MILK AND YOGURT: If it’s getting close to the expiration date for your gallon of milk or yogurt, don’t worry! You can freeze dairy for later use in recipes. Try freezing yogurt in an ice cube tray, and using the cubes in smoothie recipes is a simple way to eliminate food waste.
ONION SKINS AND VEGETABLE TOPS: When chopping vegetables for your next meal, don’t toss all the parts you aren’t using into the trash can. You can use the stems and skins to make delicious vegetable stock. Just strain them out after you use them. Another idea is to use onion and garlic skins to flavor olive oil!
