Bailey Breeggemann

I will sign up for Fridge Check Friday emails, sent by Hennepin County but open to everyone, to prompt me to check my fridge for food that needs to be used up and for hacks on storing food to keep it fresh.

I will rescue limp produce like leafy greens or carrots by soaking them in cold water or using them in recipes where appearance doesn't matter.

I will roll unwashed lettuce in a dry towel, then store it in a sealed bag in the refrigerator. I will properly store 2 bunches of leafy greens.

I will scale down the recipe of a meal to make just the right amount for my household of 2 so we eat everything up.

I will only purchase the items on my grocery list and avoid impulse purchases.

I will create a cookbook or recipe collection of go-to meals for my household to make meal planning easier.

I will watch 2 videos or documentaries to learn about the scope and scale of food waste in this country.
