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 track the food that my household of 1 throws out so I can learn what we're wasting and why.

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

I will scale down the recipe of a meal to make just the right amount for my household of 1 so we eat everything up.

When I do cook I will experiment with small batch cooking recipes. My goal is to make smaller amounts of food because I often end up wasting food that I cooked to much of and that went bad.
