What to do with that one sad carrot? Making a Meal of It is a guide to making the most of the food we feel guilty about throwing away.

Bursting with tips, ideas and recipes, this book tells you how to buy the best, keep it fresh, and make use of every bit - and, when you forget, how to restore and revive. The ideas are simple and flexible, from tasty solutions for last night's leftovers to easy recipes for a bulk buy or garden harves. Arranged in alphabetical order by ingredient, from Apple to Zucchini with lots of fruits and vegetables in between, plus bread, cake & biscuits, cheese, chicken, egg, herbs, meat & rice.

Tuck in and make a meal of it. You’ll save time and money, and a bit of the planet too.

Find out:

• which everyday vegetable is healthier cooked than raw
• what staple causes food poisoning in the home
• why you shouldn't put a vase of flowers near the fruit bowl
• why apes peel their bananas from the other end
