A spoonful of Spread-mmms olive tapenade will make an ordinary omelette taste amazing! Just grab some eggs, some Spread-mmms, and whatever #nofoodwaste leftovers are hanging around in your fridge!...
  • spreadmmms This omelette has (in addition to Spread-mmms and eggs) cherry tomatoes, collard greens, potato, and a little goat cheese (left over from a tapenade tasting!). Yum. Who knew wilted collard greens...
Pro tip! Pre-cut your kale. Eat greens all week.

Do you ever buy greens from the farmers market (or grocery) and then let them hang out in the fridge, turning yellow and losing nutrients until they're no good - b/c it takes too much time to wash...
  • LezEngel Yes, this is a great way to save greens and make life easier! I like to add a paper towel to the bag to absorb any excess moisture that may hasten their demise.
  • MargaretG @LezEngel thank you! As you can see moisture is an issue for mine so thanks for the tip!!

  • munchiemummy Quality coffee comes at a price, though I. I wonder how expensive this will be? A "Whole Foods" trend? Or will it reach the mass markets?
  • DietID_TeamDietitians @munchimummy great point, but if it's a waste product, it may be more affordable.
  • terryhope I have a sample of this flour and love the fruity flavor it adds to baked goods

  • munchiemummy I saw an article about this today - I think it's an absolutely brilliant idea. More events should adopt this idea.
  • lauren Agreed! So much food goes to waste at large events and it could make such a difference. I wonder what stadiums and convention centers are doing about this day to day
  • katewilson So fantastic.
