Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 19, 2011

I have a grandmother who would never dream of buying containers to store leftovers or food for the freezer. She has always reused food containers, such as glass pickle jars or plastic cool-whip and sherbert containers, so I am not quite sure how or why I got started buying plastic food storage containers. It seemed a bit wasteful.

Homemade chicken stock is an easy way to stretch your grocery dollar, especially when you buy your whole chicken at your buy price. Stir well and place in freezer containers. Will last about one week in the refrigerator and 3 months in the freezer. JPG"> I reuse 8 or 24 oz glass jars to freeze the stock.

Utilize your freezer. Shop your freezer/pantry.
