Vishi's Actions
Cooking
Reimagine Leftovers
I will learn about how to repurpose my leftovers into new meals and then try it.
Cooking
Use the Edible Portion
I will learn about what food is still safe to eat if portions have gone bad and make sure to utilize the edible portions if I can.
Shopping
Buy Loose Produce and Shop the Bulk Bins
I will buy loose produce with a reusable bag or food from the bulk section to get the exact quantity I need.
Planning
Track My Wasted Food
I will track the food that my household of 4 throws out so I can learn what we're wasting and why.
Storage
Preserve food
I will try a new method of food preservation, such as canning, pickling, drying or making jam. I will try 3 preservation techniques.
Storage
Befriend My Freezer
I will freeze 20 leftover food items or meals for later. The freezer is my food-waste-reduction friend!
Cooking
Save the Peels
When life gives me lemons (or other citrus peels), I will use the rinds to make a nontoxic cleaner.
Cooking
Cook From Root to Leaf
I will try 10 root-to-leaf recipes, which utilize all parts of the vegetable, such as beet greens, carrot tops, and herb stems.
Shopping
Eat Before Shopping
I will resist impulse buys by eating a snack or meal before going grocery shopping.Those who grocery shop on an empty stomach spend 64% more than not-hungry shoppers.
Planning
Plant a Garden
I will plant an herb or vegetable garden at my home or community garden.
