    A tip for that leftover fruit salad, turn it into freezer jam. Just puree it all, add in the correct amount of sugar and fruit for each batch, I usually follow the strawberry freezer jam recipe in the Sure Jell box and process by following the directions. I call it my Summer blend jam and it is amazing!!

    Why you need to add the "correct" amount of sugar if you're freezing it? Not canning it.

    I save a bag in the freezer of various buns and bread heels that are torn apart in cubes. When the bag is filled up I toss it with egg awash and let it soak overnight. In the morning I sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top and bake at 350. ---French toast casserole ‼️

    I have learned so much from your videos. I was so proud of myself this week. I had almost a pound of hamburger cooked with white gravy. No one wanted to eat that ever. I found a half box of bow tie noodles. Instead of buying egg noodles, I used the bow ties. There was almost 1/2 block of cream cheese, 1/2 cup delicious brown gravy and almost 1/2 cup of sour cream left. I added it all together. 😊It made a huge batch of beef stroganoff that everyone wants to eat. We’ve been busy freezing blueberries, corn and strawberries on sale.

    My husband’s birthday was Wednesday. It’s the one time of the year that we go out to a fine restaurant for steak. (My favorite is different.) Anyway we ended up with 2-3 servings each of mushrooms and the same with Brussels sprouts. We added mushrooms to our scrambled eggs the next morning; then I made a cream soup out of the rest. I made a separate cream soup of the Brussels sprouts! We are our leftover entrees the next day for lunch. We do not waste food…and certainly not when we have paid a pretty penny for it!

    I always say, “friends don’t let friends let their leftovers go bad.” I remind coworkers at work to set an alarm on their phone or write themselves a note to take their leftovers home with them if they went out to lunch at work. Or if somebody gets pizza, I suggest they put it in a food container instead of letting it dry out in the box inside the fridge.

    When we BBQ we like to cook a lot of food so that we can use it for leftovers. Well I made some shish-ka-bobs and some side veggies this time. We ate it that way, then we ate it over rice with some extra veggies on the side. Then I took my leftover shish-ka-bobs and removed them from the skewers. I then took freezer bags and separated that and all the veggies into the bags to serve over rice as like a bowl type meal, or stir fry. I got 4 meals from it for easy meals for future use. I call that a win for that one dinner that we cooked.

    I remember my Grandma making Skorps in the 70s with leftover rolls. I come from a Swedish background and all the old Swedes in my family had 3 o'clock tea and or coffee each day. Skorps were a frugal sweet treat at 3 o'clock coffee. I thought maybe it was just butter, sugar and cinnamon on thin strips of rolls but the recipes I'm finding on the internet also say cardamom and allspice. You toast them in the oven. I don't think my Grandma added those last 2 ingredients. Alone they were very dry but you ate them with coffee of tea. It's a fond childhood memory for me.

    I used to gladly take all the left over veggie tray contents home from potluck/ buffet type events complete with those dribbled by dip and wilting. Once home i grew them in a colander, washed the dressing off, chopped or diced as needed,and tossed them directly in a crockpot or pot for some type of a soup or stew., Next stop was a clean out of tge fridge followed by a purview of the freezer. Lastly it was look at what i had, maybe add some onions or garlic, maybe add a little bullion type product.

    I can’t find my original comment from a few weeks ago, but wanted to share this with you. Enjoy!! Any others also! Family recipe!! Squash Relish: •12 c shredded squash (or zucchini) •4 c chopped onion •2 c chopped green pepper •2 c chopped sweet red pepper •2 c (or to taste) chopped jalapeño •2TBS salt •2 1/2 c white vinegar •5 c sugar •3/4 tsp turmeric •1 tsp mustard seed •1 tsp black pepper ••Mix all ingredients in a dish pan, boil/cook 20 minutes. (Time from point of full boil) Have jars and tips in HOT water; dip HOT mixture into HOT jar, using funnel, place tip, tighten ring, set to side to cool…will seal as it cools. DO NOT move until completely cool and sealed. Wipe jars and store. This will make approximately 5-7 quarts, depending on how full you fill. I refrigerate after opening, but won’t spoil if you don’t… I serve on beans, peas, in potato salad, chicken, tuna, egg salad… got a friend puts on his hot dogs! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Let me know how you like it!

