JOURNAL:
When was the last time I felt organised?
What's the best purchase I've made for the kitchen? Why?
TASK:
Refresh your fridge.
Organising your fridge in these few steps:
1. Empty your fridge
2. Map out your fridge, it’s pretty simple! Raw foods on the lowest shelf. Create a snack zone, a drink zone, a produce zone, and a meal prep zone.
3. Store food in reusable containers.
4. Get rid of excess packaging to save space, i.e remove packaging from individually packaged foods like yogurt, string cheese, and drinks.
5. Put new groceries towards the back of the fridge.
6. Add labels to different zones, especially useful for young children.
Top tip: Maintaining the inside of your fridge should become a regular chore like any other, and with the right additions like clear bins and reusable bags, it can become the focal point of your kitchen.
