The August 2015 #NoWasteFoodChallenge Round Up!
Did you know that more than 15 million tonnes of food is wasted in UK homes every year, most of which is still perfectly edible?
In the No Waste Food Challenge food bloggers from around the world are asked to share their recipes where they help prevent food waste, using up that last little bit of cream, how to rescue seized chocolate, what to do with those bits and bobs left lurking in the bottom of the fridge or in the back of the cupboard.
I am constantly inspired by the variety of recipes which appear in this round up each month, you guys are all awesome!
A great big thank you to everyone who linked up last month. Guest hosts will be taking over this challenge for the rest of the year, and this month Claire over at Foodie Quine is holding down the fort! You can find the current challenge HERE.

Deep Dish Apple & Sultana Crumble
There are great ideas here! My mother is successfully reducing her and my father’s food waste and I’m sure she’ll be very glad to have some new recipes on mind. I’m definitely recommending your post to her and to some friends too. Thanks for the nice suggestions!
This is great! Impressed at the variety and how well this list was put together!
Great links and tips here, thanks for sharing!
What a great roundup. So much inspiration, I don’t know where to start.
Love all these recipes and in particular the Blackcurrant Vinegar which I must check out:-) Thanks for all your hard work running this great challenge Elizabeth and enjoy the break:-)
What a great collection!!! The Zucchini and Orange Marmalade Muffins with Cranberry and Pecans look especially tempting as I’m drinking my tea 🙂
Thank you for including my ice pops recipe as well.
A great round up! I especially like the sound of the Cherry Almond Crumble Cake 🙂 xx
I agree with you Elizabeth…. the inspiration each month from left overs is incredible! Thanks for hosting…. will look forward to joining in with your guest hosts!
What a great collection of budget-busting recipes. I can’t want to try some of them. I’m especially intrigued by the idea of making my own fruit vinegar…
A lovely collection of recipes there!
You have amazing recipes here! I’m not very good in the kitchen. My husband is the one who enjoys cooking so he might like to have a look to this. 🙂 x
Hi there, they look amazing!! I’m following you on Pinterest to see all your latest recipes. xx
