In today's video I share with you some of my favourite ways to reduce food waste at home! From zero waste recipes, to worm composting, to making meal plans! These are just a few of the ways I try to minimise food waste whilst also having those fresh foods all throughout the colder months. I also love to meal prep for the month, so I'll be exploring new recipes and creating more sustainable and zero waste food content soon.

This sort of education should be compulsory at schools! Along with visits to landfill, so people can have a better understanding of how out actions impact the environment. Thank you for keeping it realistic and for your nonjudgmental attitude 😊

@SustainablyVegan 11 месяцев назад

This will always be a judgement free space ! Thanks for being here xx

@ericataylor1160 11 месяцев назад

I hear what you're saying but it's not even an option for people it should be an option in schools I agree but when you force people you just get people that are resentful and it can backfire then so I think it's better to offer the programs and educate people as to why they are correct and important😊

@marycharlebois6627 11 месяцев назад

I think everybody will agree… food prices are INSANE!! We need to get the most out of our food… from peels to scraps to every little fibre and crumb. These food waste hacks are super useful as well as good for the planet and the wallet. Thanks, Immy, for all these tips and reminders. Now if you’ll excuse me… I’m off to make some bruised banana muffins🍌. Mmm… muffins!! Ⓜary💕

@SustainablyVegan 11 месяцев назад

They are indeed absolutely wild right now! After editing this, I think I'm ready to make banana bread again too haha

@missgreece91 11 месяцев назад

You’re absolutely correct

@miraearles3372 11 месяцев назад

As a farmer, I don't think food prices are crazy right now. I think as a culture we've undervalued food for a long time now. I love content like this because it shows the true value of food and advocates for good stewardship of our resources. ❤️

@marycharlebois6627 11 месяцев назад

@@miraearles3372 I agree with you about undervaluing food… I, myself, have taken food for granted especially in my younger years. My partner and I have a massive veggie garden and a green house during the summer, and this really helps to cut down our costs at the grocery store and the farmer’s market. We preserve a lot of the summer’s bounty and we have a root cellar for winter root veggies. I’m not sure where you live, but I live in northern 🇨🇦 where food prices have tripled during the past two years. Yes, Immy’s content really brings awareness to the table, so to speak. Thanks for your great comment. Have an awesome weekend. Ⓜ️ary

@marycharlebois6627 11 месяцев назад

Oh thank goodness for my frugal upbringing!! Nope, I never would have said this as a young person, but as an adult… my oh my, do I ever appreciate my parents who would not let us waste food or any other items in the house. Backyard garden, compost bin behind the garage, reusables, tuppers full of left-overs, and every little item was saved, reused, and stretched to the max!! These habits have stayed with me all my life. Isn’t is funny how we adopt the habits of our upbringing, even tho’ we may not have loved them when we were young and knew it all… haha!🤣 Ima loving Vlogus, Immy!! TYSM!! Ⓜary💕

@marieisapenguin4379 11 месяцев назад

I looooove Vlogust already! Daily Immy content is unmatched hehe. Thanks for these tips and hacks, I have so much room for improvement when it comes to saving food scraps and using them for other things! Although we do have a compost, so most scraps end up being used to grow new food once it‘s all composted. Either way, it‘s great to have a few more ideas! 😊

@marie1232 11 месяцев назад

Another great tip I got from Nigella once it to pour left over wine into an ice-cube tray and freeze it. Then just pop one or two to deglaze your pan. It's so useful to have these on hand when recipes call for red wine, but you don't want to open a bottle.

@scheitahnberg 11 месяцев назад

this is really smart! because if I have an open bottle - I will drink it, but will definitely never have a single glass-worth on hand to cook in the same week.

@viivi4196 11 месяцев назад

I really like how you said to use what hacks and tips we can and leave the rest - I feel like that's such a gentle and reassuring approach! also, aquafaba works amazing in a chocolate mousse, I've made it so many times!

@jan9562 11 месяцев назад

Aquafaba in humus makes it lighter/ smoother and compensates for leaving out the oil.

@dawnkeckley7502 11 месяцев назад

I take dark leafy greens and place the, directly in the freezer as soon as I realize I’m not using them fast enough. Then I add to soups, smoothies, curries, stirfrys. I freeze the heels of bread in a bag. When I run out of the breadcrumbs I’ve already made, I toast these slices and run them through a food processor and then freeze those breadcrumbs.

@dawnkeckley7502 11 месяцев назад

I freeze leftover rice and either use it for another meal or add it to soups, salads, tacos. For extra mashed potatoes, I freeze to top a cottage pie. Vegetable scraps go in a freezer bag for a future vegetable stock.

