1. Prioritize Perishables
2. Allow Fridge Finds to Provide Meal (and baking) Inspiration
3. Discard, Use or Freeze/Transform
4. Only discard if actually BAD (dates are not the authority)
5. Don't forget the Fridge Door

Based on my Fridge Finds, I'm adding to my cooking list:

• Cheese Ends Baked Mac and Cheese: Cheddar Cheese, Cream Cheese, English Peas, Cauliflower
• Bolognese or Butter Chicken: Tomato Juice
• Mapo Tofu: Spicy Black Bean Paste
• Pistou: Tarragon and Parsley
• Creamy Polenta with Spring Fajita Veggies: Sautéed Asparagus, Spring Onion, and Arugula leftover from Veggie & Tofu Fajitas

Don't forget about the fridge door!

• Condiments
• Pickles
• Jams & Preserves

These items make great:

• dressings
• sauces
• marinades
• flavor bases for soups, braises and stews
