Food waste is a massive issue across the globe, and the UK alone throws out approximate 9.5 million tonnes of food as waste a year and we have to tackle it head on!! Not only is this disastrous for the planet it's a killer on the wallet (or purse) too.
Whilst no one really intentionally throws out food it's not always easy, especially when you have a slice of stale bread left or a half bag of slowly congealing salad leaves and your trying to think, what can I do with this now!
Here you will find my top 20 wasted foods in the UK and a number of quick and easy recipes that can be used to either use them up or prolong their shelf life... get stuck in and lets save the planet.
I am really keen to hear from you on other products that you feel regularly go to waste, so please do email me on daniel@theyellowtangerine.com and let's see if we can make up some more funky dishes and reduce food waste together.