@acgrubbs8895 11 месяцев назад

@hausofstructure8705 11 месяцев назад

"Cupboard sweep" added to calendar with monthly reminder for Tuesday morning when things are quiet and I usually don't go to town. thank for the video. I really liked how you reused your own footage (lovely scenes) and the video overall still feels fresh and new ♥

@jillianharringtonperkins 11 месяцев назад

I loved the inclusion of your version of Shelbi's "do your best and advocate for the rest." We moved to our new place late in the growing season, but I'm hoping that next year I'll be able to get my own little garden and compost station going!

@nakymatonlapsiN 11 месяцев назад

if you have a community garden near you check if they have a compost bin you are allowed to contribute to! i take my compostable waste to my community compost since i garden there anyways :)

@TheGPFilmMaker 11 месяцев назад

I can't wait to try the avocado-pit dyeing! I even have a dress already picked out to dye! I freeze my homemade bread to avoid it going stale, scrub my veggies with baking soda to avoid peeling, and love making veggie stock with my scraps! I didn't know people tossed their broccoli stalks until a few months ago and was honestly shocked! I've always just cooked them with the crowns like regular broccoli! Going to have to try the fruit rollups and super greens powder! I'm also planning to get some little herb plants for my window sill and I can't wait!

@jan9562 11 месяцев назад

Store lettuce in a damp tea towel in the fridge - whole will keep longer but washed leaves keep well too. A limp lettuce will come back to life soaked in cool water for a few hours (then let it drip out well).

@dawnkeckley7502 11 месяцев назад

Roasted broccoli coins are amazing. I cut the stalks into little discs and roast with olive oil. So much better than the florets.

@lilred312benett6 11 месяцев назад

I do all the things pls wasting. I like the idea of a food waste journal. I menu plan and meal prep. I don't always eat everything before they go off and it breaks my heart. It's a learning process.

Re: wine, freeze it. Those ice cubes can be added to any recipe that asks for a bit of wine or a number of stews

@salan3 11 месяцев назад

Lots of great ideas. Some of which I do already. However the cost of electricity (at least here in the UK) is so high that using an oven is very expensive. We don't really use ours now. How about examples of how to do some of these things 'low power' ways? That would be great

@user-fn7uo6ku9m Месяц назад

solar oven or toaster oven maybe?

@salan3 Месяц назад

@@user-fn7uo6ku9m Solar oven? In the UK ?? lol We have a toaster oven and use that.

@user-fn7uo6ku9m Месяц назад

idk maybe worth a try 😅 they work like a greenhouse so they trap heat even when its a bit overcast. toaster oven is definitely more consistent, though

@morgan0598 11 месяцев назад

For people that don't have as much space, you can bake your veggie scraps real low to give a roasted flavor while drying them out. You can then blend them up to make a veggie powder to make stock on demand.

@ambersmith2612 11 месяцев назад

I slice my broccoli stems very, very thinly & steam them with the rest of the broccoli. Tastes delicious

Citrus peel can be dried use an air freshener in the fridge or room; when soaked overnight and adding to smelly pots helps to refresh them, particularly effective when use them with soda crystals.

@laurennightshade 11 месяцев назад

I think it is important to mention the energy usage of using your oven for potato skin crisps or dehydrating lemons or greens. Always make sure your oven is full or you are negating any potential environmental benefits, especially if you compost.

Broccoli stems: cut them into chunks and peel. They're great in stir frys or sliced and mixed with corn!

Btw, I also LOVE your skilled girl summer series! I feel so inspired and also relaxed to just start somewhere instead of trying to be an expert from the beginning. Failing often helps us find our own individual way through life. I really like that and appreciate your way of thinking. 😊✌

It's amazing the plant parts that are edible that we discard. I now eat the leaves of my cauliflowers - I treat them like a different veggie. They can be quite bitter, so they need some salt or to be boiled first. Anyway, I like them in fried rice and stews. Good filler!

If anyone has left over Mars bar or similar squishy chocolate and not full bottle of vodka... cut of the Mars bar, pop it in the vodka bottle, put the top on TIGHTLY and then next time you run the hot cycle on your dishwasher, just pop the bottle in.the Mars bar will melt and you'll have chocolate toffee vodka.

@hannahwiz1 11 месяцев назад

This might be a stupid question but to make apple cider vinegar, what liquid did you put the apple scraps in? Is it just vinegar that you're flavouring with apple or is it water or something that turns into vinegar?

@ambersmith2612 11 месяцев назад

It’s water. The yeast from the apples ferments with it and produces vinegar
