No Waste

This year I have really been using my slow cooker. I use it to make my apple/rhubarb sauces, soups, meals….and the newest one…. (and maybe the best)…porridge. I have tried a lot of new recipes, especially meals…always hoping for leftovers.

I love being able to stretch a meal into at least two. One thing I found by purchasing only Canadian…is our fresh products cost a bit more. I still buy them, but will try to make them go further as well.

So, between the slow cooker, and stretching fresh produce…I have found meals can be simpler and healthier. Our portions have certainly become smaller.

I feel I have appreciated my food this year. I certainly don’t feel I wasted my time…or my food.
