I will sign up for Fridge Check Friday emails, sent by Hennepin County but open to everyone, to prompt me to check my fridge for food that needs to be used up and for hacks on storing food to keep it fresh.

I will check to see what will be ready to eat in my garden or CSA box this week and plan recipes that use these ingredients.

I will track the food that my household of 2 throws out so I can learn what we're wasting and why.

I will take a fridge and pantry inventory to stay up to date with what I have at home before I go grocery shopping.

I will plan a meal to use up leftovers by creating a tasty smorgasbord or using a recipe that repurposes them.

I will set aside time to prepare meals in advance.
