First Great Pantry Challenge of 2009
Update!

I am getting a little excited about this people! I think it will be quite fun! I plan on posting little blurbs about my failures and successes. So far, lots of successes (even though it hasn't started yet!!!)! 2 half gallons of milk, 1 dozen farm fresh eggs, 1 loaf of honey wheat bread, and 2 half gallons of apple cider are on their way from South Mountain Creamery!! I have a large package of chicken breasts I purchased on Monday at a GREAT price and they have been frozen individually to assist with dinner from the pantry plans. I also have a pound of ground beef, three-quarters pound of ground pork, a pound of frozen already cooked shrimp, a pound of frozen ready-to-peel, de-veined shrimp all ready to go!!!!

There is lots of pasta, rice, and quinoa. Black beans, great northern beans, re-fried beans. Pasta in many shapes and sizes! Rice, quinoa, and oats! Plenty of ingredients to make granola when I run out of cereal, carnation instant breakfast, and english muffins from Wolferman's. So, things are looking pretty good for the pantry challenge. There is also a plentiful amount of frozen vegetables and potatoes: Ore-Ida Ready-Mash in two flavors, Sour-cream and chive baked potatoes, creamed spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, and green bean casserole.

I've also taken to purchasing soup from Soupergirl so that is an added bonus for my lunches!

I'm getting excited peoples. In about two weeks, Im going to start reaching out for some help. Be prepared.
