at the moment, my fridge freezer and pantry are all prety much empty, we havent done a decent shop for a while, but when we do, ouch will it hurt the pockett!
been eating whats in them already so they empty out! weve got a side by side fridge, that holds alot, weve got 2 dogs that eat all our scraps and leftovers, so the only waste is what i buy and compleatly forget about and wouldnt even risk the dogs having!
Well rocket (the spicy lettuce kind) was on special at FoodWorks today, as were pears... so I am re-creating my favourite local restaurant meal at home tonight because we have the rest already in the pantry/fridge: rocket salad with roasted walnuts, thinly sliced pear and shaved parmasan, served with a brown sugar Balsamic glaze, whole tinned baby beetroots.... and fish fingers!!! LOL because they have been in the freezer for a while and needed using up! Not afraid to mix high-brow and low-brow foods around here! LOL Lucky my 6yo DS loves rocket!
ETA: just posted a photo on my Facebook page!

Nah not really. I like my fridge to be full of lovely, fresh produce and we shop regularly and replace most things we use.
My pantry is... a lost cause though. I'm a bit of a bulk, impulse buyer. Which means I buy lots of stuff that sometimes sits there until I can't remember why I bought it...
Well my fridge generally contains these things:
Sauces - tom, soy, worch, chilli
Butter, Eggs (home grown) Milk, cheese, yoghurt
Condiments - Jam, PB, garlic, ginger, chutney
Veges and fruit - salad mix, carrots, cabbage, capsicum, apples, zuchini, shallots, corn
And at the moment has beetroot (tinned), leftover fritters and lasagne.
I shop weekly or fortnightly as I impulse buy lots if I got to the shop everyday, costs me heaps more.
Bath, your fish fingers meal sounds classy as! And delicious!
I ate out our fridge today, made a huge pot of lentil and vegie soup, ladled it into some containers, and dished it out around the neighbourhood. Got 8 limes, 3 onions, 2 bananas and a loaf of raisin bread in return
