Repurpose Instead of Tossing - Creative Ways to Use Leftovers
Tired of food waste? Here are some smart ways to repurpose leftovers into new, delicious meals!
🍞 Stale Bread → Turn it into croutons, bread pudding, or homemade breadcrumbs. Just toast and blend!
🍚 Leftover Rice → Make fried rice, rice pudding, or add it to soup for extra texture.
🥦 Veggie Scraps → Save onion peels, carrot tops, and herb stems in a freezer bag—boil them later for homemade vegetable broth.
🍗 Leftover Chicken → Shred it for tacos, stir it into soup, or toss it in a wrap for an easy lunch.
🍌 Overripe Bananas → Perfect for banana bread, smoothies, or freezing for a healthy ice cream alternative.
🧀 Cheese Rinds → Drop them into soups or sauces for extra flavor. (Works great with Parmesan!)
🥛 Leftover Coffee → Freeze into ice cubes for iced coffee or blend into a mocha smoothie.
Pro Tip: Keep a "use-it-up" bin in your fridge to remind you of ingredients that need to be eaten soon!
