Food for One or Two.

I was sharing with a family member how we had delt with the issue of things going bad in the kitchen. Like the half loaf of mouldy bread, old hot dogs getting tossed out, and milk spoiling in the fridge.

It was time for me to re~evaluate some shopping habits afr er the kids left home. We did not eat cereal for breakfast and did not need a gallon of milk each week, it cut it back to half a gallon, then a quart and finally realized we do not drink milk! Light bulb moment and I was just using it occasionally in some baking. 

We put bread  and bread products in the freeze and just got out a slice or two as needed. It thawed on the counter as meal prep happened. 

I flash froze hot dogs, lunch meat etc. By placing them on a cookie sheet before bagging them up it was easy to get out one or two as needed this way. It also works for fruits and berries.

Cooking up six eggs to devil for one is what I have been doing.
