Ripened banana and raspberry bread
What to do with that lovely bunch of bananas on the fridge? Prepare a sweet, ripened banana and raspberry bread, ideal for breakfast on these summer days. If you don’t have raspberries, any other type of berries, pear, or apples will make a perfect combination!
Vegetable balls and potato crisps
This week, a colourful and flavourful recipe for your vegetables that usually end up at the bottom of your compost bin. Let us know how it turns out!
Lost Fruits Crumble
I found something I thought lost, some delicious raspberries and strawberries in my fridge. So I will prepare a delicious crumble to enjoy them!
Hummus and onion flat bread
Try Frida’s dip variations to help you get more vegetable protein in your diet: traditional hummus, baba ganoush and roasted bell pepper spread. These classics are prepared by collecting pieces of vegetables from the fridge. All served with homemade onion flatbread – tender, warm, and just right for a cozy day at home… Mmm!
Citrus-tahini tofu with peanuts and kale chips
A common source of food waste derives from lack of ideas about how to cook the ingredients we already have. We buy food and after a few days it starts to rot, or we simply don’t enjoy it as much as imagined before. This recipe is meant to enjoy that “don’t know what to do with” tofu, and that kale left in the fridge, before it looks like a yellow shrub.
Rescued tomatoes sauce and fresh orecchiette
Autumn is just around the corner, and the change of colours makes me crave almost daily for my favourite fruits: tomatoes. This recipe is intended to rescue not very fresh tomatoes and transform them into a tasty pasta sauce. A fresh home-made pasta recipe is proposed but feel free to use as well regular bought pasta…Especially that forgotten portion still lying in the fridge!
Zero Food Waste Recipe: Risotto Rosso
Today I invite you to celebrate the summer with a simple and easy-to-make dish, but which at the same time results in a burst of flavours, colours and sensations: a risotto rosso.
Spinach soup and garlic tofu
I have always loved spinach, either fresh in salad or cooked on a pie, still I often find them about to rot in the corner of the fridge. To avoid this tragic end, how about transforming them into a healthy and delicious soup accompanied by garlic tofu!
