This month, join local chef Mariah as she whips up a batch of sustainable cooking tips, including how to use the whole ingredient (yes, even those "ugly" veggie bits!), and freeze leftovers to reduce waste in the kitchen. She’ll spill the beans on creative ways to cut down on food waste, save some dough, and make the most out of every meal. Mariah will inspire you to chop, freeze, and sauté your way to a greener kitchen!
