With many people planning to prepare and consume a wide variety of delicious food this holiday season, it is also a time to consider how to best avoid wasting food.
According to Penn State Extension, cooking for a larger number of people than normal can result in miscalculations leading to expensive food waste.
Tips to follow to avoid food waste include thoughtful planning before purchasing and preparing food as well as securing leftovers in a timely manner and repurposing those leftovers in new ways such as soups or casseroles. Giving recent leftovers to someone in need is also an option.
The Penn State Extension website is a good resource to learn more about food safety.
