What’s in My Freezer? How ChatGPT Helped Me Take Back Control

Let’s be honest – most of us have a drawer of doom in our freezer. It starts with good intentions and ends with half a bag of peas, mystery stew, and freezer-burnt baguettes. I decided to reclaim mine – with ChatGPT’s help.

Step 1: The Audit

I pulled everything out and made a list. Here’s where ChatGPT came in. I gave it the list and asked, "What meals can I make with these?" Within moments, it offered:

A slow cooker veg soup using frozen spinach, diced onions, and carrots.

Chicken fajitas with frozen peppers and thighs.

A pasta bake using leftover bolognese and frozen sweetcorn.

Step 2: The Plan

Using the suggestions, I planned the week ahead, freeing space and saving money.

Step 3: The Label Fix

ChatGPT even helped me write freezer labels. Just type:

"Create a printable label for frozen chicken thighs with defrost and use-by instructions."
