[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just [b]eat less red meat[/b]. Good for us anyway. Have more meals that aren't protein main and sides. But all together like rice bowls with [b]lentils[/b] and a fried egg. More soups. More eggs for dinner in a variety of ways. I just [b]shop less in an effort to throw out less[/b]. It helps.

- Lentils & Beans are shelf-stable and you can buy in bulk. It gives you fiber and protein.

- Eat a lot more veggies and jazz up your food with herbs and spices.

- Cook from scratch

- Make dishes that have lots of veggies and only some amount of meat in it to flavor it well.

- Experiment with different cuisines and shop in ethnic stores, farmers market.

Most important is to buy less food.  I shop every 3 days. I no longer have to throw away moldy fruits etc, because for a family of 4, I will buy only 3 days worth of fruits. For example - 12 bananas, 6 peaches, 6 apples, 6 pears, 4 oranges,  a bag of grapes or box of berries.  Family average 2-4 helping of fruits every day. [/quote]
