35% of all food is wasted in the United States and this percentage rises around the holidays. Taking responsibility for the food we have is the friendliest thing we can do for our budget and the planet. Here are some tips to maximize your food:
🍁 When planning your meal and shopping list, calculate how much food you'll need and avoid over-purchasing.
🍁 Cook "roots to shoots" by using every part of your produce or food item
🍲 Beet greens make great additions to salad, or vegetable scraps and bones can be used for soup broth.

“We definitely need to be focusing more on doing these small actions like addressing expiration date labels, because even though it’s such a tiny part of this whole food waste issue, it can be very impactful.” -Patty
