Hi Reader
Let me ask you something.
How much food do you already have sitting in your pantry, freezer, or cupboards that you completely forgot about?
Come on, we’ve all done it!
We head to the grocery store with a list of ingredients for meals we’ve planned, meanwhile there’s perfectly good food sitting at home just waiting to be used.
Well, I’m here to challenge you to do things a little differently!
During our recent homesteading classes, we spent time talking about bulk food storage, pantry staples, and one of my favorite things — cooking from what you already have!
And that got me thinking. Why not share some of these resources with all of you?
Inside, you’ll work through what your family ACTUALLY eats, take a look at what you already have, and build a two-week meal plan around those ingredients.
Not the other way around!
The goal isn’t to fill your pantry out of fear or buy 50 pounds of something nobody likes.
It’s about being smart, wasting less, spending less, and staying OUT of the grocery store as much as possible!
I’ve also given my Pantry Staples page a much-needed overhaul, sharing some of the basics we keep stocked here on our Northern Michigan homestead.
Grab your free workbook and check out the updated page here:
I’m also sharing my Kitchen Revival Meal Template!
This is one of my favorite ways to get people thinking OUTSIDE the recipe box.
Got some leftover chicken? A little rice? A handful of vegetables? Some cheese?
BINGO. You’ve got the beginnings of dinner!
The printable helps you mix and match ingredients you already have to create a casserole without running to the grocery store for something you don’t need.
Both printables are FREE on my newly updated Pantry Staples page!
Welcome to my Blog- I’ll share with you what our Homestead looks like and how we raise 80% of our food, all organically, sustainably, naturally and beautifully.
I’m hoping to inspire you that you can do this as well! God has provided our family with all the things, but the big thing He has given us is the drive to get ‘er done! We didn’t start out with all this, we started very slow, replacing one thing at a time, learning one thing at a time.
