After the holidays is always my "use up the freezer food" time. Good for my budget, good for making room in my freezers too! I always get a kick of seeing how many days worth of meals I can make without having to go to the grocery store.
Today I found a big package of stew meat to thaw out (about 4 lbs, bought on markdown and tossed into the freezer) Its just me and my husband here for dinner. I have a few odds n ends veggies like carrots, potatoes etc around to use up, so tonights dinner will be beef stew. I plan on saving a portion of that meat to make a beef barley soup in the next day or two.
