Meg Masterson

I will watch 1 videos or documentaries to learn about the scope and scale of food waste in this country.

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

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

I will explore different meal plan techniques and choose one that works for my household.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu of meals and ingredients for my household of 2.

I will observe how much my family members eat and learn how many portions will match our life stages and appetites.
