I will learn about what food is still safe to eat if portions have gone bad and make sure to utilize the edible portions if I can.

I will explore different meal plan techniques and choose one that works for my household.

I will set aside time to prepare meals in advance.

In addition to using up my edible food, I will separate and compost my food scraps using backyard composting, curbside pickup, or a drop-off program.

I will intentionally buy ugly produce at the grocery store, farmers market, or sign up for an ugly produce CSA box.

I will create an "Eat First" area in my fridge to prioritize food that needs to be used right away for my household of 1.

I will purchase produce and meat directly from a local farmers market and make 2 meals.
