Right people the no waste food challenge seems to be going really well. Thank you all for hopping on board and helping us all to waste less food. I have chosen yoghurt for this month's challenge as it is another one of those things that often languishes in the fridge in random quantities. It would be great to see a range of recipes some using lots of yoghurt and some just using a leftover spoonful.
Part of me wishes that I had chosen mincemeat for this month as I have already cooked with my leftover mincemeat twice this month but I thought it would sound a bit random. However, having mentioned it on twitter there does seem to be a few people with leftover mincemeat. I will definitely add this to the list for January or February next year.
I would love this challenge to be useful to everyone so if you have something that you always struggle to use up do let me know and I will set it as one of the challenges.

Like me, you all seem to hate wasting food so you may be interested to know that 12 - 18 March 2012 is Climate Week. As part of the week we are being encouraged to enter challenges and try to 'eat low carbon', which includes cooking with leftovers. There are lots of recipe ideas and there is a chance to enter recipes on the site too.
I am away for a bit of next week but I will be doing my best to support this and hopefully finding time to make a low carbon meal.
