I will add organics recycling collection bins to all areas of the house where organics are generated, such as the bathroom.

I will create an "Eat First" area in my fridge to prioritize food that needs to be used right away for my household of 1.

I will store food and organize my fridge based on best practices to prevent food from spoiling before it is used.

I will store vegetable scraps in my freezer and use them to make veggie stock. I will make 3 batches.

I will rescue limp produce like leafy greens or carrots by soaking them in cold water or using them in recipes where appearance doesn't matter.

I will intentionally buy ugly produce at the grocery store, farmers market, or sign up for an ugly produce CSA box.

I will set aside time to prepare 5 meals in advance.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu of meals and ingredients for my household of 1.