    Great Tips as always! We had leftovers for lunch today and still have burger buns left over. I never thought of making them into garlic bread, but that is exactly what I will be doing now 🙂 Here is a tip regarding the pastry/bread in the Ziploc bags: Use any kind of drinking straw (I keep some just for this purpose) and stick it into the bag to a point where there is an air pocket. Then seal the top all the way to the straw. Now through the straw suck as much air out of the bag as possible. With your last sucks, pull the straw already a bit more to the top. Then pull out the straw and seal the bag completely immediately. You have to be fast! Now you have a nicely vacuumed bag, but not as much as with the FoodSaver which would smash the content.

    We joined a CSA this year and have a lot of produce that the two of us cannot eat up before they go bad. I’ve been dehydrating greens, freezing the extra zucchini into 2 cup portions for zucchini bread come fall and winter, and trying new dishes with things we have never eaten before. I don’t believe in food waste either. Great video with wonderful ideas. Thanks so much. I really like the way you’ve done your hair. It looks soft and very summery. Take care.

    I'm a single retired lady so i can relate. Most frozen meat and fish are at least 4 servings. I have an electric food saver like Paul uses. I take the items out of the store bag and seal them in individual portion food saver bags and then put them back in the original package. That way, I avoid freezer burn on the items I don't use right away and get the cheaper price per unit. I usually shop for my meat and fish once every few weeks and do all the food saver work just as soon as I get home.

    Oh those flaky yummy desserts would not need to be frozen, that would be all my meals for a day or two… lol😂. Great ideas! My 80 year old mom came down with covid and due to my saving leftovers, I was able to make a huge batch of chicken rice soup with homemade stock! She said it was the best cure! Good thinking outside the box with some of the leftovers instead of just freezing as is. Thanks guys!! ❤

    One thing I always have trouble finding is guidelines on how long different things need to be frozen individually before they’ll be frozen hard enough to transfer to freezer bags or vacuum sealed. My web searches are more often than not in vain.

    Usually within 4 hours things are pretty frozen solid if your freezer is running efficiently. If they are not frozen all the way add a couple more hours in the freezer.

    Emmy thank you for the tips. I have one you’ve probably used. When storing foods in a ziplock bag especially for the freezer I seal the bag up to about 1/2” then I insert a straw in the opening seal it as much as possible and suck out the remaining air with the straw. I know it sounds crazy but it works. I learned this when I used to decorate cakes.

    I've had my parents visiting for a week and we had a heatwave and my mum said to leave the food they contributed as she would rather I had it than have it go bad on the 2 hour journey home. That meant we got in and back out for supplies, so my parents had food. I have had a week of leftovers and enjoyed every meal. My dad gave me a fresh colliflower from his garden and I came home and added a few other veg to make a veggie curry, then blitz the rest and made 6 soup portions, which I have frozen. Happy days for leftovers 😋 Loved some of the comments with ideas ❤ from this community 😊 Blessings from Leicester England xx

I freeze a lot of foods so that I don't waste anything. The freezer is indeed a great asset. By the way, your nails looked especially gorgeous with that colour you were wearing Emmy. I wish you both a really good week. May God bless you both.❤

    I’m new to ur channel been watching about a month. I love the tips.some I knew. I m 62 separated from abusive situation.Been living on my own 3 years in august. It’s hard to cook for one. I also just not into cooking like I used to. I’m going to try ur pasta salad dish looks easy. I do share food with neighbor we swap all kinds of stuff. I find that to save $. I live within short walking distance to produce discount place but sometimes u have to buy in bulk.So my neighbor and I will get different produce and swap what we have. I m making extra food when I do cook to freeze for later.my freezer small. I live in studio apartment in small town outside of Philly.Prices high here. I also live a minimalist lifestyle and trying to build emergency fund. I try for zero food waste now.Ur videos are inspiring. I have cooked for over 40years and Emmy u can do circles around me.never thought of some of ur ideas.Also I like a lot of same foods u & ur husband eat. I don’t really get fancy with dinner.anymore warm weather food dishes would be appreciated.can’t eat much when temperatures at 104 & 105 here.cucumber salad a lot yummy lol.Have a great day I think you 2 r sweet
