Logan’s local businesses and community groups have once again assisted in providing recipe ideas with a focus on reducing food waste. Five local businesses and community organisations have submitted eleven new recipes with a focus on converting leftovers, and food just past its “best before” date, into delicious and nutritious dinners and desserts. Six of the recipes were selected to be turned into recipe cards for distribution to the community at Council special events. The cards also contain practical information on how to best store and prepare food that will save both money and the environment. There are now eleven different ‘Think Food, Rethink Waste’ recipe cards available for the community and, based on the positive feedback received, submissions are now being invited from local businesses, community groups, school students and residents, with a view to compiling all the recipes into an online eRecipe Book for residents of Logan City.
