Christy's Actions
Storage
Make Smoothies
I will freeze fruits and veggies, such as overripe bananas or avocados, to use later in smoothies.
Storage
Organize My Refrigerator
I will organize my refrigerator to maximize shelf life based on the temperature and humidity of different spots.
Cooking
Set a Timer
I will set a timer to keep me on track with kitchen tasks and cooking and baking times so that I don't ruin food.
Storage
Rotate My Foods
When I restock my fridge or pantry, I will put new items in the back and bring older items to the front to be used first.
Storage
Be Smart About Food Labels
I will learn about food labels and not throw food out just based on the date on the package, but instead check the smell and color to see if it has gone bad.

Reflection QuestionStorage Rotate My FoodsHow has rotating your foods changed your awareness of what you have on hand? Have you changed any of your shopping habits because of this practice?
Christy DePasquale 8/03/2022 9:37 AMBy rotating food, I am more excited to try new things and will increase my chances of not wasting food. If I eat the same thing everyday, I am afraid I won't finish all of the food. I will get bored of the food/flavors too quickly. -
Reflection QuestionCooking Set a TimerHow has using a timer changed your kitchen routine?
Christy DePasquale 8/01/2022 1:00 PMI eat food as close to the time the timer ends. If I wait too long, the food will get cold and I have to heat it up.
