LOVE FOOD CHALLENGE:
Do one thing differently and save money
Do at least one thing differently to avoid food waste and you’ll notice a difference to your weekly food bill. Tick the circle (or circles) and make the pledge to reduce your food waste. You will save money, cut food waste and ensure a healthier environment for you and your family to enjoy.
Make sure you check your cupboards and fridge, and make a shopping list before you go shopping. That will make it much easier to avoid those random impulse purchases.
Freezing food is literally like hitting a PAUSE button and you can freeze almost anything before it ruins!
Airtight containers for salads and herbs; the fridge for fruit instead of in a fruit bowl (bananas and pineapple are the exception to this); the freezer for leftovers that you’ll eat at a later date.
PROPERLY
Don't cook too much and serve less rather than more. If your family are still hungry after polishing off what’s on their plate, they can always go for seconds.
and SERVE IT
(and YOUR LEFTOVERS)
Any leftovers that you know you'll eat or reuse in the next day or two, can go straight in the fridge. Otherwise, freeze them and you'll have an easy meal for those busy days. Great leftover recipe ideas can be found at loveyourleftovers.com.au
