Juggling June Use It Up and Recycle Challenge

Post by Jackielou »

So far this month I have used up the leftover pasta, the leftover cabbage rolls, a dozen eggs, various pieces of fabric, some thread, and a loaf of bread.

Recycled a knit nightie into rags after cutting off the buttons to put in the button jar.

4 - Slices of Bread to make bread crumbs for the Roasted Cauliflower Dish

I have added whatever fresh or canned veggies that I need for a meal.

So far, we've finished a package of frozen cod fillets, some left-over penne with accompanying sauce, some tuna/noodle bake casserole and left over green beans. Added small tossed salads for each of us. Made a left-over supper.

I am working (still) on using up a stash of canned tomato soup. I have found that by adding some broccoli or rice or something to it, it makes a decent lunch for me at work. Two cans used up last week - 5 remain.

I rinsed out the laundry soap bottle to get enough to do a big load of laundry yesterday.

Used some newspaper to clean my bathroom window and the glass in the medicine cabinet.

Using an 8 gallon pail as a trash can under my kitchen sink. I line it with plastic grocery bags and once those are full I tie them shut and they go into a larger trash bag.

I took empty cans and bottles (left here by the FORMER S.O.) to the store and got the $2.70 credit off my groceries.
