Taking Stock of Freezer and Pantry

I'm feeling like the little boy with the fishes-- suddenly what I have on hand doesn't seem so bad. ..

This is Part 2 of the making it stretch post. The goal being to keep from going grocery shopping or spending any money until July 15th.

Here's the contents of useable food:

Freezer:
pizza rolls (6 or so)
1 pound frozen shrimp
green beans
chicken (lots)
2 pie shells
chicken nuggets
meatballs
sausage (Polish Keilbasa)
ground beef (2 pounds)
broccoli
peas
mini tacos (about 5)

Fridge:
Spaghetti (precooked)
jelly
cottage cheese
broccoli serving
mac n cheese leftovers
2 eggs
strawberries
apple juice
grapes
hot dogs
watermelon
bacon bits (real bacon)
corn (looks a little past its prime)
celery (might be partially frozen)
ham lunchmeat
pepperroni
popcorn shrimp (1 serving)
pears
apples
baby carrots
parmesean cheese
cinnamon rolls
crescent rolls
pizza dough
butter

pantry:
bread crumbs
pasta salad
Alfredo sauce
Gingerbread mix
rotini
penne
spaghetti
mac n cheese
beans
hominey
rice
cornbread
squeezy cheese
oatmeal
evaporated milk
condensed milk
dry milk
sugar
tea bags
single serving chip bags
Gatorade
Peanut butter

Sorry about the long list.... so that's it. No cheating. I have big plans. I didn't list things like chocolate chips or pudding and soup mix, or spices... although I have some of these things as well.

Tomorrow- oatmeal and cinnamon rolls for breakfast. We have some apple juice for the girls.. I plan on having coffee, even though I am (gasp!) out of creamer and milk. Yikes...
