It's time for Food Waste Friday, when the Frugalgirl encourages
us to post pictures from the
previous week of wasted food from
our household. This accountability
hopefully will help us to be more
careful with our food and maybe save some
money.
Here it goes for this week.
This week we didn't have any waste, but I had to work at it a bit for that to happen. Below are some of the saves.

Apparently, no one likes this brand of raisin bread, so I put it in the freezer before it molded. The plan is to make French toast out of it later. |

Look! Cilantro
that isn't slimy. I bought it for one recipe where I used it, but I
also added it to another that didn't call for it. Hopefully, you won't be seeing this next week as I find
other places to sneak it in. |

We usually
have a hard time using up the rice that comes with our Chinese takeout.
This time it went into a stew before the mad dash to freeze it happened.
Also, this is actually where I hid used the cilantro. |

We had a big
watermelon that we weren't going to finish in a timely manor, so I gave
some to a friend. However, I didn't take any pictures before it left, so
here's a picture of the other fruit we have in the house.

I bet that raisin bread would also make great bread pudding.
ReplyDeleteGood idea. I haven't made bread pudding in ages, but I have an excellent recipe that I got when we lived in New Orleans.
DeleteAwesome! I somehow managed to not waste cilantro too. Miracles truly do happen C:
ReplyDeleteGreat week of no food waste! Watermelons never last very long in our house. Actually, usually, they are gone within one day :) I guess it's one of the ways for us to be sure kids "drink" enough during the day:)
ReplyDeleteWe seem to go in cycles. Sometimes the family can't get enough, and other times they're not in the mood.
