Reader Organizing Tip
No more wasted food and an organized
refrigerator
Join our newsletter to be notified when the newest Reader Organizing
Tip is available.
To keep the refrigerator organized so less food is wasted, I rely on placing a
label and date on nearly everything that goes in the refrigerator. Leaf lettuce
is washed, bagged (including a damp paper towel) and labeled, "Lettuce
11/5/19" for example. I do this for all leftovers, especially. Actually we call
them “planned overs” at our house. Everyone can read what is in the
container. The date is noted so the oldest gets used first. I use a simple
piece of recycled paper (something someone sent that I've read already)
and use scotch tape to attach it. Remember to take the label off of the lids
before you wash the containers. I even write the date purchased on deli
items before storing them. Keep up the good tips…thanks!!
