I had lunch with a friend the other day that said they had just completed the Pantry wipeout game in their household. We were talking about how when we go to the stores (instead of our husbands) that we see things that sound good to try...and then we forget that we bought them. So, they had a rule that they only went to the store for the essentials (fresh goods, milk). She said it didn't take as long as you might imagine - less than a month. She also said it got pretty interesting towards the end in coming up with meals.
The Seaton Household has officially kicked off the Pantry Wipeout game and has also extended the game to the freezer, because we have created quite an assortment of frozen meals. Hubby is making lists of possible meals available in our pantry right now. We have realized that there will have to be an ingredient trip made to actually use some of the items, because we didn't think that far ahead when we bought the initial item. This should be an interesting game for our household for a couple reasons.....
1. I am trying to eat more healthier during my weight loss journey...the pantry goods are not good for that journey.
2. We have two very picky toddlers that only like to eat peanut butter sandwiches and snack on fruit and chocolate.
We will be monitoring our progress...update to follow when completed. Anyone up for desserts as there are quite a few cake and brownie mixes in the pantry?
