A Different Pantry Challenge

Clean out the kitchen pantry, fridge and freezer but make it fun by putting together all those newly discovered foods hiding on the back shelves for unusual but delightful dishes.  Have a contest with each family member creating an original recipe.  Have a small prize for the best recipe - perhaps the winner's favourite dessert or meal the next night. Your pantry will be clean and tidy and you won't be throwing away good money by wasting food. A side benefit is that it will get everyone interested in cooking from scratch - a real money saver and a good skill to have.

Then continue the theme by cleaning out a wardrobe, garage or garden shed and designate items for a yard sale.  Earmark the money earned for a family getaway and you’ll get more cooperation.
