Grocery brag (week 11)... the work in progress in 2012

[2010ontest]

does cheese freeze well i have never tried it but always wondered as we do not go through alot but it would be nice to buy it when it is on a good sale

I don't freeze cheese often, and I do like $avvy$hopper, I shred it when I freeze it.

Here we are cheese lovers!!! And I have 2 fridges, so all that cheese go in my fridge and will be used in 3-4 weeks. I prefered to keep my cheese in the refrigerator.

For who love math part, the quantity of cheese I've buy is 10.4kg and this is only 57g per person per day in one month of 30 days. One portion of dairy product (Canada's food guide) is 50g.

I love your smart-brags, ontest...the following being why...you not only think of money spent/saved, how much you have stocked and for how long it will last, you even have nutritional requirements all figured out too! Awesome !

I was going to redeem for groceries at Pharmaprix too this weekend...except my son has the Optimum card and he's gone for a few days .

awesome TIP!!!!

I shred my cheeses first and then freeze them. It's wonderful to have on hand - easy to add to any dish (scrambled eggs, chilis, pasta sauces, quiche et al...right from frozen). When I froze it in a brick, it was all crumbly and too moist once thawed and doesn't slice well at all. So my tip is shred and freeze!
