Thirty plants a week - avoiding food waste for small appetites

[soupyspoon]

I like to think I get a really good variety of plant fodder in each week as I cook with a wide range of spices and herbs and veg etc

I think on another thread some months ago I calculated a meal I had cooked which had around 40 'points' just in that one meal

However I think what happens on average is that the same thing is eaten for many days on end until its used up (as I will not throw food away!) and then on to the next thing. The freezer is completely full of various batch cooking and then bags of frozen veg so theres no room really for more, its one in, one out at the moment

Ive had WLS which means I eat very small portions, for example Im going to roast up a cauliflower today and that will last me over a week in the fridge, added to other things even if I eat some every day.

So today Ive downloaded a plant counting app and Ive totted up 9.5 entries

But I suspect that tomorrow may well be the same 9.5 entries and so on and so on

I dont want to create a load of food waste, what do other people do when cooking small amounts?

Is anyone else doing this?

I wrote roofs the other day and didnt think it ooked right but I think it is right

No Im not afeard of jars/tins/frozen veg and fruit (not really a bit fruit eater), I think they're great

But even a tin I have to find a way to divvy it up and make it into portions I can eat

Im often on cooking threads bigging up frozen veg. People are shocked by that at times!!!

I think there was a thread running recently about osmoene trying to improve her shopping list and there wasnt much fresh veg on it and some posters couldnt get their heads round the fact that you dont need to buy fresh veg every single week because theres already bags of it in the freezer!!
