Sustainability July Challenge! Plastic free breakfast and lunch.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- One thing I am doing for Sustainability July is to try to come up with three meals that I can make that are (relatively) plastic free. This is something that will take brainstorming and refining as I go along. It just occurred to me that I could make the toppings for the bruschetta without having to buy jars (but in my world, where I am not much of a cook, buying in jars is probably more realistic anyway).
Visit the plasticfreejuly.com site to find out more about trying to reduce our consumption of plastic.
Two books I am reading for Sustainability July are:
Essays from The Gift of Good Land by Wendell Berry
Zero Waste Living; The 80/20 Way by Stephanie J. Miller
This is so inspiring! It makes you think how plastic is everywhere in stores!
It is ubiquitous!
You are fortunate to have so many great options available! I used to make granola, many long years ago. Thanks for the French bread serving suggestion - I bought some when I was in Oregon yesterday and wasn't sure what to do with it. I wonder if there's any Bruschetta available in our local market. They do have some organic foods. I treasure my jar lids and would not want to recycle them. I use some of them in my art room for putting paints into, like little palettes. They are especially helpful for inks, and my acrylic inks. I use other lids for jars in which I store leftovers rather than using plastic containers.
@@Eldertalk that is so good that you use jar lids! If you have olive oil and some tomato or bell peppers you can easily make a bruschetta topping.
@@faithbooks7906 Thanks, that is good to know because I went to the store and there was absolutely NO bruschetta or sun dried tomatoes!! This is the only store in at least 40 miles. I have to order a lot of things online.
@@Eldertalk I think how much one can do really depends on location. I have started ordering things from Thrive Market. I think the price is pretty good and they have lots of things that are plastic free (relatively speaking).
Hi! Totally unrelated: how can I join your Discord group? The invite in a previous video comes up as "invalid". I first encountered your channel shortly before the "WeLoveJenny" event, and I enjoyed listening to the "Dorothy Day Livestream" discussion on Christy Luis' channel. Thanks!
