Sierra Zero Waste

I have enjoyed this food challenge. I hope the resources will stay widely available! Thanks!

We just returned from a vacation to two National Parks.  We bought groceries to make our food during the trip. We did not finish all of the food on the trip so packed what we could in our carry ons to bring home and not waste.

I had to compost a cucumber that we didn’t get eaten in time and we’re headed out of town. 🤦‍♀️Sad to do it, but I am glad it was from my own garden and I am more aware then I would have been a month ago! 

I chopped up kale and swiss chard stems and added  some  to stir fry and the rest I've stored in a glass jar for snacking.

I cut up all lots of leftover veggies for stir fry which I've been eating for a few days--broccoli, sweet potatoes, bok choi, cabbage, string beans, kale, zucchini, carrots, peppers, 

I purchased 3 pounds of wormy honey crisp apples for an excellent price! I cut out all the bad spots, washed and quartered the apples, retained the skins and then dumped them into spiced up water  for delicious applesauce.
