Weekly Theme #1: Use-It-Up!

view profile

amanky is a group moderator amanky says:

ok, free for all... feel no obligation to participate, but I thought it might be fun to toss out a bit of a theme each week so you can run with it all week, or choose a day and go for it! (or just sit back and enjoy the view!?)

we'll kick it off with a bit of inspiration from a fellow flickrite and a blog!

Use-It-Up!

forget grabbing loads of new ingredients... get creative with what you've got, finish off the stuff in the freezer, fridge, cupboards, etc.

please tag your shots:

Use-It-Up!

[note: I'm doing this at Mr Bento Porn as well so we can enjoy across systems!]

please know... this will be especially difficult for me, as I just did some major grocery shopping on Saturday... so i may struggle to compose a Use-It-Up! meal vs. showing off my new goodies!

I like this idea! Last year I realized that I had so many boxes of pasta in my cupboard, some open and some not. I did an entire week of pasta lunches to try to use some of it up. I have so much food at home it's scary. I can barely cram anything else in my freezer and fridge.

This is a great idea - most of my lunches involve using something from the previous night's dinner because I'm too lazy to cook separate things for lunch.

I'd like to have a theme week about traditional, local foods - I can think of countless Italian and Japanese themed lunches but although I try to use local ingredients I rarely pack things that are discernably British - would anyone else be up for showing off their local cuisine in another week?

Local cuisine sounds good. I foresee lunches full of bagels & lox and pizza for me!

@vagueknitting: fear not... I'll be doing different themes, each week... i simply went with something that wouldn't require any "extras" for everyone to get going...
next week will most likely fit the VDay vein, and then we can go from there...

shall we open a theme suggestion thread?

Yesterday's lunch: Angel Hair from Sunday night, Salad left over from Taco Salad Saturday. I've had the BabyBel for a while. (I've been trying to post the photo to the group, but the drop down box isn't cooperating with me today!)
