After last week's shopping trip, in which I bought yet another loaf of bread, my hubby came back from the basement and said we already had three loaves down in our chest freezer. Now, I do like to keep extras of staples on hand, however the fact was, that both of our freezers were almost full, AND I wasn't up to speed with all that I had in them.
Chest freezers don't make it easy to see what all's inside. Even with baskets, things are all stacked on top of each other. So I decided to make an inventory list, so I could see at a glance, what I already had.
I created a simple freezer inventory printable, which you are welcome to print out.
I went through my chest freezer and filled out my list, and now I know at a glance what I have on hand.
You can keep it on your freezer, or wherever is convenient, to keep tabs on what is coming and going from the freezer.

Love it! I'm totally a list person too!

Did you know that you can use a dry erase marker on flat freezers like yours? I used to keep a list, but now I write right on the freezer and update it as I go along. You can see a picture of what I mean on our blog: http://www.dejongdreamhouse.com/2012/11/my-perfect-pantry-dream-home-edition.html

I needed this list because I had the same problem last week. We have ALOT of bread in our deep freezer!
