Hi

I can’t say I really have a plan LOL. I buy only what is on sale and I

stockpile, so I usually have a variety of food items stored. I usually cook on

weekends for the entire week because I work full time and have a long commute.

Cooking something big on the weekend helps — a ham, a turkey, a pork roast. All

scraps are saved and then I make a stock on Saturday and use that as either

soup or to add flavor to mashed potatoes or pasta (saving milk for drinking).
