Eating out of the freezer and cupboards challenge - part two

Hi, I discovered the other day that my figures for my mini-challenge is 4/11 (not 5) of the intended freezer recipes used up. I do not know at this stage whether I can use up these 11 by the end of the month. There often seems something else I prefer. Anyway, will persevere and assess things at the end of the month.0

5/11 freezer stored (2017) batch cooked recipes used up this month (several of each).
Two small bottles of food flavorings purchased last Friday. Weekend shopping were just a few "yellow-sticker" salad items. Yesterday, could have got loads of reductions but felt disinterested.0 -

You’ve done well dannie, even if you dont reach your goal you’ve still reduced thingsweaving through the chaos...0 -
Thanks for your message phizzimum. Even though my mini-challenge is a slow process, food "supplies" are decreasing. For every one recipe, there were several portions made and when these are not being had, I am working upon using up other stuff (fridge, freezer or store cupboard).0
