THANKS FOR WATCHING! I LOVE YOU GUYS!

FTC: Save The Food has partnered with me on this video, but all opinions expressed are 100% honest and are my personal thoughts. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I freeze leftover coffee in an ice cube tray and then blend the cubes with plant milk, sweetener and cocoa powder to make ice lattes :)
Thats an awesome idea!!! I will try that and maybe make some blended coffee as well when the weather gets warmer.
YUM!
This is such an amazing idea!
Which plant milk do you use? :)
@@middleofnowhere98 I usually use soy-rice milk
People don't eat broccoli stems?? That's like half of the vegetable!
Right??
Hahahaha, yep I was thinking the same
Right!
It’s the tastiest part!
Sadly I've met so many people who don't eat the broccoli stems, which is crazy because I think it's the best part.
I had no idea people don't eat broccoli stems! I always just cut them up and ate them and assumed that was the norm 😅
missyoung888 I honestly think they taste better, sweeter then the crown.
Same!
I thought so too
Same?
Me too????
i have 2 tips for heating up leftovers, maybe people already know them but anyways
if you want to heat up leftover pasta, boil some water and throw the pasta in for just a few seconds before taking it out again. the pasta will be as if it were just cooked
if you want to heat up rice, put a little bit of water on it before placing it in the microwave and it won't turn out dry
Tilda J. Even rice that has dried out can be brought back to life! I love my instant pot but it tends to dry out my rice if left inside. Put a few table spoons in the bottom of your bowl & stir your rice in so it's all wet. Cover loosely & microwave for about 2 minutes. If it's still a bit dry repeat. Works every time!
Leftover rice with a little bit of butter or Olive oil is really tasty too!!
Thanks :) I'm going off to college so I'll definitely use these tips :)
TY
One food waste hack I often use is to use any leftover beans, lentils or chickpeas to make veggies/bean burgers!
another way to use for example a squeezed lemon before throwing it away is to put it in the dishwasher :) it smells amazing and no need of any artificial scents :)
If you want to go a step further with your lemon, you just throw an entire lemon into the blender, skin and all. Cut into manageable pieces for your blender and just blend it up (add a drop of water if needed). Then the same as you did in the video, freeze in an ice cube tray. You can also do this with kiwis (skin and all). It's great to flavour your water or smoothies.
Also, for the stock scraps, you can include herb stalks, apple cores and skins, wilted salad leaves (the ones on the outside that always look unappetising), carrot tops, radish and beetroot leaves, garlic skins.
That’s going to work better with certain varieties of lemon than others. Some have super bitter pith.
My mum put the whole lemons in the blender and then use that in cakes or cookies ,she also uses oranges.
This is how we do it-especially with small, thin-skinned limes.
Wait, kiwi? The whole thing, with the fur?
Ignore "sell by" and "best before" dates. "Use by" are a bit more important but still, foods don't carry a personal agenda with it and at the strike of midnight turn bad. Use common sense, if it looks or smells iffy dont use it, if it looks and smells fine prepare it properly and enjoy.
Very sensible advice
Most foods with „use by“ on them aren‘t vegan anyway.
Just a tip: broth tastes even better if you let it cook for 12-24 hours in a slow cooker! I let it cook for about 2 hours on high and then reduce to low for the rest of the time!
food waste belongs into a compost pile or some of the other options rather than the trash where at all possible
Your voice is so relaxing and this video is beneficial for everyone!
It's unintentional ASMR
@@ladyrosemary5480 yesss
Sooooo relaxing 😌
Absolutely agree! It's relaxing, informative, useful, just cool!
Hi! I'm an environmental toxicologist and I think this video was very pertinent. Great job!
You should totally make a channel based on you knowledge, I would definitely watch it
Yes I’d be interested in this too
That lemon hack was AMAZING!! Life changing. I’m going to be doing that from now on. Thanks for the video 😁
I know right! 😊 And you end up getting much more out of each lemon. I used to squeeze half a lemon into my water before and by using this method, I get about 6 lemon cubes per lemon = 6 lemon waters 👍🏻
Doesn't it loose the vitamin c ?
I mean, by doing it in advance... citrics oxidize....
I keep my ginger in the freezer. Just take it out and grate it. No need to thaw or peel. Save your used coffee grounds for your garden.
Great idea!
No need to peel after freezing? I have to try this!
Nope. I just grate it as is.
I also do that! Yep it's a great tip! I also use ginger paste..so I just blend a nicely scrubbed root n voila...fresh ginger paste n I did not even peel it!
So you wash/dry ginger and freeze as is?
Please please make a video for you freezer meals and how do thaw them because I’m at a loss
With dried out bread you can make croutons to top on salads and soups.
Cut bread into cubes, fry with olive oil and spices (like whole cumin, rosemary) on low heat. Can also roast with seeds and nuts. Lately I have been using sunflower seeds with my homemade croutons- also good coupling with wilted salad to get crunch back!
That's a great idea.
Roasted sunflower seeds are also really good on pasta! My son loves it.
I stopped buying treats for my dog since I realized he loved broccoli stems 💚
My dog loves carrots, broccoli, apple, cucumber etc its such a good way to give your dog nutrients and vitamins that are not in processed dog foods.
