Time to tackle those leftovers and forgotten condiments! Today is National Clean Out Your Fridge Day - make room for new meals and snacks!
Get ready to show your fridge some love on National Clean Out Your Fridge Day, which takes place every year on November 15! This day was created to remind us all of the importance of keeping our fridges clean and organized. It's also a great opportunity to use up any food that may be lingering in there for too long. So take out all those old leftovers, empty jars and expired condiments - it's time for a much needed deep clean!
Take out all of the food from your fridge, so that you can get a better look at what you have. This is also a great opportunity to take inventory of what you need and what you already have.
Give the shelves of your fridge a good scrubbing, making sure to remove any dirt or debris. This will help ensure that your food is stored in a safe and clean environment.
Once your shelves are clean, start organizing the food you've taken out. Group items together like fruits and vegetables, dairy products, condiments, etc.
Go through each item carefully and throw out anything that has expired or gone bad. It's best to be realistic about what you will actually use and not keep something just because it's still edible.
Now that your fridge is clean and organized, restock it with fresh groceries! Make sure to check expiration dates on items as you purchase them so that nothing goes bad in the near future.
When was the last time you checked what's inside your refrigerator? Chances are, you have some expired food hiding in there. Cleaning out your fridge on National Clean Out Your Fridge Day will save you money by minimizing waste, and help ensure that all your food is fresh and safe to eat.
Cleaning out your fridge before planning meals for the week makes it easier to make smart decisions about which ingredients mix best together and which items need to be used up first. Plus, taking inventory of your refrigerator helps prevent repeated trips to the grocery store because you’ll know exactly what you have on hand!
Nobody likes a messy fridge. Regularly cleaning out your fridge not only promotes healthy eating habits, but it also reduces the risk of spoilage due to outdated food. So don't wait - take advantage of this holiday and give your refrigerator some much needed TLC!
