Clean Out the Fridge

An organized refrigerator is a thing of beauty.  But it is a task that is often overlooked.  Get that fridge ready for leftover baked goods and cold weather stews with a few quick steps.

1.  Get Rid of Expired Food!  Grab a big trash bag and start dumping.   This is a quick way to make a huge impact on your fridge.  *Expert tip – fill the sink with hot soapy water to have it ready to accept those food storage containers.

2.  Group Food According to Categories!  You can arrange your food by meal or by type like it is found in the store, whichever works best for your family.  *Expert tip – use clear, labeled bins to keep groups together.  This prevents chaos and encourages everyone in the family to maintain the system.

 3.  Wipe Down the Shelves!  It’s a simple step, but one that will make a huge difference.  Clean shelves will showcase all your hard work.  *Expert tip – schedule your fridge clean out for the day before you shop for groceries.  Your fridge will be easier to clean out and then ready for the new groceries.
