Some of the vegetables on the list can last for more than one week like carrots, potatoes, and ginger. So, don't worry if you can't use them all. For meat, if you get a lot, just freeze whatever you didn't use. The goal is to use all the frozen meat up in one month, not one week.

Well, if you liked any of the recipes, just try making one and see what happens! Be creative and add whatever you have in your fridge into dishes.
