Zero waste:
what’s it all about?
Going “zero waste” means trying to live a more sustainable life. It is a goal to
aspire to and your kitchen is the perfect place to start. Having a zero-waste
kitchen means buying less food in the first place, reusing whatever you can,
however you can, and throwing less away. Don’t worry, you won’t have to
completely overhaul your whole lifestyle—in fact, you might just be surprised
at the big difference some small, simple changes can make. From planning your
grocery shopping to what you put on your plate, this eBook is full of amazing
tips and tricks to help you get creative, start reducing waste, and even have fun
doing it!
The three “Rs”
Key to zero-waste living are the three “Rs:”
REDUCE • REUSE • RECYCLE
“Reduce” means not buying more than you need and this is where a little
planning goes a long way. “Reuse” means making the most of those leftovers
rather than trashing them. With a bit of thought and inspiration you can turn
your “waste” foods into delicious meals that are good for you, for your wallet,
and for the planet! Try the recipes in this eBook as a starting point and soon
you’ll be experimenting with whatever you have on hand. Finally, “recycle”
anything that you can’t reduce or reuse. Throughout this eBook you’ll find
inspirational, easy, and imaginative ways to put all these ideas into practice and
help you on your zero-waste journey.
