Freezer Meal Planner - Thursday 1st January 2015
Approximate $ Savings: $100
I have a freezer full of ready meals and ingredients but haven't found an inventory system that worked for me. I now stick a blank monthly calendar on the fridge for meal planning. Then I bought a sheet of blank whiteboard magnet and cut it into small labels. When I batch up meals for the freezer or buy meat etc. I write it on one of the labels and put them on the side of the fridge. When I meal plan I then just stick these to the day I want. Once used the label can be wiped clean for another use. All the little magnet labels on the side of the fridge are a great visual of how much food there is to eat in the freezer making me more likely to use things up. If you have a freezer with shelves you could stick these magnets in layers to show which shelf it is on.
