Regular readers will know I rarely post on a Saturday, but as I missed my weekly Food Waste Friday slot yesterday I just had to check in. Now you may be wondering why when I had promised a Food Waste Friday linky every week, I didn't honour my word. Too much of this I'd say: We spent the day at a trampoline park and then at the local Bella ...

Food Waste Isn’t Just About Friday’s
It's Friday Guys - Food Waste Friday. Food Waste isn't just about Friday's. Reducing food waste takes conscious effort every day of the week. For example, yesterday I was in no doubt that there were way too many vegetables lurking in my fridge. This led to there being twice as many vegetables in the slow-cooked lamb casserole I made for ...
The Food Waste Friday Link Up Is Back!
The Food Waste Friday link up is back! Yay! It's Friday guys - Food Waste Friday. (I've completed my Friday routine and a Fridge photo is over on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) In my hand I have blueberries. Berries, in my experience, are one of those foods that may be fine to eat in the morning, yet can be inedible by the afternoon. I have ...
My Food Waste Friday Routine 2016
I thought it was time to go back to basics on Food Waste Friday. What better way than to go through my Food Waste Friday routine now it's 2016. Being introduced to Food Waste Friday back in 2010 by the original founder Kristen aka The Frugal Girl, my routine has changed and evolved. The fundamentals of reducing food waste, meal planning and being ...

Love Food Hate Waste | Meaty Issues campaign
This is a sponsored post in support of the very worthwhile campaign 'Meaty Issues' by Love Food Hate Waste. Us Brits are no strangers to using up our leftover turkey. Turkey curry must account for *95% of meals in the UK on Boxing day *totally made up figure with absolutely no statistical data to support the claim :) However the following attention ...
Sweet and Sour Chicken Recipe
It's been a while in the coming, but this is a sweet and sour chicken recipe worth waiting for. I guarantee it. There is never one mouthful left at the end of dinner when this dish is served. Us Wright's like our traditions, and one that began to develop was one of having a Chinese take-away on a Friday evening. It was starting to get a little ...
Let’s Celebrate Food Waste Friday
This week we've already celebrated Chinese New Year (it's the year of the Fire Monkey), Shrove Tuesday, and Valentines Day is on the way. The older I get, the more I appreciate these special days. I like having something to celebrate. Life should be a celebration. Did you read The Frugal Girl's post this week about looking on the bright side? I'm ...
Happy Pancake Day 2016
Happy Pancake Day 2016 everyone! Today I will let the pancakes do the talking. Here are 3 I made earlier. In fact much earlier. Months even years earlier. Plus here's my pancake recipe from a few years back Enjoy! ...
Vegetable Lasagne Using Greek Yogurt
Before I go any further I need to make a statement: Despite always spelling yogurt, as yoghurt, I am now spelling it yogurt - even though it looks completely wrong to my eye. This is because on the yoghurt carton in my fridge it is spelled 'yogurt'. Does that make any sense at all? No? Okay let's continue with Food Waste Friday... Last Friday I decided ...
