A half a bag of corn that will last just fine. A serving of <a href=\"https:\/\/frugalrecipes.wordpress.com\/2025\/03\/12\/goulash\/\">goulash<\/a>, and another of the <a href=\"https:\/\/frugalrecipes.wordpress.com\/2025\/03\/17\/corned-beef-slow-cooker-meal\/\">corned beef meal<\/a>. I also have a block of cream cheese, a partial small block of sharp cheddar, and four ounces of tomato paste.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>It is important to know what is in your freezer so you know how you can cut corners on your grocery shopping bill. Why buy a whole new package of cheese when you have bits and pieces in the freezer? Is there a way you can cut the grocery bill next week with what you have in your freezer. Maybe if you just buy a pound of meat, you already have enough items leftover from previous meals and on your shelves to make a whole new meal less expensively. Give it a try. Let us know how it goes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-large-font-size\">~ Shannon<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a very small freezer on my dorm size refrigerator \u2013 for those that don\u2019t know, I rent a room in a house.