@@nika5318 omg mine too, anything with a crunch ☺
My dogs love them too. And I peel my carrots directly to them. They love them! Same with the ends of zucchini
@Fen Karma lol, one of my dogs politely declined blueberries and banana. He will keep his mouth shut and refuse to open it for blueberries. He will gently take the banana so it doesn't touch his mouth as much. Then turns the corner and sets it down and walks away.
My dog passed away earlier this year but he loved brocolli stems too, as well as lettuce, apples and cucumbers. He liked bananas and yoghurt as treats too!
Phew. This video was all I needed to RUSH for the subscribe button. But I'm so happy with anybody that gives ANY hacks that lead to less food wastage. It's awesome. Good stuff!
Whenever I am cooking cauliflower I cut the stems off and eat them as a snack while cooking and throughout the day. It is super crunchy. Since I am allergic to peppers I substitute cauliflower stems :D
This was such a information packed video I loved every minute of it! Makes me happy knowing I enjoy eating my broccoli stems too. I’ve always loved the taste so I’ve never thrown them out 🌱💚
So glad you liked it 😊 And yay for broccoli stems!
I like broccoli stems better than the florets honestly 😂
I'm probably the is one that eats the core of cabbage, when I cut it out, that is my little treat. Now my adult son enjoys also.
What an amazing and informative video! I keep all my lemon peels, remove all the pith and put them in a mason jar with vinegar to make a eco-friendly cleaner. Sometimes I mix lemon and orange peels and add a few drops of essential oils too :)
I do the same thing it makes my kitchen smell so good and citrus-y. I use whatever citrus I brought this week. Grapefruit, orange, lemon, lime its all good
Love your pantry. Have you done a pantry organization video, and pantry staple items you consistently repurchase?
also for people with horses, mine loves the brocolli stems etc. Also cauliflower stems.
FLEUR YES! I do that too. Mine can be a very picky eater so I will often bring leftovers and mix it with his regular food and he‘ll eat all of it😂
Dunno how many people have horses 😂
Chickens eat a lot of left-over things too
I compost any fruit and veggie scraps I have. I takes a while to make and also I have the space. So I limit my waste that way
Try blending the skins first. I put all my scraps in my blender then put it in a big black pot in my garden which is covered to compost. It all breaks down so much quicker.
My mom just plants most scraps in the garden and doesn't even take any special care of it. We have a lot of trees, and even if they don't grow, these things help the soil so much.
I really appreciate your video, not only the specific tips but links to more in depth info!
This video is so informative and you're so nice to listen to!! Thank you for the effort!
Awesome! Such an important topic and great hacks. When I was a kid I actually didn't like the broccoli flowers and would only eat the stems. My brother was the opposite so it worked out well, but these days I love the whole thing! My favorite veggie!
I just posted a new video in honor of Earth Day with my favorite ways to reduce waste in the kitchen. I would love it if you would check it out! I'm a new TH-camr and could use some love!💖
My mom and I also don't like the tops and love the stems! We eat them anyway, but people always think its funny when I eat the top first to "save the best for last!"
Really love this video, packed with so many great tips. Really enjoyed the freezing and citrus tips.
Thanks so much for taking the time to put this together.
Love the way you organize your kitchen!
Wow freezing the zest!! So many ideas to save food that never crossed my mind. Thank you so much I appreciate this upload thank you so much didn't know you could use the peels for infused waters, cleaning my plants etc♥️♥️♥️
As a baker I try to always buy my lemons, limes and oranges when they're on sale. I will zest and juice them for future recipes. The freezer doesn't harm the flavor at all.
Content is great, production value is great, you're great. Love the video. Thanks!
This was SO helpful and informative! Thank you!
I never thought of using the scraps to make vegetable stock before. Thank you for the video!
I use lemon juice when making homemade strawberry jam. I cut the lemon in half and squeeze out the juice required for the recipe. When I'm done with the lemon I place it in a bowl with a small amount of water. I then place it in the microwave for 5 minutes on high. I take a damp cloth and wipe the microwave clean. Works like a charm. Then dump the lemon in liquid into the garbage disposal and grind it up to clean and deodorize.
I always thought your voice was so sooothing and relaxing and still do! Ahhhhh I love your videos your recipes are amaaaazing! 💚
what a great Video! And not to go grocery Shopping when hungry is a great tip! Shopping when hungry is like flirting when drunk haha
Unfortunately that doesn't work for everyone. If I go shopping after a meal I never buy enough. I shop once a month and if I'm not hungry I buy enough for maybe a week and a half, then I have to shop again.
Another thing you could do is compost your raw ingredients like peels, stems etc and use them as soil for your garden 🤗
I'm so happy your back to posting a bit køre often! I missed your videos ❤️
Very fascinating! Especially the storage ideas. I will definitely check the website. Thank you for sharing!
You are my favorite TH-camr out of everyone! Thanks for sharing and can’t wait to see the next
I love the lemon cube idea!!! Totally implementing that

You did such a great job with this video Olga!every hack is practical and easy, I appreciated the lemon hack, never thought about that but is genius 😍 I was already applying the FIFO hack, it is key to not trow away food for me personally.
I spied some silicone bags, are you thinking about producing them for fablunch?😍 I just discovered them too and got some online, they are life changing.
I am definitely going to check savethefood for the proper way to store and freeze veggies, it is something I often think about.
