August 12 at 8:35 AMI hate to recommend a product that is plastic, but I store my lettuce in Rubbermaid Freshworks Produce Saver, and it makes a huge difference. I read about it in a Time magazine article about the best inventions of the year, and I decided to try it. It really works to keep lettuce fresher must longer.

August 10 at 8:58 AMBusy schedules seem to often get in the way of meal planning and the subsequent shopping. This will not work for everyone, but since I am retired, shopping more than once a week works for not planning too far ahead ... especially for perishables.

August 8 at 7:58 AMAnother way to prevent waste that I use is when my veggies are getting too ripe I cut them up and make a soup/stew/chili adding beans, chicken stock or vegetable stock. I do this about twice a month and freeze in small containers. I spice up with my favorite spices and I like it spicy!

August 8 at 7:49 AMOne other tip is if you make a large meal and can't eat it all before it goes bad is to put it in small containers and freeze it, taking it out the day you want to eat it.
