One of the things I’m working on as I organize my kitchen is my pantry. As I peered into my dark and oh-so-small-and-overcrowded pantry, I assessed the various storage needs screaming for attention. One of which was a stack (I say “stack” loosely) of bags of various dried beans. As the stack spilled to the left and slipped to the right while I tried to straighten it, I mentally jotted that down on my “to be organized” list, along with the storage solution I had in mind.

Ziploc storage containers.

Well, technically they were store brand containers. I found some that would hold a pound of beans and stack nicely. I think they were five for three bucks. I got home and immediately switched all my beans over and stacked them into my pantry, all nice and neat like.

The organizing angels sang.

Imagine what they’d do if I got the label maker I want. icon wink WFMW   Storing Dry Beans

This week, while Shannon in Africa, WFMW is hosted by Melanie at “Don’t Try This At Home.”

We LOVE Ziploc bags. We use them for everything! Glad your pantry is a happier, more organized place. :)

I happen to store mine in reused Spaghetti jars. 28 oz. or larger. I also quiz the kids on identifying what kind of bean is in what jar. So it becomes a learning experience as well. They can only identify balck beans so far.

Hey! How are you all feeling? You are missed and loved!

I love your comments! They're like the cream in my coffee.
