How many of you keep inventory of what you have in your pantry and freezer?

I got an upright freezer this past Mother’s Day and I have to say it’s one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten! Silly, right? After years of battling a chest freezer and digging through it anytime I needed something getting a upright freezer was the best investment, and really they aren’t much more than a chest freezer. Our chest freezer was in our basement and while it served a purpose and I’m so thankful for it, nothing beats and upright freezer. Anytime I open it, it’s like I’m in the freezer section at the grocery store. I can see everything right in front of me and can easily access it without digging and pulling everything out. And when I get things on sale or things I like (like 70 calorie ice cream bars from Aldi which I’m obsessed with!) I can stock up and not feel like I don’t have room.

Whether you have a chest freezer, and upright freezer, or just use your refrigerator freezer keeping inventory of what you have helps a ton! No guessing or questioning if you have it. You just have to simply look at the list and know what you have on hand. I love to have freezer meals on hand! They are such a time save to just thaw and then toss in the slow cooker, Instant Pot or to even bake! Sometimes I don’t even need to worry about thawing. I love having a stash of freezer meals on hand! Many of them are my 5 Dinner and 1 Hour meals that I love to make extra and freeze!

Initially setting up a inventory list takes a little time, but it’s saves a ton of time in the long term. No guessing or wondering or buying something that I already have.

At first I just started with a freezer inventory sheet, but having a pantry inventory sheet is super helpful too, especially if you don’t have a lot of pantry space like myself. My dream is to have one of those walk in pantries. That is one thing we are lacking. I have food in several different areas so for me keeping a list of what we have on hand is essential.

Color code items

For the freezer inventory I go the extra set and color code it. I use pink for pork, green for chicken, black for beef, light blue for desserts of sweets. I also have one sheet for meats and stuff, and another sheet for frozen veggies. You don’t have to color code it but for me it makes it a little easier to look down the list. If I’m looking for pork, I just look for the pink. Plus it’s a good excuse to use my favorite Precise V5 pens!

You could laminate these which I have thought about and hand them on your freezer or door, put them on a clipboard, whatever works for you. I have a hanging basket that I currently use, but they may change. I also use cardstock to make it a little more durable, and I couldn’t resist punching a hole in the paper and making a bow just for a little added touch of cuteness.
