Vegetables and potatoes

🥦 This one should be easy! Look for loose in the supermarket or at your local greengrocer, and remember to take your own bags. Treat yourself to a local veg box delivery, often these come without plastic and have the bonus of supporting local farms. 

🥔 When seasoning and preparing your veg, look out for cardboard boxes of salt rather than plastic bottles or tubs. Glass bottles of oil can be more expensive so keep an eye out for offers. If you are roasting in butter or fat look out for paper wrappings rather than plastic tubs. (this paper will often have some plastic in so can't be recycled but has less plastic overall than the tubs). 

🌰Cardboard boxes and glass bottles of seasoning can also make great gifts for the foodie in your life. 

🥕If you prefer frozen veg on your big day they are easy to prep at home and freeze yourself. Potatoes freeze especially well in any form, whether you have chips, mash or roasties!
