I love getting a "Waste not" box from Lidl. These boxes of joy contain vegetables which are at their sell-by date, or the bags have split or are damaged in in some way .
This morning, for £2 I got
500 g pointed sweet peppers (paprika)
5000g carrots
750g cherry tomatoes
2 apples
500g grapes
1750g potatoes.
I had to sling a couple of tomatoes and I cut sections off a couple of carrots but everything you see here is useable. Not bad for £2.
Many people are unwilling to take these but I enjoy the challenge of using everything - I waste not
