"If you find your fridge packed with produce that you know you won’t be able to eat fast enough, don’t bring it to the trash. Instead, add fresh vegetables to a big batch of soup or tomato sauce, bake a fruit-filled pie, or simply steam your vegetables, let them cool, and keep them in the freezer for another day."     - Janel Ovrut, MS, RD, LDN
