leftovers (salmon, ham, bacon, broccoli etc.) can easily be thrown into a quiche and turned into another meal. I mix leftovers with 3 eggs, 1/4 cup cream, 1 cup grated cheese and some salt and pepper and pour into to a pre-made frozen pie shell and bake at 350 for about an hour. Cooked quiche can be frozen (after cooled) for about 2 months.

Grate or chop broccoli stalks and make as you would any slaw. Nice alternative to cabbage.

Rice- add leftover rice to meatloaf. I’ve also pureed leftover veggies and added them to the meatloaf – the kids never knew they were eating veggies!

Ok, last one…
recycle your toilet paper rolls- for small animals (holds hay for rabbits or other small critters.)

Livestock feed (chickens love some of that stuff.)

Bread a little old (but not too old)- Breadpudding.

Bread again-fishing bait.

Egg shells- great for your garden (keeps snails out and adds calcium.) You can also heat up the shell and feed them back to your chickens.

Vermicomposting is GREAT idea that someone else said. Just don’t add dairy (it can sometimes start to stink.)

Old lard can be used for goats with udder issues. It can also be used for chickens with mites on their legs.

I could go on and on but I have to get out to milk.
