Before Your Next Grocery Run, Check These Three Spots
Grocery
Start with the fridge, the freezer and the pantry. Look for ingredients you can use this week and put them at the top of your meal plan before buying more. A partly used bag of frozen peas or an unopened can of tomatoes might be the start of dinner.
Build the shopping list around the gaps. If you already have rice and canned beans, you might only need vegetables and something to season them. Check quantities before adding extras for a special offer.
When you get home, put the older usable food in front. A quick inventory before each trip helps you remember what you bought and choose what to eat next.
