FRUIT

Store Better and Eat It!
Store apples
(https://stopfoodwaste.ie/foods/apples) in the fridge so they last longer – they will store for up to 1 month!
Use your over-ripe bananas to whizz up a quick and delicious smoothie. To kick start your day try this banana & oat breakfast smoothie:

VEGETABLES
(https://stopfoodwaste.ie/resources/storage-cooking/a-z?foodcategory=vegetables)
Buy Less and Eat It!
You can buy potatoes singly or in different package sizes. A large bag of spuds is only good value if they are eaten. Find out more about potatoes:

Tired-looking and floppy veggies are still nutritious and can make a yummy meal. Try SafeFood's Vegetable Provencal recipe: (https://www.safefood.net/recipes/vegetables-provencal).
If you are taking the seven-day challenge, the Stop Food Waste team wants to hear how you get on! Share your results on social media by using the hashtag #KnowYourFoodWaste and tagging @stopfoodwaste.ie
