APPLE

DON'T WASTE APPLE PEEL

You need to buy organic apples of course or to brush them carefully.

Apple peels bring a big boost of fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin A and the flavonoid Quercitin which has antioxidant properties helpful in preventing cancer and reducing heart attacks.

... you can chop them - and mandarin peel too 

... like I did to be added to my muffins recipe

... delicious 😋

DON'T WASTE PRUNED ROSEMARY

... use it for your dishes like my flatbread 

... chop the rest with a little sage, bay leaf and coarse salt 

... and you get an aromatic salt ready to be used

PICKLED VEGETABLES

DON'T WASTE YOUR PICKLED VEGETABLES LEFTOVERS

I made pickled vegetables today and nothing went into the waste bin

.... after preparing my veggies (blanched in water and vinegar)

ORANGE - MANDARIN - TANGERINE AND CO

DON'T WASTE YOUR ORANGE OR MANDARIN PEEL

· they can be candied
· dry the peel to keep enjoying the flavor for months
· or make marmelade

PARSLEY
