From personal experience I can say there is no more surprising culinary delight than a gourmet dish concocted out of kitchen scraps and refrigerator odds and ends. Give the kids extra points for researching online recipes for stuff left in the cabinets so you can re-use expiring ingredients and eliminate waste.
Watching an episode of Gordon Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares, a vegetarian restaurant in Paris needed some help. What I got out of the episode: a carrot gratinee? Shredded carrots in Parmesan cheese lightly roasted in stock. Brilliant no-waste cuisine that is nutritious. Recycle your veggies and re-use the foods that matter.
