Whether you love to cook or only do it out of necessity so that you don’t starve, all cooks face similar challenges. Coming up with tasty recipes, using up the ingredients you have on hand before they spoil, and getting everything you need in one trip to the store. Did you know that Stockpile free easy online inventory solution can help improve your culinary efforts?
How many times have you stood in the store without the list you so carefully prepared? You’re stuck standing in the middle of the aisle trying to remember whether or not you needed a certain spice or if you have eggs at home. Invariably, you either leave the store without a necessary ingredient or you get home only to realize that you bought more of something you already had on hand. For me, it’s chocolate pudding. For some reason I always think we need chocolate pudding and then I get home only to find there’s no room in the cabinet because we already have an excess of pudding. There are several list apps out there that can help you get to the store with your list. If you don’t have a good one already, check out our previous post for some great ideas. If you’re an organized individual that may just do the trick, but what do you do when inspiration strikes while you’re at the store? You see that avocados are on special and decide that fresh guacamole sounds delicious. Now you’re scratching your head trying to remember whether you still have garlic and cayenne pepper at home or if you should pick some up. If you used Stockpile to track your spices you could easily look it up.
Food items don’t keep forever. How often have you opened the pantry and pulled out an ingredient that was past its prime? Not only have you wasted money, you missed the opportunity to enjoy a meal that you planned to prepare. Chances are this situation occurred because you forgot that you even had the item in the cabinet. Even in the biggest kitchen, shelves and cupboards become crowded. Things get shuffled to the back and overlooked. By creating locations for your pantry, spice rack, freezer, fridge, etc you can easily track the food that you’ve purchased. Running periodic reports will let you know that you bought a special seasoning or other ingredient and remind you that you need to use it.
