Freezer Challenge Week 4

I'm still really enjoying our freezer challenge, and will try something similar once I get to our vacation house on Friday & inventory our freezer & pantry there. I was happy to move out a bunch of stuff, and there is definitely more room in our freezer. (Although, M bought two giant bags of cranberries for cranberry muffins, so new things did get added. ;-))

Freezer challenge items for next week:

1. 2 containers of sauce with beef tips
2. Another container of chicken soup - this was a fail because I'm the only one who likes this type of soup, and this one has a ton of dairy, which bothers my stomach. Trying to think of what to do with it. 
3. Gravy
4. Stuffing
5. Turkey - we had a turkey in the fridge that needed to be used first, so we went with this instead.

We also were able to use up a few bonus items:

• A container of taco meat 
• A bag of tortillas
• Lasagna
• A container of tortilla soup
• A small package of ham 

I have just a couple of items for the week, as I'm trying to be realistic about what we will eat before we leave. 

• 12 freezer burritos
• Lubia polo (Persian beef & rice dish)

And, here's a menu that should use up most items:

• Saturday - lasagna
• Sunday - Lubia polo
• Monday - Freezer burritos with guac
• Tuesday - leftover lasagna
• Wednesday - leftover lubia polo
• Thursday - freezer burritos w/guac
• Friday - we will be out of town, but it will definitely be a freezer meal from our vacation house

I will still try to get one of the kids to eat the soup that's left today, but that's a maybe for completing the challenge. Otherwise, I feel good about the bonus items & the planned things we used. What about you? Are you trying to use up anything in your freezer? How are you doing with your freezer challenge?
