Food: Too Good to Waste Strategies
Smart Shopping
Smart Prep
Shop your fridge first. Then, make a
shopping list with the Meal Planner and
Shopping List template based on how many
meals you expect to eat at home. If you buy
only what you expect to use, you will be
more likely to use it and keep it fresh.
Use the Smart Prep Guide and prepare
foods soon after shopping to make it easier
to whip up meals later in the week saving
money, effort and time.
Smart Storage
Smart Saving
Store produce so it stays fresh longer using
the Fruit & Vegetable Storage Guide.
Know what is in your fridge and be mindful
of leftovers and old ingredients. An “Eat Me
First” sign can designate an area in your
fridge for leftovers or food that won’t keep
much longer.
Buy only what you need
Keep food fresh & avoid spoilage
Prep now, eat later
Eat what you buy
