Let’s start unwasting
We’ve all been there – loading up the bowl, getting near the finish line and realising your eyes are bigger than your stomach. Most plate waste ends up in the bin. Keeping your extra food in the pan means you can still grab more if you want, but you’ll be more likely to pack away what’s leftover for tomorrow’s lunch.
Tip 01
We all love seconds
Serve a little less than you think you’ll eat, and keep the rest in the pan. If you’re still hungry, you can always go back for more. This simple habit helps you enjoy your meal without overloading your plate, giving you a better sense of how much you really need.
Tip 02
Help Yourself
Who doesn’t love a big dinner with family or friends? Instead of serving everything straight from the stove to people’s plates, leave food in a serving dish on the kitchen bench or table. Let everyone serve themselves based on how hungry they are and you’ll be less likely to scrape those last unwanted bites into the bin.
Don't worry
We’ve all filled our bowl to the brim, thinking we’d eat it all, only to feel full halfway through. There’s no need to throw it out – cover it in cling wrap, stick it in the fridge with your name on it, and you’ll have lunch sorted for tomorrow.
