Cook a meal from what you have

Make a meal using items already in your fridge and pantry.

Why it helps

Using what you have cuts food waste and saves money. It's also a good way to try new combinations.

How to do it

1. Check what needs using up.
2. Choose a simple recipe like soup, omelette or stir-fry.
3. Cook and eat.

Make it easier

Make a simple sandwich or salad.

Make it harder
