How to save money by avoiding food waste

As the price of groceries climbs higher and higher, we need to keep finding way to cut down our grocery bills.  One of the simplest ways to do so is by cutting down on food waste.  Australian’s throw away $5 billion worth of food per year, between 1 and 5 food items per week!  Think of all that cash thrown in the bin.  Here are some tips to help you reduce your food waste.

• Check your fridge and pantry when making your shopping list – By checking your fridge and pantry you can see what food you have at home, which allows you to meal plan around what you already have, also helping you to avoid buying multiples.

• Freeze fruit – Fruit often has a short shelf, but fruits like banana can be mashed and frozen, and apples can be stewed and frozen.  Alternatively, chop the fruit and freeze it, process it in the food processor and freeze again, which makes a great cool summer snack.  You can also turn fruit into a sauce by putting it in a saucepan over low heat for a few minutes with a bit of sugar and some lemon juice.  It can then be used as is or frozen.

• Use up the vegetables rolling around in your fridge/pantry – Turn any vegetables that need to be used up into a vegie bake, by slicing and placing them in a baking dish, pour over some cream, sprinkle with cheese and bake until tender.

• Use up stale bread – Turn stale bread into bread and butter pudding, by buttering bread triangles and baking with some sultanas and a mixture of egg, milk, cream and nutmeg.

• Savoury leftovers – Turn savoury leftovers into fried rice, quesadillas, frittatas, mince mixtures and toasted sandwiches.

• Make biscuits – Turn left over bits and pieces into biscuits, such as chocolate chips, dried fruit and nuts and breakfast cereal.

• Gift food items – Gift unwanted and unopened cans and bottles of food to family and friends, or to a local shelter or charity.

• Be organised – Keep your fridge and pantry organised so you can easily identify the foot items you have and those you need, and take a list to the supermarket so you don’t buy any unnecessary items.

Squishy Snak Pak review

I was very excited when I was approached to review a Squishy Snak Pak, I wish they had of existed when my 2 year old was a baby.  We always made our own baby food, but when we were heading out it was just too hard to take pre-prepared food with us, so we resorted to commercially made baby food pouches.  The Squishy Snak Pak would have been perfect to solve this dilemma, and would have saved us so much money!

The Squishy Snak Pak looks a fair bit like the baby food pouches you can buy from the supermarket.  The main difference is it’s refillable.  They have a zip lock down the bottom of the pouch, and a clever see-through panel so you can see what is inside the pouch, especially handy if you have a whole bunch of pouches in your fridge or freezer.

 

Most importantly, the Squish Snak Pak is BPA free (a big plus for me!), and can be washed and reused again and again.  These will seriously save you money.  Once the kids get older you can use them for yoghurt or pureed fruit, which you could even freeze and put in their lunchbox for school, far cheaper than the pre-packaged yoghurt and fruit pouches you get from the supermarket.

The Squishy Snak Pak was super easy to use, just unzip the bottom, fill with your chosen filling up to the fill line, and re-zip.  You then just remove the cap and the food can be sucked out of the top.  Once empty, they can be re-washed many times over.  My daughter loved hers filled with yoghurt, and it was such a convenient and mess free way to serve it.


Here are the key features of the Squishy Snak Pak:

• Snack container you can fill it from the bottom, squish it out the top
• Our product is made from BPA free materials and feature a choke proof cap along with a heavy duty zip closure. Fill it up with any creation your little one loves
• Wash it and reuse it over and over again
• the clear window on the back allows you to see the contents
• Holds 1/2 cup of your creations
• Ideal for use on the go
• Fun for at home snacks
• Great freezer storage for portioned baby puree’s
