    Are there food items you have been better about using up and not wasting since you started keeping an inventory of what's in your fridge?

    "What was I thinking!"

    Working on this food inventory is showing me there are certain things I can't live without and there are some things I think I need and I don't use as much at as much as I thought... for example the large bag of diced celery has been waiting for use for some time now and since it's not soup, whether I realize my mistake of not separating it into smaller portions for stirfry when I put it in the freezer.

    However, gently hammering to separate it should solve the problem!

    Just getting started on the challenge and inviting/re-inviting team members! Right now my kitchen is kind of messy and that is detrimental to food prep and definitely makes me not want to focus in the kitchen, however, little by little, I'm getting organized and hoping that the food waste challenge will be an inspiration!

    Do you have days when you don't have time to spend making food? How has meal prep helped one those days?

    I learned from my mom meal prep can only save you time, but also set you up in a pinch for unexpected guests.

    For example, preparing hamburger, turkey patties in advance, and putting them in the freezer, chopping enough celery, and onions to last for two days,

    I've been using these beautifully colored fresh eggs for breakfast and side dishes. Dying the shells and grinding to a powder makes a great addition to your fertilizer!
    Look at these colors!
