How To Make The Most Of What's In Your Fridge | Restaurant ...

A Barren Wasteland

We have all been there, haven?t we? Really hungry. But at the same time, aware of the fact that ordering pizza is just wrong, yet we get to the fridge and there is nothing nearly edible. Surely there must be a way around this?!

A Way To Cheat

You don?t need to be a master chef extraordinaire with a wide knowledge of Italian food recipes to make the most out of the ingredients currently inside your fridge. There are a number of avenues you can go down in order to make life easier for yourself.

• Websites ? There are a number of websites currently operating where you simply type in the ingredients you have in hand, the sort of dish you are looking to create and the time you wish to spend cooking, and voila! The site presents you with a recipe which you can easily print out before cooking it up. This can be a great way to find unusual Italian food recipes and add an exciting, random element to your cooking.

There are, of course, more simple ways to ensure you can always make a great tasting Italian food recipe.

Planning

Pretty much all of us are familiar with shopping lists. Perhaps, there are some of us who aren?t, but if you are anything like me who?s used to doing the grocery on a hungry stomach, you will have quickly learned your lesson from eating steak for the tenth night in a row!

Allow your shopping list to be your grocery plan for the entire week. Whether you are cooking up Italian food recipes or other great tasting dishes, find the food you are going to eat either online or in a book, or magazine, and add the ingredients you need to the list. Make sure you can always make the most of what is in your fridge by controlling what goes in there in the first place!

Keeping It Italian

There are a number of ingredients any fridge or food cupboard should contain in order to allow you to create Italian food recipes on a whim. Ensure that your weekly shopping list always consists of key Italian staples such as tomatoes, olives and garlic to make sure you get that authentic taste running through each and every dish.

Invest heavily in vegetables and pasta too, both of these are easy to cook in a small amount of time which is ideal for the end of a long day. Buy less meat as possible and only do so if you have a clear plan for when to eat them, otherwise it could be an expensive addition to the dustbin.

Ensure your fridge is always packed ready for making any Italian food recipes on any given day.
