One way you can embrace #WasteNotWednesday is to employ root-to-leaf eating. This simply means eating more of your fruits and vegetables than what we normally think of as edible. For example, you can cook and eat the leaves of cauliflower and the stems of broccoli (hence the chosen image). It is important, however, to research your fruits and veggies, because leaves, stems and other parts could potentially make you sick. Know before you cook!
