Filed Under: Dinner, Grilling June 3, 2024

Do you have an ever growing stash of seasoning packets like Ranch Seasoning Packets, gravy mix, saison, Au Jus, and Lipton Soup Mix? I feel you, each week I use my FREE Stick to Your Budget Checklist to shop my pantry, fridge, and freezer and make a meal plan, but unfortunately, these packets kept getting overlooked! To help us all out, I’ve put together a list of 7 recipes that will put this overstock to good use!
