The other day a freezer shelf fell and I had to take a bunch of stuff out so Johnny could put it back up and it lit a fire under me to see what is really in there! I looked in both our kitchen freezer and downstair's overflow freezer and made a list of all the meat sources I have on hand that I need to use up.
I'm going to hold myself to a Freezer Meat Challenge! I will not purchase any new meats until I use up this list and I hope I don't let it get to this point again, unless there's a big sale! I'll update each meat with a link to the recipe I used it in, until each item has been utilized!2 lb. boneless pork roast
corned beef brisket
1 lb. sea scallops
NC additions:

If you'd like to join my Freezer Meat Challenge, leave a comment below, or email christina at dinneratchristinas dot com and I'll link back to you! Just post a list of all the meats you currently have in your freezer and plans or goals for using them up. It'll be a great way to share ideas for utilizing those meat sources found within the frozen depths of freezers everywhere!
If you're going to participate, feel free to grab my challenge button, that Johnny so nicely made for me in about 5 minutes!
Wow! I wish our freezer were so well stocked. I think we're down to one package of flank steak and a ham bone. I don't want to shop until we're back from our trip this weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, that's a lot of meat!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your challenge - you can do it! :D
reading this made me clean out my freezer! My only meat or "meat" items are spicy black bean boca burgers, morningstar farms buffalo "chicken" wings, 3 chicken strips, crumbled "beef," a piece of salmon and a piece of tilapia.
ReplyDeletewoweee~ That IS a lot of meat! I can't wait to see what you do with the corned beef brisket, the sausages, and the scallops!
ReplyDeleteOh, and thanks so much for the gnocchi link, Christina! I truly appreciate it! I think I probably cooked it for too long, and there was too much moisture in the dough from all that cheese!
