I remember being shocked and diving for the garbage when a girl visiting our cottage threw out a peach because it had a bruise. The British apparently throw out about 3 million tonnes of fruits and vegetables each year, but our fruits and vegetables don't have to be in pristine condition to provide nutrition, fibre, or even taste. Rather than wasting your wrinkly produce--and you know you have it--take the advice from the people at Smart Planet. They've got loads of easy recipes that can help you rescue forlorn-looking fruit.
Recipes for apples, tomatoes, potatoes, bananas, spinach, oranges, lemons, berries, broccoli and carrots are included. They are all fast and easy to do.
