No food left behind

After reading an article on the blog Design Observer a few weeks back about the amount of food that is wasted in America, I decided to create a little challenge for myself. Too often I head down to the grocery store and pick up a few things for dinner and only end up using a quarter of the bunch of mint, 2 out of the three leeks and half of the lettuce and by the time I finally come up with a dinner plan that uses the left overs, some or all of the ingredients that remain have gone to waste. To make matters worse, I find that there are always a few items that are just a little more difficult to fully use up while they are still fresh. In my fridge you will often find a odd half of a lemon or lime, an expired half full sour cream, yogurt with a few tablespoons left in it the bottom, nearly finished cheese blocks and a few other such items that some how always seem to get left behind. I even have one of those smaller european fridges, I can only imagine what would happen if I were in charge of a full sized fridge.

So with the wasteful side of me in mind, I decided to create a challenge for myself: buy a whole chicken and really use it to its full potential. And no eating the same chicken dish over and over all week long. This challenge was about creativity and each dish needed to be significantly different. I’m actually pretty impressed with the results. Not only did I do a good job of using the whole chicken but we also ate pretty diverse meals every evening. All and all I think the challenge was a success. Here is what I did with one Chicken and a few other things:

Noodles ahoy

I kind of feel like the only thing that I have been talking about lately is food. But it is difficult not to! We all eat and we eat 3 meals a day which works out to 21 meals a week, that is a pretty substantial part of the week. Not to mention the planning, prep and clean up that goes along with each one of those meals. By the way, this is what my kitchen looked like on Monday after I finished baking the sticky buns.

With spring on its way the last thing I want to do is spend the evening over the stove. Enter the rice noodle. Rice noodles could quite possibly be the unsung hero of weekday dinners. They are fast, easy and ridiculously versatile. In fact, some of our favourite dinners around my house feature rice noodles. Take Pad Thai for example, fast and delicious.
