Your recipe for saving the planet (and some money too!)

If you’re like many of us, you waste your fair share of food. And you may think that food waste is an inevitable part of modern life. But in Zero Waste Cooking For Dummies, you’ll learn how to use every last bit of what’s in your fridge, freezer, and cupboard to make delicious meals, save money, and do your part for the environment. In this book, celebrated dietician and internationally recognized author Roseanne Rust walks you through every step of transforming how you plan your meals, shop for groceries, cook your food, and deal with leftovers. Whether you’re the type of cook who can burn water or a professional chef, you’ll find tips and strategies that help you buy and waste less food.

Up to 40 percent of the food produced doesn’t get eaten. This is a waste of not only food but also all the resources it took to produce, process, and deliver that food. This book aims to help and encourage you to waste less food. Many zero waste cooking books adopt the notion that to have a positive impact on the environment, you must focus almost entirely on eating more plants and removing animal products from the diet. This book doesn’t. The notion that everyone can (or wants to) adopt a vegetarian diet is simply unrealistic. Instead, this book encourages you to give more thought to what you eat, and what you throw away, while you begin to adopt a budget-friendly diet that balances your use of a variety of foods with less waste and less harm to the environment.

Zero Waste Cooking For Dummiesoffers:

Dozens of recipes for delicious entrees, appetizers, breakfasts, soups, salads, and more
Grocery lists that make shopping a breeze and save you real money
Tips and tricks for how to use leftovers to craft or add to meals so you don’t need to throw anything away

The perfect book for any homemaker or home cook, this book is a must-read for anyone looking for ways to save a little money, reduce their carbon footprint, and make some amazing meals.
