Clare County Council is encouraging people to transform leftovers into other meals over the Christmas period. Each year, households accumulate an average of 120kg of food waste, amounting to a cost of up to €700 for families. Alongside purchasing what you need, the local authority is advising people to create different recipes to use up excess food and reduce the amount thrown into bins. Environmental Awareness Officer, Karen Foley says making a list of essential items when shopping can also help reduce food waste.
