To go along with our stocked pantry, here’s what I suggest keeping on hand in the fridge and freezer.
- Eggs
- Milk
- Butter
- Lemons/limes
- Celery
- Carrots
- Cheese (I try to keep sharp cheddar, parmesan, mozarella, fontina, and monterey Jack)
- Dijon mustard
- Fruit in the freezer for smoothies
My freezer is also usually stocked with things I’ve made doubles of and am saving for another time, especially pizza crust and meatloaf.
With these items added to the pantry list, you’ll always have ingredients to make things like:
- pizza
- pasta bake
- huevos ranchero (how do you even spell that?)
- cheese omelets (again with the spelling)
- grilled cheese
- pasta salad
What to eat Wednesday is a (kind of) weekly post focused on meal planning.
