You can share the food you usually throw away with a child who struggles with hunger.
Try these food-saving kitchen hacks:

Don’t throw away the stalks of veggies; add them to sautés and baked dishes for
extra color and flavor.

Store fresh fruit and vegetables in sealed jars. They’ll last twice as long as
they would in plastic.

Rinse hardened bread with water and bake at 425˚ for 3-5 minutes for bread that
tastes like new.

Keep bananas fresh longer by wrapping the end of the bunch with plastic wrap.

Put fresh herbs in an ice cube tray, cover with water or olive oil, and freeze
for easy seasonings that last.

Use leftover chicken bones or veggie peelings to make homemade broth. It’s
tastier and healthier!

Squeeze lemon juice over avocadoes to reduce oxidation and prevent them from
going brown.

Plan meals ahead and shop smart. A grocery pickup or delivery service can help
you avoid impulse buys!

Scraping the bottom of a mustard or jam jar? Add some oil, vinegar and a bit of
seasoning to turn it into a delicious salad dressing.
