After the event
By following these tips after the party, you can reduce food waste and make your Coronation Street party more sustainable!
π₯ Love your leftovers
Have everyone take home either what they brought or fill a container and take that away with them. If you are tired after the party having 'go to' leftovers in the fridge the next day is a great option!
π₯Ά Use your freezer
If there are lots of leftovers that are cooked or uncooked, pop them in your freezer so that you don't have to worry about eating them quickly.
π₯ Plan meals around leftovers
Use any leftover food to plan meals for the week to avoid letting it go to waste.
π Compost or recycle your food scraps
If you have a compost bin, compost any uncooked food scraps. You can recycle all cooked and uncooked food waste in your food waste kerbside collection bin. Find out more about how to recycle your food waste.
π€ Donate excess food
Consider donating any excess food to a local food bank or charity to reduce waste and help those in need. There are also lots of food waste sharing apps that would be a great place to upload any food that could be going to waste.
π Make stock from scraps
Use leftover vegetable scraps, such as carrot tops and onion skins, to make vegetable stock for future recipes.
