At holiday or any time, it’s a good idea to think about how you can keep household food waste in check. Thanksgiving may be different this year, but we can still have a special celebration with a few adjustments, while, at the same time, reducing food waste. As the USDA Food Loss and Waste Liaison, I would like to share with you a few tips that can help reduce food waste at our holiday meals and save you money. Plan Your Holiday Meal Before you go to the gro- cery store or order online, make a list to ensure that you only buy what you need. Making a written list helps you avoid impulse purchases, which may include foods they don’t need. For turkey, one rule of thumb is to plan for one pound per person, or a pound and a half if you want leftovers. For small- er gatherings, consider preparing only the favorite family side dishes. If you want to prepare all of your family’s traditional dishes, consider cutting recipes in half. And coordinate in ad- vance if you have guests who want to bring a dish. You might also want to serve one type of your favorite rolls or dessert in- stead of several. Save Scraps Freeze such scraps as vegetable peelings and meat trimmings for future culinary creations. Use them in savory broths and hearty soups. Season potato peelings and bake them into chips. Sauté extra chopped onions for recipe-ready caramelized D-040 Residential • Commercial • 30 Years Experience Your family’s Holiday celebration can be even better when you know you’ve not let food or money go to waste. onions. Save and Share Leftovers Place food in clear containers marked with the contents and date to increase the chances the leftovers will be remem- bered and eaten. If you have guests who want leftovers, let them choose their favorite dishes so that their take-away food containers match what they will really enjoy. Be Creative You can make great breakfast fritters with left- over mashed potatoes. Extra rolls and bread going stale can become bread pudding. Try mak- ing homemade turkey stock with the bones, or turkey chili with leftover meat. Whip extra butter- milk or cream into French toast batter. You could even start a new family tradition of serving a pot of turkey soup on the week- end after Thanksgiving. A great tool that you can use in your home to reduce food waste is the FoodKeeper App, which provides guidance on stor- age (e.g., in a refrigerator or freezer) for more than 650 food and beverage items and helps you track storage times for different foods. For example, for freshness and quality, rotisserie chicken should be consumed within three to four days when stored in refrigerator or within four months if stored fro- zen. This app also pro- vides guidance on safe handling and preparation with helpful cooking tips, such as how to thaw and roast a turkey by weight. FoodKeeper is available free as a mobile applica- tion for Android and Apple devices, or via desktop at FoodSafety.gov. Donate If you have extra cans of pumpkin pie filling, green beans, or cranberry sauce, consider donating them to a food bank to help those in need. To find a food bank nearby, visit the Feeding America web- site or EPA’s Excess Food Opportunities Map. Compost Composting your food scraps can help your gar- den grow. Learn how to get started with compost- ing resources from the U.S. Environmental Pro- tection Agency. Or, look into community compost or compost opportunities. Make sure you toss only organics in the collection container and keep out produce stickers and non- compostable plastic bags, service ware, or utensils. • Dr. Buzby is the USDA Food Loss and Waste Liaison in USDA’s Office of the Chief Econ- omist. 541-991-3405 D-057 997-2385.
