Mace has launched a Food… Too Good To Waste initiative in collaboration with STOPFoodWaste.ie, which aims to help people make the most of their food, keep it fresher for longer and avoid food waste.
On average, every household disposes of €700 worth of food each year.
Mace wants to make 2025 the year that people reduce the amount of food they waste and are launching a new campaign to help people make something lovely with their leftovers.
According to StopFoodWaste.ie – the government funded website – the everyday foods that most go to waste are salads, fruit and vegetables, bread, meat and fish, and yoghurts and milk, as well as other dairy products.
To help combat this everyday waste, Mace has partnered with chef, author and influencer Conor Spacey to bring shoppers a series of recipes using the foods that are most wasted in Ireland.
The six recipe videos will be published on Mace’s social media platforms throughout March and April and will help families to make the most of their grocery shop and play their part in the Stop Food Waste movement.
The recipes and their release dates are as follows:
- Roast vegetable frittata – Saturday 1 March
- Vegetable pasta bake – Tuesday 11 March
- Yoghurt flatbreads with spicy chicken – Friday 21 March
- Sunday leftovers curry – Monday 31 March
- Potato and carrot gnocchi – Thursday 10 April
- Strawberry blondies – Monday 21 April
All recipes will be available on www.mace.ie/food-too-good-to-waste and videos will be available on the Mace YouTube channel.
